What the hell is wrong with her?

I had one of these exact same traits with an unknown strain that I got sent from some seed banks as a freebie, you know when you spent over ex amount of £££'s etc. It didn't quite have the leaf issue you talk about but them swollen stems on the buds were like brocolli. I had no idea what it was and didn't have another to compare it to, I just thought it was lack of light so I shifted it right under the 600 from been at the back, put it on a bucket as it was about 16" shorter than any of the other 5 (NL x BB) I think and 1 week later the stems were covered in calxy's and ginger hairs! We thought it was an Orange Bud x or something but it were a mega strong smoke and produced about 3.5 ounce dry, I wish I'd have kept one of them now. I've got a snap of it somewhere...

I know what it is, I posted a link to it. It's crap with a buzz word that appeals to the gullible pot growing newbie - "kind". Well, it's not "kind" to your plants.

You can't follow any one's instructions regarding application. No two gardens are the same. Their instructions & feed charts are only designed to sell products. They know who they're selling to don't know any better.

note the use of the word usually. I don't order nutes online. I live in a full prohibition state so I have nothing delivered to me and especially not my location. I rely on the local store and what they have available. Again, not a newbie, it was comparably priced to all other choices and was actually less complex. When I say I follow the instructions I mean I typically mix the amount of nutrients per liter of water listed on the chart, but of course I realize that no two gardens or even plants are the same and so I make adjustments. I have a bs in botany so I know plenty about plant nutrition. I love these plants and what I do. U seem to be under the impression that I fall into the category of someone who doesn't care about cannabis and just wants to make money or something. I'm not. Ur the one that said "kind" tells u nothing. I missed the link, excuse me, was trying to clarify. I'm not a newb or uninformed - rather it seems to me that ur an elitist that wants to give me a hard time because u think u know more than me. Don't take it so personal when someone disagrees with u or uses a product U've deemed for use by people who aren't "serious" enough. I may not be a newb, but I can tell u this is the kind of thing that prevents newbies from asking more questions on riu. U ask a question and end up getting criticized and made to feel as though ur not a "real" grower. Kind works just fine, and so do a thousand other things. Go smoke that joint bro.

There's no such thing as a newb friendly nute when it comes to this industry. They're gonna trip you up until you end up on a forum crying "why do my leaves curl, do they need epsom salts?"

This is newb friendly food, should be used from start to finish, very high quality and high performance (strong) with a great bang to the buck that can't be matched by any vendor. http://www.amazon.com/77900-Performance-Fertilizer-25-5-15-25-Pound/dp/B008JSIKCU/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_0_1

That brand is what I was talking about for commercial nutes. The one you link to has a large amount of urea in it so I wouldn't expect it to be recommended for hydro or coco, but maybe soil. There are two other versions that would be better for hydro from Jacks/JR Peters.

When you make this statement of "Not that low in N." and you have an imbalance whereby P is much higher than N......

I think that food would be well suited for coco. I noticed that the Amazon seller scanned the 20-20-20, not the 25-5-15. The latter is quite high in nitrates, fairly low in ammonicals. What the source of the ammonical N is I don't know. It's either something like urea or ammonium sulfate or nitrate. Can't find the info. Here's the NPK values - http://www.jrpeters.com/Products/Jack-s-Professional/Jack-s-Pro/General-Purpose-Formulas/25-5-15-High-Performance.html

I use the Jacks 20-20-20 for veg however during flower I find the N might be a bit too high. Any input?
