Why do my leaves look like this???

I’ve had this mother for 3 and a half months. It’s still in a 5 gallon container idk if that’s relative. I’ve been feeding nutrients once a week, water when drooping or sad. Also don’t know if it’s a problem, but when I water, nutes or straight water, I don’t let much run off come out of the pot. I don’t want this strain to die:(((

Going off another post it looks like too much Nitrogen but I would await the expert growers advice....

It could totally be that, a little while back I added in some more N because I believed it was lacking it. I might have done the opposite and gave it to

There is a trick IME to keeping mothers for prolonged periods of time.

Root ball manipulation.

and light feeding to keep clones viable.

This is a classic case of too much food.

You want your leaves to appear light green not heavy dark green.

So I should just water down my nute mix for right now? I lowered the Ph of my feed and normal water because I heard it can be nicer to the plant if done. Any tips to fixing it??

You won’t fix already affected leaves.

but yes you need to reduce your feed down.

the heavier N the short internodal distance

the lighter the feed the more length the internodes will have.

light closer = shorter node spacing
Light further away = more space between nodes.

Okay gotchya, I’ll definitely be lowering the amount of feed I give

so After I posted about this, I flushed the 5 gal pot with 5 gallons of water. Gave it a few days, and then transplanted it Into a 10 gal pot. Why is this still happening and it’s been 2 weeks!!! Is it dying???

Is it the same leaf or a new one?

Effected growth will never return to normal and will slowly get worse over time.

You need to be looking at other growth that wasn’t previously effected

As stated over fed. Also sounds like you are letting the medium get too dry between waterings. Probably have some salt build up also in the medium. A good flush wouldn't hurt.

Edit: sorry didn't see your post on flushing and repot.

Alright, I’ll have to look closer. I Dident know if they were already affected they were still gonna die. I don’t believe it was new growth

Whenever you correct an issue you can only ever look to the unaffected and new growth to see if it is slowing down or stopped etc.
