• Can someone help me understand Clawing a little better, seems like everytime I get 4 or 5 weeks into Flower I start to get just a little Claw on mostly the older Fan leaves. I do see it a lot on other pictures as well. Is that Normal. I know there are several factors can cause this. Environment etc. I would like to try and narrow down Please. Cap Junki S1 Day 29

      • Does this happen with all the cultivars you run or Cap specifically?

              @HoneyIslandGenetics ph 5.8 all through veg. Week 1&2 5.9-6.0 Week 3&4 6.1 Week 5 6.2. That is just what I believe I’ve learned creep up. General hydroponics PH down. City water that is in room 68 degrees for 3 days before mixing, as I cycle through. Is there a better PH down for end result. Thank I appreciate

            • I think it’s pretty normal but I’m interested to hear from someone with more experience.

              In my opinion your plants look healthy, leaves are praying, no signs of hunger, bud frost is on point for where they’re at. As far as I can tell your on point for a nice harvest.

              If I had to guess, those older leaves are getting less energy from the plant as it’s putting a lot of energy into developing flowers, therefore they might not have the same turgidity as the younger leaves. Also our lights are usually at their most intense at this stage of growth so it might be the plant reducing its exposure on the larger leaves?

              Either way, thems some sexy ladies.

            • Leaves can ‘claw’ for different reasons. Clawing down at just the tip is the initial sign of nitrogen toxicity before they burn. Half the leaf curled down is an indication of wind stress. The entire leaf clawing down is typically watering or root pest related.

                @jmystro Thank you, makes sense. I do have a good amount of air pressure going through that room, as my house is my lung. Because there are many leaves on same plant that are not clawing. Some areas do get a little more. I learned the hard way about air movement. Good Stuff, I really appreciate.
