A few questions (flowering)

So all my fault, I mis-measured the nutes and fed waay too much nitrogen causing toxicity. I think she over came it as i clipped the "clawed" leafs and no new ones formed except in the nugs.

Tomorrow will be the last day of week 4 of flower.

Questions: does it look like shes ok after the nitro toxicity?

When do the buds start to swell?

I noticed where the first pistills came out, those are swolen and look amazing - when will the rest?

Thanks!!

I should have mentioned..


Been 2 weeks since the toxicity and i flushed for 2 days. A lot.

Looks good, really green yet maybe still high nitrogen? Not toxic but high. And alot of strains dont really fatten up the calyx's till about the last 2 weeks

Thanks man! Much appreciated input.

The dark green is for sure reminance of the nitrogen toxicity - I flushed hard, then did 1/4 strength, just finished up 1/2 strength on tonights feed, and now will bring her to about 85% of the normal nutes.

I ask about the calyx because this was a lucky seed i found in a bag of girlscout cookies and the first few calyx that showed sex are now huge and extremely fat. So if thats any indication of what's to come; i will be super happy.

Just want her to hurry up and be done so i can move in my fem widow and purple nepal

She's perty

Looks like she has recovered well.. looking good.

Nitrogen is the most easily utilized element by plants and the one that depletes most quickly. Keep going. It will get over it.

I did not know that they would use it that readily.

That's why they show burn so quickly witxh nitrogen. Go short on it. It's very easy to add more.Basically most plants, not just pot, are sensitive to nitrogen or the need for it.

"Nitrogen (N): Very mobile

Nitrogen, macronutrient: important for growth

“In Cannabis gardens, nitrogen deficiency is the most common nutrient deficiency„
Nitrogen deficient leaves will contain relatively little chlorophyll, and will thus tend to be pale green or yellow in color; plants will have slowed growth. Nitrogen is very mobile in plants, and this enables them to readily move supplies where they are most required. Such transference is common from old growth to young growing tips when supplies are short. This mobility and re-utilization of nitrogen explains why deficiency symptoms appear first in the older parts of plants, working their way up to the grow tips. This same type of 'symptom-creep' from bottom to top is common to all mobile nutrients.

An overabundance of nitrogen can cause accelerated growth at the expense of structural strength. Too much available nitrogen can also inhibit flowering in some plants.

Some common sources of nitrogen are potassium nitrate (13-0-44), ammonium nitrate (34-0-0) and sodium nitrate (16-0-0). Personal favorites include blood meal (12-0-0), alfalfa meal (2-1-2) and compost (3-1-2)."

Quick update - she is deff starting to get frosty. You can see in the 2nd pic the calyx's that first came up and now look beautiful and fatt.
