Looks like you have a nitrogen overdose going on. The tips of the leaves are pointed down and all of the leaflets are folding ddownward. I personally would back off of the nitrogen, other than that plants look great. just my 2 cents.

Shouldn't be a nitrogen overdose, and I can't really back off anymore cause I've given them a minimal amount.

The leaf curling is a common trait of Dj Short gear. They are showing no other signs of nitrogen overdose and the back-up mother cuts I have in veg are doing the same leaf curl.

I believe there is an issue of complication occurring though as the plants don't seem to be performing at an optimum level. I am leaning more towards over or under watering issues. Perhaps issues of being root bound. I have ants that have made the potters their home and I feel like they've interfered with root development binding up the root growth and water distribution throughout the plant.

But Im not certain, perhaps it is an overfeeding of nitrogen.

F-13 #4 (the mutant) @ 46 days in flower. She's the earliest finisher so far. Got a solid week to two weeks left.
Colors of the flowers are an amazing violet blue with tinges of silver and undersides of the leaf are purple. A truly stunningly beautiful plant. Im so stoked to get the opportunity to grow these.

What's the aroma like coming off them? Sure are looking stellar.

This plant grows medium tall to tall. It was vegged for approximately 4-5 weeks until the smallest of the 14 plants reached the 8th node @ which time a clone was taken of each to secure back-up cuts. Many of the plants grew side branching within this amount of time that was long enough to clone allowing me to leave most of them un-topped. Plants were vegged under a T-5 with 8 (51 watt) bulbs @ 18/6. And for the last several days of their veg they were placed under a 600 watt MH lamp.

By the time they were placed in flower they were on average 13-16 inches tall from the base of their trunk. And @ the 46th day in flower they're an average of 40-50 inches tall. There are 9 females total and all are in 2 gallon pots. Five of them are under a 600 watt HPS and four are under a 400 watt HPS.

Overall I am completely impressed with this strain. It is one of if not the most beautiful plants to date that I've grown. The resin production is ridiculous making them look like they've been sprinkled with tiny diamonds. And the dark lush green and purple colors contrasting with the sparkling of the resin is gorgeous.

The smell is complex and rich with sweet incense and floral orange blossom skunk musk. It's pretty amazing and smells reminiscent of what we used to refer to as killer green bud in high school. Lots of sweet, spicy, skunk musk coming off of them.

The one critique I will give it is that it really did produce minimally. Normally I don't mind such a trait and just chalk it up. But this time I am a little bummed because I know how dank this smoke is gonna be and I really would like as much of it as I can have. I'll have to make arrangements to be growing more of this ASAP.
