why is it growing like that?

Id say most of the rapid new growth is from a combonation 2 things, the new additional 42 watt light blubs and the fish emultion organic fertilizer that was burning your plant. The reason I say the fish emultion ferilizer is because your plant was getting burned but not killed (what doesnt kill you only makes you stronger) while it was younger and now as it progresses and ages it is ultilizing the orcanic matters which it can now use and everything that was built up has been burned though and the uptake with the larger root system of nutriets is casuing it to explode in rapid new growth!
I wouldnt let that thing dry out much over the next 3 weeks and I would fert it with waterings and see what it does. Then once growth has slowed I would start letting it dry out a little more before putting it into 12/12 and then fert the hell out of it for a good week after you have put 12/12 on it and then just increase or decrease your ferts accordingly throughout flower.

As for now Id say 18/6 for the lights bro!

Best of luck, Keep er Green and Growin!

Can't see it, try and get a closer pic of that leaf. Although during flower leaves tend to die and fall off. It's normal, just pick them up and discard them. But I dont think it would happen within the first couple weeks of flower when youre just seeing sex.

Also, congrats on your lady!

Yeah I would say if anything it would be an mg deficiency as well. I would do a flush before trying to fix it though. And a check of pH just to be thorough and all

Epsom salts. You should be able to find it at any drug store. Keep in mind that Mg lockout could be caused by too much Ca, Cl, ammonium nitrogen, or K. And that too much Mg can cause lockout of other nutes, particularly Ca and K. 1 tbs/gal epsom salts to fix deficiency, but read your ladies, theyll tell ya if it's too much or too little ;)

Hell yeah rasta, its good to see yer coming this far! I know I havent been on much but its been so busy at work and then taking care of the girls too!

I would also say its a cal/mg defiency. Sounds like you have some advice to go on now too, just try a good healthy flush first and then see what happens over a weeks time!

Best of luck and keep em green n growin bro!
