6 week strain or just heavy yielder? Showing nitro deficiency?

I put this plant in to flower on the 12/2. Its 12/18 and the thing already has a fully formed cola. Its also showing what i think is major nitrogen def.

I planted the seed first week of november so it had just about 3 weeks of growth prior to flowering. I fed two times before flower with half strength grow big nutes. Using FFOF soil.

Any experienced growers can confirm this is nitrogen def?

Also is this a 6 week strain or just a heavy yielder? I dont know the name of it, i got it as a freebie.

Yea man looks like n def I just had that my plants looked very similar to urs. I gave a half strength dose of grow and they rebounded for me

How many feedings did you give it?

I read that FF recommends feeding veg nutes weeks 3-4 of flower.

FF recommends to feed nutes every other watering. So if you are heavy into flower and you havent been feeding them then Id say its nute deficiency.

grow big instructions say to feed every other watering. It's good to start out with less, but you have to taper it up, and if you are only watering twice in 21 days I'd say you are using pots that are too large. Though the plant itself doesn't mind more room, controlling moisture and nutes becomes exceedingly difficult. Transplanting is an important part of gardening

You also want to continue with flowering nutes in flower. How long it'll be is anyones guess. Learn how to recognize when it nears ripeness by looking at hairs, trichs, glow.

and...you still have about 2 weeks until harvest by the look of that cola

Thats what ive been doing, however i do not think the yellowing is a lack of K.

I am using gh flora bloom which is 0-5-4.

Could be why they are showing n def this early.

Where did i say i watered twice in 21 days? I am in flower right now and not in veg feeding phase. Sice i am in week 3 of flowering i did start feeding veg nutes like FF recommends.

2 weeks? Its been about 2 weeks since i flowered.

4 week strain? I think thats highly unlikely.

Maybe 4 weeks left?

Im not kidding bro. I put it in to 12/12 on 12/2 around 7PM. So 2 1/2 weeks old. The seed was a freebie from attitude. Ordered in august. I think its kannabia actually. Its under a 400 cmh if anyone was interested.

Then you do have an exceptionally heavy feeder...I would stake the fucker now for support later! There are 6-week strains...and even nutes can speed up finishing time (PK13/14 cuts a week off of my headband), but the best way to tell is always the trichs.

Sorry for doubting you, that's just some insane bud growth at 17 days.

Its only about 2ft tall. Its in a 1 gal black grow bag. The main stem looks thick, ill see how it holds up.

I actually made a thread the day after i put it in to 12/12. The thing showed sex right away. I pulled what i thought was a male ball but really was a calyx. The site i plucked should have been budding. Its now a bunch of red/orange hairs. Heres the link that shows the date.

At this point you should nbe using both gh flora bloom and micro, the micro will give you the nitrogen.

Yea i just started using grow big from ff,

ff recommends giving veg nutes weeks 3-4 of flower.

*emphasis added*

3 weeks of growth (21 days). Prior to flowering is what we call vegitative stage. The statement you made equates to two waterings with nutrients in a 21 day period. If you are following the instructions for FF big-bloom you would have watered 4 times, but only twice with nutes.

anyway, reading your newer response it seems that you aren't using fox farm nutes, your post was just confusing because you called your nutes by the name of the fox farm line, and then in the next sentence mentioned using FF products, so I made an (incorrect) assumption that you had the name right and were using fox farm nutes. Anyway, no one said it was a K issue, it's indicative of an N issue, and N is something you find plentiful in veg nutes, and not so plentiful in flower nutes (on average, every mix is different ). What you say you are using has 0 nitrogen, and would cause the issues you are having if you were using it as a vegetative nute.

Hope that is more clear

Just one feeding, the only feeding with grow in it since flowering started, I'm now at week six but they definitely needed em at week 3-4 like ff recommends

Oh ok. I thought you assumed i only watered twice in 21 days. In reality i watered about every 3 days and only fed veg nutes twice.

also, just to be clear im using FFOF with grow big + gh flora nutes

This strain in question is doing well. Update pic.
