| | Anything wrong with DARK green leaves? | | Is there anything wrong with having DARK green leaves?
They didn't use to be so dark, and the elderly leaves are still the light green they were.. But the new leaves are all much, much darker.
Probably just worrying but figured I would ask.
And no pic.. I noticed this about a week or two ago. Didnt bother to ask until now. |

| | Dark green is fine. Likely means plants are healthy and happy. See if you can keep them that way.

| | no that is incorrect, if leaves are to dark like your describing it is most likely a nitrogen toxicity. try to back off abit on the nitrogen on your next feeding. if you are about to flower or are in flower i wouldnt worry to much, but if you are still in veg than i would correct it.

| | I suppose I could be mistaken, but don't think so. It's my understanding that anything like nitrogen toxicity would simply burn your leaves up. I mean, how many shades of green are there?
Could simply be genetics.

| | they are supposed to be dark green. nitrogen burn starts in the leaf tips, turning them white to brown to burnt. i feed mine as much as i can until the tips of the leaves just turn white. maybe the first 1/16th of an inch. then i back off 1 click. i continue to feed nitrogen throughout the WHOLE flowering cycle. along with bloom nutes of course.

| | Fdd i do the same thing as for feeding but his description sounds like the beginning of nitrogen toxicity being that the dark green leaves are at the top of the plant.
