This is my 3rd grow of white widow in soil (mostly organic) and strange things are afoot. Bud formation is outstanding as usual with this strain (7 1/2 weeks flower) & the main difference is that I was adding 2 heaping tbs of bat guano (0-15-0) per 5 gal to the "everyothertime watering" in additon to my normal 1/3 dose of bloom booster (15-30-15) & the plants are acting like they want to reveg? biggest bud is over 14" tall & sick-fat but the tips of the buds are throwing out new growth. No chance of a light leak, I'm pretty sure my timer is working properly. At this point I've been giving just give ph'd water w/ molasses & hope things work out.
Thoughts?
Peace

How close are your lights to the plant? What kind of lights are you using? Could be some form of dreading, but I've never seen it like that before. Check to make sure that your lights aren't coming on during the dark cycle for an hour or so. I don't think it has to do with the nutrients.

Its not uncommon for a bit of new growth but DAMN!!

I think your 15-30-15 might be the cause. Thats a good amount of "N"

for that far into flower , there doesnt seem to be too much dying off of the big leafs but then again with the color of the picture its hard to tell, but it has to be the nitro. for plants that far into flower it should be way less. nit is gonna promote veggatative growth and keep em dark green through flowering.

Oh shit! I didn't even notice that his nutrients were 15 ratio of nitrogen! yeah dude, that's probably whats doing it. Thats more nitrogen than I even use during my entire grow! haha.

Yea, I kinda wondered about that, but then I quit with the bloom booster 3 weeks ago & they get massive amounts of water every three days. I read a very convincing thread by uncle ben & he made a good argument for not cutting the N completly out during flower.
Hopefully they will fill out during the next couple weeks.

Oh yeah, two 600 HPS about 18" from the tops. I'm pretty sure that my lighting is working properly @ 12/12 - I check on them all the time & would have noticed by now if the timer was fucked up I think.

LOL not cutting the "N" completely? Thats more nitrogen than what a good number of us use during veg.

Yeah, there is a difference between not cutting it out completely, and feeding it massive amounts of it. Cut down on the N ALOT. Cut it down until about a 3-4% ratio. You should be good then.

GreatWhiteNorth.... The bloom booster you are using, even at 1/3 dose, is providing too much nitrogen. The goal this late in the game is to have the plant stripping the N from fan leaves as it shuts down. This ensures the last hard push of flower formation, in hopes of reproduction.

Hope this helps......
