Nitrogen Toxicity I think. Help!

What's up fam! I believe my plant has nitrogen toxicity can ya confirm? Its the middle of the 6th week and no bud/trich production since week 4ish. Everything just slowed and maybe even stopped growing. I did a small flush with FF sledge hammer so far. What should I do? I know not to feed anymore nitrogen. I was following FF schedule and went half dose. Is there still life in this plant or is it done? Would it still continue to grow after the nitrogen has "leveled out" ?

Also I have another plant (last picture)with this strange curl on one of the leaves. Any idea? Trying to knock out 2 birds with one stone.. Thanks RIU!

I would just water her only for a bit and she will be fine. Last pic looks like broad mite damage. You will need a microscope to see them. Google "broad mite damage on cannabis" to see what I am talking about.

So you think it'll start growing again? Normal feeding without nitrogen? I'll check out those mite pics thanks!

what are your grow conditions : temps? soil? lights? Why do you thing its N toxicity?
I think its nitrogen toxicity because I compared it to pictures and read about it. See how the smaller bud leaves are curling a bit and the leaves are super dark and even looks glossy. Grow tent, +-83 degrees, 1000 watt HPS dimmed to 750 air cool hood. Plants are about 15 inches from light.. Soil and good air circulation.

but you didnt say you gave it any N....have you given ti any N? 85 is on the hot side, will cause heat stress (which is what I thought of originally)

how many days into flower are u well weeks ?
This is the middle of 6 weeks. I scrogged this plant b4 and it took the nutes perfectly. This current one i mainlined this time around and its acting weird and not producing buds like it should.

I vote for Nitrogen toxicity. Leaves seem very dark in relation to stem and bud color. +1 on mites as well, though this far into flowering I wouldn't use any insecticides. I would run clean ph'd water for 2-3 days and see how she reacts.

Yes I have, I was following FF schedule and N is in there until mid flowering and it tapers off. The way I grew the plant this time around is through mainlining.. I read somewhere that I would need to use less nutes for this method..but I still might of went too much? I grew it in this temp last time without any issues with heat stress.

The leaf with the suspected mites is only a week and half into flowering.. You think neem oil would work for those mites if I have them? I might try spraying it with green cure. It actually killed some root aphids I had before.

i jsut use normal fly spray but neem could work i just spray the ground with flyspray and let it mist up with lights off ofc and a oderless one aswell

Mainline shouldnt require less nutes. I use FF soil and nute/soluable line and follow the schedule to the T. I have no problems. You have NO signs of N toxicity. Your leaves arnt clawing they are drooping from heat stress. Not all strains act alike, some hate wind or high temps, some can handle it. One mozaic leaf doesnt signify broad mites....
