Dude I stick my dive knife all around the plant away from the main stalk over and over it will get you through til shes done.trust me I have had to many fall down after I repotted in flower.Clip those fuckin leaf tips plzzzzz.Always make sure you have a good mix and ya cant overwater.

1. Nether cut anything of your plant in flower 2. That looks like too much nitrogeon to me 3. Just let the soil dry out to a bone untill the plant starts to whilt a tad, then water.

I dont know who you are and dont fuckin care.The tips show sign of past deficiency and yellow tips dont help a fuckin thing.Go ahead and listen to this moron Easter.#3 is a joke this plant is an adult.

thanks Hydro , do you think that i will damage alot of roots by stabbing the soil like that , to be honest that what i was thinking of doing. also i was going to cut the tips off also because i dont want my plants energy to be focused on trying to repair those tips and more on bud production

id not cut or stab anything. let it die of natural causes..i suppose if its half hanging off then its not such a big deal if you give it a helping hand, but the majority are still green on most of your leafs!!. As for the tight tubs. you could transplant even this late on..HOWEVER I wouldn't unless your pots are small small. How many litres are they??. Anyways if they are 5 or more litre pots I'd just give the pots a squeeze to loosen things up. if you can get a look into the pot and the roots are still nice new and white the chances are they still have growing space. If they look to be brown and its early into flower then it could be helpful to chance pots and get some fresh roots. Again if its late on and they look a bit brown. Don't worry!!
Btw I am never going to claim to be an expert and after a long long break from growing theres alot to learn. That said I did grow in soil for years before taking a break. There was never any complaints about the ganja and since starting again the last 3 grows have gone real well. How you finding the heat?. Man its been warm in the UK. Grow 4 is 3wks into flowering aand the adopted ladies may not be so goood
sorry about the essay mate. This haze\exile joint was nice
Hope the rest of your grow works out. Dont do too much btw they look nice
ps How far into flowering are you?. If there aint long left everything looks normal. if your only a few weeks in then maybe a tiny drop of grow nutes will help that yellowing.

Thanks man its late enough into flowering , Pistils will start to turn orange in the next few days im thinknig there is still 3 week left , there in 7 liter pots , ya the weather here in Ireland is much the same heat heat heat , altough its cooler today id imagine its on the way over to ye also the cooler weather. Ill post a pic of them together to show that it is just this one plant with the curling / yellowing but it is the plant with the most compacted soil or tight tub as u like to call itid not cut or stab anything. let it die of natural causes..i suppose if its half hanging off then its not such a big deal if you give it a helping hand, but the majority are still green on most of your leafs!!.

I had a very similar problem with lowryder and I believed it was caused by excessive heat, so I lifted the light a bit, added another fan and seemed to work. you said the soil dried overnight, which makes me think there's too much heat in there too. You should also make sure you mix perlite with the soil to avoid it getting too hard and compact.

Thats why I mentioned a good mix cant be overwatered.I have actually been growing over 25 yrs skunk boy.I have never injured my plants by aerating the soil with a blade.My knife is in nowhere near the shape it used to be.Good luck.Sorry I got pissed.These fucking helicopters flying over are giving everyone I know a fucking heart attack.Its probobly all about the troop transporting to the border.1200 guys.Had the DEA here one day over 1 plant that was a ways from my property and my crop was over.A helo and carloads of dudes over 1 plant they couldnt even pin on me.Fucking govt.Peace out yall.
