I wouldn't. Back in the Heisenberg grow my dinafem did that just about the whole time and turned out fine. It has to do with the light. Back the light up just a little to give them a break.

Without seeing or knowing more, Id guess the plant is growing too close to the light judging by the pics since only the top half of the leaf blades seem affected and are curling up. Is it doing it just near the top of the plants because that will tell you whats going on. If its lights, it'll be mainly the top of the plant closest to the light. If it is being exhibited on the entire bush its an environmental thing.

I've always had a 1000 watt light my old one was a magnetic ballast, during the Heisenberg grow the light was just wasting electric during the first month so I went with a 1000 watt dimmable ballast for the Skywalker grow to be more efficient I'm gonna move them to the outside edge for a while to see if that corrects the problem. Thanks guys for the input.

Running hid bulbs dimmed really screws with them. If it is the same bulb it may be damaged.

I used my old bulb when it was dimmed then once I went 100 percent I put my new bulb in. I try to keep the old ones around. I moved them further out, I have about 2 weeks left they will make it that long, I wish I would've seeded one of these I would like to run some outdoors in the spring

Hey @UniDragon how did your tea come out?

Is anyone noticing some purple in your buds? I have a little purple on the main colas. It doesn't show up well in pics but it is very clear to the naked eye. Maybe it's just the cool temps

Yes mine did also but i run like a 8-10 degree difference from lights on to lights out. I like the purples in the buds.

I have about the same temp swing as you maybe that's the cause. I like the purple too. I just started a bloody skunk from Sweet Seeds and it's only an inch tall and already has a shade of red in the leaves. That one should be a beauty.

Well, it never really "frothed" but when I tested the ph it read 5.8 so I used it on my AxT S1 which was showing some yellowing leaves. The leaves seemed to turn green and then a couple of days later they turned yellow again so I am guessing that it is really ready for flowering. Hopefully it will perk up after I install the HPS, which will be this Friday. I think that the next time that I make tea, I will put everything in a stocking and then brew the ingredients in the stocking. That seems to be the only difference between what I did and what I saw on youtube.
The Skywalker, on the other hand, is doing a lot better than I expected. It still has this mass of foliage at the very top of the plant, but I think I can see some pre-flower action going on, so the Rx Green Solutions seems to be dead on. The same applies to the Skywalker: I think that once the HPS is installed and running that all of the foliage at the top will grow like mad and then create a mass of branches. This is just theory but time will tell and I'll keep everyone posted. In fact, I'll probably post pics this Friday after the HPS is installed and running.

Thanks, I still have 1 ugly Betty hiding in a corner too. Dunno why she decided halfway thru the grow that she no longer liked the feeding schedule, or any i threw at her, but some green is starting to peek from behind the yellow. she was so far ahead of the others and now......

Harvested the hempy bucket plant today, it hadn't gotten any fatter over the last 5 days, so i figured it was time.
not sure how this will dry, might be a zip when its all done...maybe.
its nice and sticky, and smells like lemon peels with hints of skunk. think it'll be good, just wish it had filled out better.
coco and soil still have maybe a week to go, i'll post a dry weight for this plant in 4 or 5 days
