hey guys

this is my first grow and im on week 6 of veg with a clone. Ive had some problems when i transplanted, noobed it all up and not only did i mix 2 bad soils and overwatered it, it also got hit with heat and moisture stress for a whole day (was only able to fix a day after)... after that drooped for a whole week with no growth, lost a few leaves, re transplanted it properly (better soil), and now finally a week after in week 6, it seems to me like shes doing a hell of a lot better, tied down a few branches as well took less then 6 hours to twist back up, but some leaves which im pretty sure are old ones that made it thru that hellish transplant day are brighter and the edges and some tips are a brighter green/yellow... new growth looks pretty green to me here some pics please any feedback will help!!!

thanks!!

ak-47 clone
fafard premium soil in 4gal pot
24/0 75w hps for first 4 weeks then 400w hps (after transplant, into flower box)

nutes; first 4 weeks used Ionoc grow solution, then switched to advancednutrients sensi grow and got B-52. my schedule was always nutes, nutes, ph water. now with this new pot and after that week of stress, im trying to get back on schedule but kinda puzzled with this b-52... should i add it in my ph water anyways? cause it doesnt seem like it could do no harm..

a flowering plant will start to yellow as you mean once the grower reduces the amounts of nutes over the last few weeks. forcing the plant to use its stored nutes up. meaning the growe does not have to smoke the nutes lol. also ye will notice on plants that are not trimmed and pruned round the bottom of the conapy that you will get dead leafs every now and then that have died of. but any new yellowing round the top middle lower middle ect should never be ignored. so yes youre are right but can you please be more specific on what you mean as to a new grower it could be miss leading and have them ingoring potential problems on there plants.

the plant in 5 and 6 is showing slight over fert. my white widow does the same thing in veg. i have no exp with AN nutes only there cal/mag. how much in terms of ec ppm you been feeding them. ive only a few grows in soil im a coco man. but in soil i used to water then water then fed at week 4 as most soil for the first 3 to 4 weesk will have enough food

why i asked is the plant in 5 and 6 in over fert but the same plant in pics 4 and 8 look the complete oppastie like the plant needs more. nitrogen and mag. but from the info youve put this would only happen through a lock out as i sure youre feeding to much. well im certain youre are. you need a more exp grower in soil using the AN range than me. sorry if i wasted youre time. im just not 100 percent how to proceed with AN nute from here i def drop the amount youre feeding thou. wish i could have helped more

i think youre right as i added a little more for wtvr reason last feeding... going to wait for the soil to dry out 1-2 more days and just give it plain water... new growth looks good though.. and u didnt waste my time u helped this is my first grow so really anything helps as im not 100% on things even though all i do is read and read... i think i might be reading too much>>?

Give it a little water with some table sugar in it...if you have too much N that will bind some up...and if the issue isn't too much N then the sugar won't do anything. Doesn't work long..usually just long enough to help the plant use up a little bit of the leftover N...That way the plant is able to use up the overage without getting locked up...Sugar is quick carbon and it binds the N blah blah blah...it can't hurt and can only help if you have used too much N..so it either helps or there is no change. But it won't hurt the plant like a lot of other overfert fixes.

Really you just have to do what works for you. I am trying things all the time on here that people mention...some works, and some doesn't.
