DNA-SUPER LEMON SKUNK question

[chomsky]

OK As title says Im currently vegging DNA Super Lemon Skunks in soil. They are a month into veg and look excellent. They are exactly 30" tall.

TWO QUESTIONS

1. The very tips of the leaves at the top are yellow and a few are turning down a bit, not much. I mean the very tips only are yellowing. My run off is ph at 6.5 and Im feeding Techniflora with a water water feed schedule. IS this ok or a potential problem starting.

2. Does anyone know how much this strain stretches in flower. I only have 6 feet MAX to let these go to (7 ft. ceiling). Should I flip now? One month in veg doesn't seem long enough????

PS Sorry no pics, my description of the yellowing is spot on.

hey there chomsky. usually leaf tip yellowing is due to slight overfeeding. next time you water use straight ph'd water and let some come out the bottom to flush the soil. most strains will at least double during the stretch phase of flowering. either bend and tie the tops down or read up on supercropping. naturally pinching the tops will he;lp to keep it more on the bushy side. good mluck, throw up some pics if you can

Thanks Jammie yes I am super cropping should I also super crop in flower?

some say that it stresses plants to superrcrop in flower, but i've never had a problem. because i grow mostly feminized hybrid, i always use dutchmaster's reverse (i've heard florel is cheaper and works as well) and i've never had so much as a late season nanner.

ps- the key to successful supercropping is to tie or tape the bend branch down otherwise it will be almost upright again in a couple of days.

I know if you want to control direction of growth you must tie down. However, I thought the mail point of super cropping was to in essence injure the plant so that it heals itself stronger at the pint of injury which creates a more efficient flow of nutrients and water and also stronger point in the branch to support the heavier flowers. Also, Slows vertical growth...

Is tying down part of the super cropping technique, per se????
