Leaves of newest growth are giving me the "claw"

I pretty much feed the plants all the same nutes during watering. no plant gets a different feed. Using Gen Hydro Trio. with Cal-Mag b/c i use RO water. At first i thought it was too much light and too hot.. but it doesn't get past 86F at the canopy. usually the RH is about 30-50 in the tent. Its about 2 weeks into flwring. Maybe the plant is just being picky.

Too high on your ferts or too much water. Sativas don't like a lot fertilizer and indicas don't like a lot of water . A little bit more info on what your growing and how your growing it would be helpful

too much nitrogen they do need some but very limited give the bloom food only to the clawer starve it if nitrogen then give less nitrogen I'm guessing your giving the bloom and micro? Dilute the micro more or leave it out for a feed on the clawer

lots of bad advice here straight off. no one even said that the temps are going up to 86f and a rh of 30 to 50. that's enough to fry most plants.

Sorry, but I disagree with all of that. 86 degrees is quite normal in most areas where cannabis thrives in the wild and even much much higher. As for humidity of 30-50 that is pretty much perfect for flowering. I grow in a closet and during summer my temps are frequently in the mid 80's with no ill effects, but I also have lots of air movement.
Usually the only ill effects seen when flowering under higher temps are airy buds and loss of some terpenes from flashing off.
Now with that being said it would be better if the temps were in the mid 70's


I agree that most likely the problem is related to over-fert and or too much water.

86 degrees indoors is different than 86 degrees outdoors in nature.
Running like that indoors I would hope you're running Co2 with plenty of air movement.

Not sounding on other folks results,if you can get away with it God bless ya

indeed, maybe you should have read what I said properly. I grow in high temps with high humidity.. but 86f and 30-50 tat will fry most plants.
as for 30-50rh perfect for growing, hahahhahaahha you actually have no clue, but you grow in a closet so obviously you know better than me.

how can you say hes overfeeding when he never told anyone how much he feeds??

Because clawing is a classic sign of overfertilization.

86 is marginal, fine with air movement. Not optimal, but doable IME.

Not really enough info to KNOW.

I won't slag on people trying to help, but people that enter just to be ****s... :tiphat:

Good luck OP. :shooty:

Damn, don't get so butt hurt over someone having a different experience and opinion!
Maybe you should re-read what i said......."30-50% is pretty much perfect for flowering"! It's hard to say what your argument with the humidity is.........if you think it needs to be higher then that would be conducive to botrytis. Many people grow in the desert where humidity at 20% would be quite high (check out Uncle Fishstick's thread).
As to the nutes issue, you're right he didn't say. However, the clawing is typical of either over-watering or over fertilizing. Not always but more often than not.

People have different experiences than you and if things work for them that don't work for you that's just fine. Don't make yourself out to be better just because you don't grow in a closet.
Smoke another bowl and chill the f**k out!

Quit being a dick.

I shoot for 85f and 40% humidity.

But I get great weed so obviously you know better than me.

I love it when a grow is doable.

no im not butt hurt at all.. this is the internet.

no youre completely wrong. the plant has parameters which are optimum or not.. its not like the plant or person can chose. optimum rh to temp is already known for plants/cannabis. that's how commercial greenhouses etc and big commercial cannabis grows can get the perfect environment dialled in. and trust me, 30% to 50% is no ideal for flowering unless your temps are at like 67f lol.

but anyway.. seems like newbs who grow in cabinets hang around in the infirmary giving bad advice to other newbs.
good luck!!
