Thx for reply.
I just think it's odd the rest of the leafs are smaller and lighter.
This leaf is almost touching the ground ...
Here's a pic of other leafs.

too much nitrogen.
Here's a really good link on how to fix it.

good luck.

Very common in young plants especially with new growers who want to give their plants everything possible....which is sometimes too much.
Your newer growth is lighter which indicates that it is more healthy so you may not need to do anything at all except watch and see. Flushing would be the answer if you continue to have problems. ;)
My very first grow I used WAY too much nitrogen and my plants turned a lovely dark blue green (almost black) Well I thought that was wonderful so I kept giving them more and more.......guess what happened. :wtf:
Good luck. :)

I only gave it rootcomplex, supervit and rainwater.
I thought fosfor and kalium where for the floweringstage.
The weather is bad though, lot's of rain.

Yep, both have a lot of nitrogen. Sounds like you overdid it. I would just water normally for awhile.....it appears from the new growth the nitrogen spike is done with.

Also....get some more reading under your belt. I don't know what kalium is....are we talking about potassium? And phosphorus? The plant needs all of these in small amounts during its entire life cycle. As you can see it's not quite as simple to grow this "weed" as everyone thinks. :)
Read, read, read. Both you and your plants will be glad you did. ;)

Dude.....start your own thread in the plant problems section and list all your specs.....I don't know how you guys got going in the photo section. Make sure to put the photos in your new thread too.;)

Hey Weedhound,
I am giving it water from a barrel filled with 30L rainwater. This water is circulated. I added 7 drops of supervit and 1 cup rootcomplex. The amounts were pointed out by Hensi.
If I gave it mineral water, would it differ from rain water?
Anyway, thanks for sharing.

Gotta realize that what seems like a small amount to you is alot to the plant. Basically you gave it pretty much the same thing.....twice. No biggie and you noticed it which is good....that's how we all do it. ;)
Do you just have the one plant? Have you sexed it? You sure don't want to do all this work and end up with a male. :( What a bummer that would be.
Other than the nitrogen spike your plant looks good. I use RO water for my plants (hydro) so cannot help you with the soil and miineral water question but I'm sure someone else will know. You might put up a new thread with that question in basic growing.
good Luck. :)

Goodmorning there,
Yeah just this 1. I got it for free. And it's a girl, because he told me it's a cutting from a motherplant.

Hey there,
I have a pH meter (quite expensive) and checked my water. Way above level. It's rare how a plant needs so much care. I cleaned and refilled the barrel with tapwater. Soon it hits roomtempature I pH balance it.
I actualy enjoy taking care of her. Let's see where it ends

Looks absolutley amazing man! it seems to be getting lots of sun so just make sure your watering is regular and not completly soaking the roots...you want that plant to soak all the water up not just have it drain out or flood it. water with a regular amount and time for a few weeks and you should notice that the tips will even out and disapear
