Can someone look at these pictures and offer advice?

The plant only gets Alaskan Fish with water every other day.

Once every other week since starting to flower, it has gotten bone meal and garden lime.

Also once every few weeks, a 1/4 inch or less of new soil on top.

Tips are brown, leaves are curling under, some lower fan leaves look like a balloon with the air let out, some brown spotting on leaves.

Just finished it's 6th week of flowering.

Why are the leaves doing this now?

Temp steady, Humidity same as always been, perfect hepa filtered air.

Nothing has changed, except Sticky (the plant...lol)

This is one plant.

Any advice?
Thanks

The calyxes look like they're very swollen on the second picture.

What strain is it?

I have no idea, bag seed.

Any idea why the tips are browning and curling under...etc?

Hey, dont even worry about it guy..... during the last weeks of flowering the plant begins to naturally use up all it's nitrogen therefor the unhealthy looking fan leaves. Some strains foliage will even turn a bright yellow or even a crazy purple color basically mimicing the fall leave change. So all in all dont worry about it guy.:rasta:

Actually the plants are looking nice. I would stop feeding them soon actually and let that nitrogen get used up.

cptweedmanguy,

Given that it has been 6 weeks, and the buds are barely BARELY starting to turn, the trichs are all still clear...

Buds still growning in size...

When would you stop the Alaskan fish?

Feel free to answer this anyone else as well.

It depends if your strain is more sativa or indica dominant, or it could be mixed. Personally it looks to me like its a mix, but anyways by the look of the picture it looks more sativa dominant. Maybe stop giveing it nutes in a week or so. Then procede with another week or so(I would do 2 weeks with sativa dominant strains) of good flushing to get rid of all that nasty shit built up.

Thanks a ton,

This is my very first grow, so I have been trying to keep it organic.

This was a bag seed, so I have no idea what strain it is... I am glad you can tell, I have been wondering.

I wil start flushing it in 2 weeks, then keep my eyes on the trichs.

Thanks again

Sativa dominant with a considerably shorter flowering period it seems. An inherent trait from the Indica portion of the gene pool?

By the looks of the fan leaves that still remain, you've got alittle more time before the plant starts depleting the nitrogen from the fan leaves. A little more time as in up to a month and probably then some. You say that the calyxes are still swelling, which is an indication it's very close to the end of it's life cycle. I wouldn't worry about it, though. Everything's going as it should.

She's looking great. Looks like a job well done.
