Possible supercrop mistake?

You're totally fine - that's just how they heal.

 

She will heal with a nice big knuckle no problem looks fine...

 

Just the plant healing from the stress of what you did. I hope you have a TON of lighting to flower with for all those plants. You know that yield is directly proportional to lighting during flower and if you try to run too many plants with not enough light, you're just shooting yourself in the foot yield wise. Nutes don't grow plants...they feed them. Light grows the plant or forces the plant to grow..I should say. Each and every plant you grow needs the same high wattage/correct spectrum light and it needs to be as close to the plant as possible to get the most out of it (without risking light burn). If you flower a bunch of plants and only have one lamp to do it with, you'll have to hang the light higher just to cover all the plants which will rob them all of the strength they need to force them to produce their best. You're better off flowering a single plant if you only have enough light to handle a single plant, than you are attempting to flower 6 with it and having it too far away. Not having enough lighting means your plants are going to spend their time stretching to try and reach the light instead of filling out buds. You also will get much less penetration beyond the canopy of the plant to develop out anything other than the tops. Not trying to scare you here, but most people think that you decide how may plants you flower according to the available space. Instead, the flower lighting you have available should be the determining factor as to how many plants you should flower at once. We use 1000 watt HPS lamps for flowering and run 2 plants per lamp on a 10 week cycle, and average around 5 oz per plant after cure. Our rooms are around 10' x 14' and we have 4 lamps per room, so 8 plants fills it up. This gives each plant excellent light penetration so every bud on the plant will plump up and be dense instead of everything below the tops being underdeveloped. Look...please don't take the info about what we have and do as any sort of a brag. I, by no means, consider myself to be any kind of growing "guru" and I know that what we're getting is not setting any records either. I had the same mindset as most everybody else when I started out and was trying to run too many plants with way too few lights. My harvest weight reflected it heavily too. LOL So running less plants and really going overkill on the lighting increased our yield HUGE. I never had anybody to ask questions and get answers from so I kinda had to stumble around and figure it out for myself. Just trying to help and hope some of this info has. TWW

 

Well said widow! Telling someone "you have to much light for so few plants" is one thing one never has to say when someone asks whats wrong with my plants... think of supercropping like breaking your arm, kind of sets you back when it first happens but after a week you adapt, start healing and forge ahead..

 

If you saw a picture of my 4 x 8 veg tent you'd have a heart attack with all the plants. It looks like a jungle - but I flower in an 11 x 12 separate room. A picture of someone's plants doesn't mean that's also how they were going to flower them. Maybe they would start 5 and narrow down to 2 - maybe some will be males...
