well yteah thats the strain and each pot is slightly different anyways but thats a prime example of the simple differences between strains and growing characteristics lol but no dont chop it man.unless you wanna but it aint that bad dude lol! but it could be since you just fed them more.just but aware of that but you can try taking the rings out and putting something in its place assuming your not taking out roots er anything lol but if you can do that or not id use a rinse with a good surfactant and fluff the soil well prior to watering and again after drying it out as much as possible with a lil bit of increased air flow and try using a rice wash water. about a half cup per half gallon of water with a surfactant and that'll help mellow them out slightly..hopefully before you get any(if indeed that you do,,>it aint 100%) hot spots bleeding down into the roots causing a caustic issue which also is fightable to a point. stick half cup of rice in a strainer and steep it swirling it about for a few minutes minimum and then take the rice and mix it into your current batch and take the water adding the surfactant and rinse after igging out the feeding you added.or most of it dont get too hardcore about it.
