Flowers have certainly fattened a bit, but i'm hoping for even more this next week. I did use a higher concentration of bloom nutrients and things seem to be looking ok. The deficiency didn't get much worse. I noticed that the humidity has risen so I've ordered a dehumidifier on next day delivery because it's too late to fuck up this grow 😁

Those buds are looking real good. It's part of the natural ripening process for the plant to draw nutrients from the bottom fan leaves thus causing them to yellow and fall off, I try to avoid Nitrogen during mid flowering onwards just based on previous experiences. Look forward to the next few updates - it will be an awesome harvest 👌

@HazeyBobby, great. Thanks for that answer. I think I should bring my nutrient schedule forward by a week or 2 for the next grow in this case. I am using the BioBizz nutrient chart which assumes an 8 week flowering period, so I may be a week behind where I should have transitioned to heavier doses of bloom fertiliser. Cheers!

@eggman, it’s common for plants to exhibit a nitrogen deficiency during the mid- to late-flowering period - pretty much where you may be in a week. This can cause plants to lose leaves and reduce yield as the nitrogen exits the old growth for new growth. Best way I have found is to gradually switch over to bloom fertilizers to ensure that you don’t run into a nitrogen deficiency during flowering. This essentially allows the plants to store enough nitrogen until the end of the flowering period. I'm not sure adding Nitrogen after deficiency symptoms in flowering aids. I maintain a high dose of N until pistils show (which is typically 2-3 weeks after switching the light regime).

@HazeyBobby, Thanks a lot for the advice! Is the leaf colour expected as early as week 5 of flower would you say?
