I am noticing some yellowing starting on the new growth. Did not see any real big growth this week. I think I have had my light a little to close and move it up which will hopefully also help with coverage.

I am noticing some yellowing has started on the new growth. Also they have been hardly growing over the last week. I did move the light up just a few days ago. Possible ph issues?

That lime green color on the new growth? That's normal, actually that is the color all the foliage should have; it's the dark green leaves that are not healthy, it shows too much nitrogen. Go easier on the Grow Big

Not much has changed this week. Read some other journals were people had use the same light as I am using and adjusted to the same height they have been using. Still working on finding the best height for this light. Also cut way back on the nutrients this week as well.

Things seem to be going well this week. Best news is I finally got my @marshydro tent and I have to say I am loving it! Defiantly will make things a lot easier in the future. I think keeping the light around 13-15 inch seems to be helping so for now I will just try and keep it in that range. I also decided to only feed water and cal-mag this week.

Lots of smells this week! Everyone grew a good bit and put on some good bulk. My weakest plant has become one of the best looking. Cut back on some of the nutrients but tried to give them a full feeding this week and see how they do.

I have noticed one girl has some spotted leaves but I am feeding cal mag so I’m not sure it’s a calcium deficiency.

From the looks if it your plant is taking on nutrients possibly too much. When I grow in soil I hardly give them nutes. Some of your big fan leaves have signs of nitrogen toxicity due to the clawing and folding of them. I'd say water from here in out.

Rough week for everyone. AC went out so everyone has been a little heat stressed. Luckily things have started to cool down in the area so hopefully all the girls will recover. I have noticed one plant had gotten just a little purple in its leaves!

No food this week as I saw some major nutrient burn going on. Also finally got my mars hydro TS3000 so going to put that to some good work! Probably going to harvest the auto in the bunch next week or maybe the week after.

I have noticed one of the girls fan leaves have all started turning yellow and drooping. It looks like they are turning from tip to stem and some of the smaller leaves have also started to turn. Is this due to age or a deficiency of some kind?

judging week 5-7 progression and what you feed, i'd lean lockout. Some claw in leaves, but late in flower, so it is tough to figure out what the cause is with multiple options. Looks tohave a bitof a claw going on, so more likely high on nutes than low. But, looks like K or Mg deficiency symptoms? Rule out K-deficiency by checking guaranteed labels and calculate ppm you give. if it is okay, and you regularly give cal-mg, it's very unlikely either of these since 'enough' is provided... you may have too much Ca if you mix with hard water... these are all guesses and you need to cross-reference your recent behaviour and facts you have access to that i do not... don't blindly listen to me or anyone else on this stuff unless they have all the necessary info, which is impossible most times. As long as it doesn't permeate the canopy, should be fine. as long as it doesn't progress too quickly, should be fine. another thing to ensure is proper before doing anything is your pH. Based on diary, you should be fine there.
