My guess is nitrogen deficiency supposedly you should feed veg nutes 1 or 2 weeks into flowering just a little and week it off kinda

This can happen in flower. If the new growth is all looking good. And it doesn't seem to spread rapidly I wouldn't worry! Happy Harvesting!

Week 2: One of the plants still doesn't look good + other beginner questions :)Second week and one of the plants has weird spots + leaves curled. Not sure what to do. Do I overwater? Is it some kind of disease or deficiency? No idea. Also, when should I start feeding the plants? And how much water do I need at this point? 😥

Can anyone tell me what's going on in week 2? I transplanted and each plant seems to be yellowing on the lower leaves. Not very happy. Was dry when I took it out of the dixie cup and watered with 1/4 strength veg nutes and a root stimulator. It seems to be curling in as well.

Droopy leaves, weird spots.Does anyone know what's wrong with that bottom left plant? Those spots appeared pretty soon after I cleaned those filters. I'm thinking that it's a stress caused by that cleanse, no chemicals or such were used, but some roots were torn in the process. Deficiency? Disease?

Yellowing of leaves during flower What is causing yellowing of the bottom/backside fan leaves during week 5 of flower? Should I worry about it spreading? Increased bloom nutrients to 3ml/l recently but could have started when feeding 2ml/l. Or is this just leaves yellowing as a part of flowering?
