Those lower leaves start to die off as the plant ages. They’ve done they’re job and can be removed once they start to yellow.

Noticing my very bottom leaves are turning yellow. Should I be concerned with this? Any idea of the cause? I haven’t used any nutrients yet.

Leaves turning slightly yellow
Hi guys, I have a problem that I need some advice with. I have some slight yellowing of the leaves, it’s not happening at the top of the plant. I have tried flushing the plant, and haven’t added any fertilizer since the yellowing. My light is 12” from the plant.

Browning leaves? Did a soil slurry and dropped the water from 6.8 to 6.2. Does that mean it’s locking out? How should I go about fixing this? In peat pearlite and worm castings. Added about 6 cups of lime to the 20 gallons of soil thought that should have helped the ph?

The leaves are wierd shaped, but growing fast
Hi everyone! Please tell me, is it a consequence of leaf scorch with light, or incorrect watering, or I was very in vain in the beginning added root booster? The big question is, is it worth waiting for a potential recovery?There's nothing like it at google

Rapid, uniform, wide-spread leaf yellowing - flowering week 5
Entering week 5 of flowering on this photoperiod and she's experiencing wide-spread yellowing in leaves over past week. Haven't been monitoring pH or PPM, but am assuming this is nitrogen deficiency due to nutrient lockout. Can anyone confirm or recommend treatment beyond flush

Leaf issue in Wk 6
Hi I am having a leaf issue late in week 6. It’s been coming on a while. I’m wondering if the ph is out or too high ppm. 7 gal pots in a Scrog, it’s hard to test runoff. I’m starting to flush now so does it matter as much as long as ph is good? More wondering for next run. Thanks

Leaves are turning yellow from the bottom up and I'm not sure if it's the natural death of unessery lower leaves or a nitrogen deficiency. It's not a ph problem. Thoughts?
