Yellow fan leaves

Goldbudstarted grow question 5y ago

New issue starting week 5 of bloom. The lowest big fan-leaves are getting yellow and that very quickly. She got a organic Biotabs PK Booster compost tea 3 days ago. It looks to me she wants more Nitrogen. Should I add molasses? If so how much? Or is it another issue. PH is ok.

Бро, приветствую! У тебя недостаток магния. Его могли спровоцировать переизбыток аммония азота, хлора и кальция.Но магний должен покидать растение с середины цветения и поэтому тебе не стоит переживать, ты уже приближаешься к урожаю! 👌😇👍

This is normal in flower. The plant starts pulling nitrogen from its leaves to fuel bud growth. By harvest time, most of the leaves will be yellow/red/purple depending on the strain.

Calcium / PH issues? Did I take the correct steps?Am I on the right track to remedy my plant's issues? Seems like calcium deficiency to me. Soil test comes in at just under 6.5, my reservoir water going in is 7.3ph, in case its actually a lack of calcium and not the PH i've top dressed gypsum (and epsom salts).
