Mottled yellow leaves?
Psyclopsanswered grow question 6y ago
perfectly normal. it has to do with the amount of light reaching the bottom of the plants. most growers prune the sucker branches and fan leaves at days 21 and day 42 of flower to allow light to penetrate through out the plant.

Hi growdiaries,
Got a couple of issues on my plants here. The last 4 pictures show the problems, firstly there are holes appearing in the leaves and it looks like something is eating them. Haven't seen anything alive. Also a few spots appearing. Mould? Had bad air for a bit.Week 5

So at day 55 I'm noticing that some of my leaf tips are looking a bit burnt and some rust colored spots are showing up on the leaves. I read that this might a deficiency of cal or mag or a ph issue. Just wondering if any one could help my diagnose this issue and try to fix it.Week 8

Hiyo. Plz notice the 10/30 pics. Should be about 4 more weeks to harvest. I know she is going to start going off as we get closer but this is a couple weeks early for my liking. Any ideas? I water/feed with the basic fox farm trio. With 4 weeks left is it an issue? Thx.Week 10

Why do my plants only have that light greenish yellowish look at the top and why is one of my plants also having those sick leaves at the bottom?2 of my 3 plants are a bit yellow-ish at the top since about a week. Plant 1 also had a couple of sick leaves at the bottom that I did remove. Those leaves had brown/dark spots, felt dry like paper, had very purple stems and did smell more like hay. More info in my report.2y ago

Yellow Leaves AutoflowerNovice grower, Outdoor. Started in a 70/30 coco-coir to perlite mix. Forgot Worm Castings until 22nd June, implemented with top dressing of Gaia Green Power Bloom and All Purpose. Overwatered at stem for a week or so. I suspect it's either an N, P ,or K deficiency (nuteburn?)Leaves. Color - Yellow
