Приветствую, друг! 👋 не нужно ничего обрывать! желтая листва - нужная листва растению! Где мало света, листва желтеет, усыхает и опадает. Это нормально для растения в его взрослом возрасте! Не обрывайте листву, растение рассчитывает на её наличие! Когда растению она уже будет не нужна, девочка сама отпустит лист. Ваша задача только в том, чтоб поднять её с поверхности субстрата и выбросить! 👌 Удачи бро! ✊😇

Thank you for your answers. I will leave them since they are hanging or limp. I'm really trying to avoid defoliating if possible. I did take a few tertiary shoots that were so small and under canopy that I could tell would amount to nothing.

I've added some nutes and the plant started praying the next day. Added some bloom guano tea for feeding and watering. Larger fan leaves still look yellow and I think still yellowing but much slower than before. Definitely will devote 6 gallons each next time to delay yellowing start feeding the tea immediately.

I give them a slight tug.. If it pulls right off then it was time for it to go.. if it feels like it would take a snip or actual force to take the leaf off I'll leave it.. 👊

the leaf yellow I have a problem with yellowing leaves. Yellowing appears immediately after germination. And it continues until harvest. I thought it was the fertilizers. Fertilizers that are old. I threw away the old fertilizers and bought new ones. But the problem still persists.

I have the light at a height of about 40 cm. The photo is taken immediately after watering. The water drains as it should. I use biobiz lite mix. I think it will be poor water quality or spoiled fertilizer. How do you recognize spoiled fertilizer?

Many of my plant's fan leaves, especially lower down in the plant are turning yellow. Is this normal? I think I'm on my last couple of weeks for flowering, so I'm not sure if it's just part of the process towards the end. Should I remove them, or just leave them there?
