I can't really see it in the pictures very well. Let me ask you a couple of thing: is the yellowing homogeneous (is the whole leave yellow)? Or is the yellowing more pronounced near the tip and the base still green colored? The former is nitrogen deficiency, the later is potassium deficiency. Do you notice rust colored (like burned) tips and edged in leaves? That's a more pronounced stage of potassium deficiency. At this stage it would be strange to have a nitrogen deficiency, since it's so late into flowering. My bet is potassium

It looks like potassium (K) deficiency. Nitrogen deficiency isn't likely this late into bloom.

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? Th Is this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks

Should I be worried with yellow and brown tipped leaves? Will it affect quality or yield? Can I correct this? With my nutes I used sturdy stalk and Ph’d water 6.3 and I feel it could be the lights but it also started from over feeding Nutes. B4RNS called it!

Yellow sugar leaves I am waiting for a low-THC strain to develop amber trichomes and I found two buds with these yellow sugar leaves. There is no bud rot, should I wait longer to harvest? Also, do CBD strains develop amber trichomes, or should I harvest now? Additional details available in growdiary

She has yellowing and dying leaves issue for a while now. I was giving more nutes lately to combat the issue. Now burnt tips say it is to many nutes. So I decided yesterday that I should water with a bit of calmag before next feeding at beggining of the week.

Yellow Spots on Lower Leaves in Week 5 of Flowering – Nitrogen Deficiency?Hey friends, I have a problem with yellow spots on the lower leaves. People are saying it's nitrogen deficiency. It's currently week 5 of flowering, and I'm wondering if this is within normal limits and if I should just leave it as it is. Any advice on what to do?
