Whats your soil ph? Could be low ph locking out nutrients.
MRHERBanswered grow question 5y ago
Soil ph is buffered against decrease in ph but im going to say that i honestly don't know as my soil ph meter broke and gave them water at a ph of 6 with some epsom salt

YellowingHi! It looks like my grandaddy purple is starting to yellow, in my last week of veg (7). Could it be caused by too small of a pot (3gallons), this is my 4th grow, first time growing only one plant using scrog. Maybe an upgraded pot before I flower? Thanks!Leaves. Color - Yellow

Rate the Bud - 6 Week completed floweringSo this is my first time growing with using BioThrive grow, bloom, calmag bottle ferts. Would greatly appreciate any feedback on improvements, those 2-3 leaves with yellow spots seem concerning.
On 'honest' scale of 1 to 10, how are my buds looking for week 6 in flowering?Buds. Not fattening

Why is one leaf yellow AND shiny?Plant has one leaf that is yellow on one side, and shiny/dark and curling up on the other side? From what I've read those are 2 opposing issues (light burn or nitrogen deficiency/or toxicity) the others are pretty much uniform, Could this be from getting water droplets on leaves?Week 3

Should I cut the dried leaves at the bottom?Should I remove the dried leaf in the bottom? I was thinking that it might redirect unnecessary energy to the plant since the leaf might be too far gone to save. I was thinking of starting topping next week as well, when the fifth node start to show more.5y ago

I have been doing a lot of research and I’m in a process of elimination at the moment but the plants growth hasn’t been affected. I will continue to try treat the problem.Week 5

Spots and yellowing on the leavesGood evening I have an autoflowering at the eighth week and recently yellowing has begun to appear on the leaves that I don't understand if it is the leaves that go towards the natural end or a problem of burning of fertilizer or even a fungal infection.Leaves.

To harvest or not to harvestAny opinions on whether I should harvest based on the pics I posted. A lot of people will say, NOT YET, wait until all the hairs are orange, then you read on some sites that say 100% orange is too late. I prefer the 'up' high vs couch lock. Trichomes are clear/milky with a few am4y ago

I'm not sure if it will help or stunt the growth even more(I don't know if that possible at this point but still). Do they even have a function after they got damaged the way they have?
