Yellowing leaves
Hey fam, Just ended 3 weeks of flower for this Banana Purple Punch Auto. A heap of yellow leaves basically appeared over night. I fed on the 13th with flower fert (has some N in it) and again on the 18th. This is the only plant that’s going yellow. What do you think?

Small yellow leaves
While upper leaves are growing just a little bit burned on tips, this small leaves are all yellow. Can someone advice me what to do? Should I flush it with clean water without nutes, or it doesn’t make sense? Thanks in advance :)

Heavy fast yellowing
I flushed my plant because of too high ppm reading from run off and now she seems to be going all yellow. Is this normal for this stage of the grow (all trichomes still white and small buds) or is this a definite nutrients deficiency during flowering?

Why are leaves yellow?
As shown in the photos, I find yellow leaves of Northern Lights Auto. Until yesterday she has been growing in good health, but now her leaves look drooping and some of them yellow. Also she does not drink water. Why do you think it is? (deficit of nutrients?)

Does the paleness concern you?
Plant #1 seems a bit more on the pale green/yellowing side of the spectrum. Especially compared to plant #2. I have been feeding this week on a gradually increasing schedule. Not enough characters to go into it here.

Why are my plants leaves so bright green/yellow?
Wondering if anyone knows why the plants might be looking as light green as they are? We are running a purely organic grow and have not added nutrients beyond the super soil mixture. Wondering if anyone has any tips or suggestions, thanks!

Critical Purple: Leaves slightly yellow.
Just started my first grow. I1 placed the light high in the tent and the leaves slightly turned yellow. I lowered it yesterday to 18” over the top on the plants. Just wondering if I am on the right track to solve the issue. The plants are still growing. Minimal nutrients 1ml/gal.

Leaf tip discoloration - yellow and curling
Leaf tips are showing some discoloring and slight curling upwards. Could this be nutrient burn or like a zinc deficiency? Day 43, last feed was day 29 with gaia green nutrients
