Yellowing leaves.
TheMadHasherstarted grow question 4 years ago
Yooo! I have a few lower leaves starting to yellow I’m pretty sure its because the plant has switched all the energy to bud production so my question is, is it ok to defoliate the yellowing leaves at this point?

Yes. Fade is natural. Take em off as they yellow. I was hella worried too... When it came time to trim there was still SO many leaves.
this late in the grow its mostly bud production and even alot of yellow leaves are pretty fine. At least thats what I've learned.🙌

I would recommend looking into defoliation for cannabis plants online. Some do it, some dont and both have their advantages/disadvantages, in my opinion. Personally I defoliate quite heavily as I believe they dont help the plant much after they begin to droop and yellow. The plant will drain the nutrients from the leaf but with plenty of nutrients readily avaible to my plants, I prefer to remove them to give the plants room to breath. It will also encourage more top growth which I believe pushes the plant to develop a larger footprint.
This is a highly controversial topic so i recomend thorough research.
Happy growing

Hi friend,For me, I will only take off if the leaf becomes completely yellow or wait until they fall off by themselves.Like u said let the plant use the energy.Happy growing... ✌️

Natural or Problem?Is this natural yellowing or is there a problem? pH to 6.3 and runoff is 5.7. The stem is awfully purple, watering/feeding is where I struggle. 1st pic - 4/21 and 2nd pic - today(4/24). Seems to have escalated over the last few days. Do-si-do auto about 10 weeks.

The clone has bad leaves. Need helpTell me, friends, what's wrong with my clone, I still can't figure out what's missing or too much. When I gave him just water PSH 6, ppm 10-15, he turned yellow. When I added water with a minimum amount of fertilizer for 1 week for vegetation, it also turned yellow.

Yellow leaf tipsHello,
I think I have a slight over-fertilisation.
Could someone have a look at this. And could someone explain to me in this context whether and how bad it is that the water does not flow through when watering. I have never had water under the pot.

Surplus or deficiency?Can't tell if there's a surplus of nutrients or a shortage of potassium? One plant looks like nitrogen burn and the other two look like theyre maybe a little k deficient. Was thinking of chilling out on the feed on the burnt one and just feeding micro to the other two. Thoughts?

Leaves Turning Yellow - RQS Watermelon AutoHi GrowCommunity! I am currently growing a RQS Watermelon Auto. The plant is in week six and started flowering two weeks back. I did some LST which the plant handled quite well. I am seeing leaves turning yellow starting from the inside. Is it missing nitrogen? Thx in advance..
