I would add some calmag plus . The plus is usually nitrogen and iron.
Yellow new growth is usually a pH issue or a lack of iron or nitrogen. Iron I would suspect !

Its common and generally ignorable as it could be genetic
like purple stems its not always nuets, keep an eye on the rest of the plant and make sure light isnt too close

The newest growth will always be slightly lighter in colour. Although I see some yellowing spots on some fan leaves, this is indicating calcium defeciency. 🌱👍

Just looks like you need a bit of calmag to me just my opinion.. could be wrong. Wouldn't panic about the feeding unless your tips go brown then you'll wanna flush her out. Don't stress yourself out at every little colour change you'll have no hair left at the end haha.
Hope this helps, happy growing keep well.

Leaves turning light green -- yellow (after 12h day/night rhythm)Since I started with 12h daylight/dark rhythm a lot of leaves started to turn yellow (older and lower ones first, some branches turned red). What I did:
PH value=6.5. I added CalMag--no effect. I flushed the soil --no effect. Do you have any ideas? Thx green thumb-friends 👏Week 19

Why my plant is in shock i fixed the ph of watering .I suspect of this reasons:Heat wave/changing phase to flowering / nutrient locked/ over watering/. InI lowered the ph of watering from 6.8 to 6.0 but this plant is still is shock and wont grow like others.
Could it be a sign of changing phase from veg to bloom ? 3 weeks ago my first plant went to flowering and did the same color fading. Now that plant has good colorWeek 18

Burning Edges/Yellowing and Drooping?The yellowing has gotten worse and I'm noticing slightly burnt tips/edges and some droop. Could this be burn/deficiency or over/underwatering? A combination? Is there anything I can do to fix this early or is it just a matter of giving them some time and less nutrients? Thanks!5 months ago

What to do? → BF Runtz Auto - Day 42 - RH70, 80F in BioBizz Light SoilOn my last post, I was advised I have N tox, so I watered w/o BioGrow, just BioBloom and it's gotten much worse. The runoff EC was 1.5 (watered with 0.8, runoff pH was okay), so I’m guessing it's salt buildup. I plan to flush when this watering dries out—any thoughts?Buds. Not fattening
