As long as it is just the lower leaves, you are fine. In Flower, your buds will pull nutes out of the lower leaves as they start to fatten up. As you get closer to harvest, you will notice more of the leaves turning yellow. It is the normal process as long as you are not pushing to many Nutes at her.

If they're right at the bottom and you're positive you're feeding well and at the correct ph level then they are just not getting enough light down there which is normal indoors for most people

Mid flower flushHey guys :) Have you ever done mid-flower flushing and if yes, how did it work out? Gonna let the soil dry completely and then water nutes again. Could the pH being buffered to 7.10 (shit soil) be the reason for the yellowing leaves or does the plant need more or less of somethng6y ago

Yellowing middle and mainly bottom, been in this pot for 3.5 weeksI am seeing some yellowing going on in some middle but primarily bottom part of the plant. I am growing in organic soil with gaia green 4-4-4 at 1.5 tbsp per gallon of soil. My other plants are in same soil and not showing these symptoms. Is this a cause for concern? 1st growLeaves.

Thoughts on leaf symptoms? The other plant in tent is doing same thing,but plant in other tent getting similar feed not. see diaries for more picturesK deficiency? Hard to believe that can happen in 65-gallon pots.Are getting big though.New growth tips looked yellow,hit them with water-soluble K and the new growth edges seemed get green.Some toco-ing, humidity is kinda high. Too intense light(800 ppfd), not enough C02 maybe?1y ago
