Are you giving any nutrients yet? Coco coir doesn't contain nutrients so you need to start sooner than if you were growing in soil.

Yellow leaves with brown patches between veins.
Any ideas on what this could be? I checked the PH and it is right around 6.5. I did feed them twice last week as I was out of town over the weekend. When I got back the temp in the tent was °91. It's bad on one plant and starting on another. The rest look healthy.

Fan leaf deficiencies during flower. To cut or not to cut?
Day 85 Update: G13 has a ton of fan leaves turning fast. Pretty sure it's a PH issue. Should I wait until they're dead to trim them off or get rid of every fan leaf that is affected more than 50 percent of the leaf?

Having some discoloration on the fan leafs. From a quick Google it seems to be related to nitrogen deficiency. Would adding some coffee grounds or other organic matter quickly reverse this?

Leaves are turning yellow from the bottom up and I'm not sure if it's the natural death of unessery lower leaves or a nitrogen deficiency. It's not a ph problem. Thoughts?

Light burn?
I noticed the tips of the top leaves are becoming paler, even slightly yellow. Could this be light stress/burn? My LEDs were approx. 30 cm from the canopy, now moved them up 15 cm.

Going coco with coco coir!
How often should coco be watered? Some people say every day some people say wait till coco dries up a bit, then water? Been watering every 3-4 days and ive had all kinds of deficiencies. Not sure if it’s from the amount of nutes I use or I just don’t water often ? going coconuts

Fine-Tuning Nitrogen Understanding (Deficiency or Toxicity) -- Suspected deficiency, so how do I adjust Fox Farm nutes? Increase ALL 3 nutes to 3/4 dose?
Initial inter-vein yellowing, followed by whole leaf yellowing. Minor leaf stem reddening. Older growth. Normal for flower stage (I believe), but too early for normal and rapid discoloration (week 6). This makes me believe it's a nitrogen deficiency, amplified by SLIGHT overwater

Day 38 autos: is this nitrogen deficiency or something cal mag could help with?
Kia ora whanau, Each of my three flowering autos (the Herbies Beginner Auto Mix #1: Ape Fruit Auto, Purple Chill Auto and Godzilla Cookies Auto) has an issue with yellowing older leaves. Do I need more nitrogen or is this potentially something cal mag would address? TYVMIA!
