First set of true leaves turning yellow

Mevonstarted grow question 4 years ago

As the title says, the first set of true leaves turning yellow. What could be the possible cause? I'm sure this is not overwatering, as I'm keeping it on the dry side, so it's possible that's not enough water? Or something to do with nutrients?

Yeah, it needs feed, and I'd reckon a bit of extra water too (if you're sure it's not overwatering). Also, how much light does it get?

6 weeks is when usually startsoils are depleted so that could be just about time. Its ot a problem since she will have made a lot of roots in search of water and food. For six weeks she is a little on the short side for an autoflower. Your temps not too low at night?

It's taking nutrients from the oldest leaves, other growth looks good. So to me she looks hungry mate

Balcony Auto Gelato with Yellow and Brown Leaves I'm growing this auto gelato in a balcony safe from rain fall and harsh wind, it's the 25th day and the bottom leaves and cotyledon are turning yellow and with some brown traces. I started to use minimum amount of "all in one" fert. Do you think it is overfertilization issue?
