Anyone out there able to identify N deficiency on newer leaves or if the lighter color is just the way the strains new growth looks? I worry and have the habit of wanting to do more more more which I am trying to stop. Trying organic. Should I roll on, feed N, or top dress?

I don’t see any Nitrogen deficiency in these plants at all. The lighter green is just the new growth coming in these looks pretty healthy to myself. If you have nitrogen deficiency the older leaves towards the bottom of the plant will start to turn yellow, wilt and die off. This is due to the plant prioritizing new growth over old growth and is robing nitrogen from lower growth to support the new growth. Just be carful you don’t want to over due it and get into nitrogen toxicity. I myself am doing living organic soil and have red wigglers in my pots to break down organic fertilizers. Good luck!

Yellow leaves - new growth dark green. As health improves, can I expect yellow leaves to turn green?Once a leaf starts showing signs of ill health (yellowing, etc), what is the point of no return? I have been working with this plant for a couple weeks and can't seem to get the yellow leaves to "heal" - new growth seems healthy to me however. Any thoughts?Week 8

Yellow leavesHi guys, unfortunately because of an emergency I had to leave my 2 babys with some friends for three weeks. At the bottom some yellow leaves and like burning signs. I don't think it's because of over nutrition. They didn't get any for three weeks. Might be not enough nutrient?6y ago

Deficiency?My current grow is on its 5th week of flower and many lower leaves on each plant have begun to yellow then develop brown spots. I’ve did a little bit of research and I think it could be a nitrogen deficiency. Any help is appreciated.Leaves. Curl down

Should I trim off the damaged leaves?Should I trim off the bad/damaged leaves or leave them on? I'm not sure if it will help or stunt the growth even more(I don't know if that possible at this point but still). Do they even have a function after they got damaged the way they have? Please check my diary for picsLeaves. Color - Yellow
