Bottom leaves yellow and falling
PersasHstarted grow question 5y ago
Hi! im experiencing yellowing and falling leaves in all the strains i planted 5 weeks ago. Only lower leaves. Thought it could be nitrogen deficency but already fed them with N nutrient and still slowly yellowing from bottom to top. All plants are in early flowering stage.

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

Yellow centre veins fan leavesYellowing of the inner vein of fan leaves only. Also sporadic yellowing and blemishes of whole fan leaves but only some, others fine nice and green. All bud leaves and buds don't appear affected. Is it just that she's nearing the end of her life cycle? Or over water/over nute?3y ago

Beginning of Week 2 - Yellowing? Over/UnderFeeding?Are these first leaves showing some yellowing or is this a normal shade for leaves at this point. Just wondering if I might have overfed the plants, or even the opposite. If anyone was able to share what they think it would be extremely appreciated.3y ago

Day 20 Flower. Leaves curlingLeaves curled over 12 hour light cycle. Ph 6.0. Ppm 950.
I have been battling ph drop for a week. Lowered Ppm to 900 from 1100. Seems to have stabilized the ph and now the leaves are doing this.
I’m looking to do the day 21 strip of most leaves tomorrow. Should I be concerned?Leaves. Curl up

What is going on with my drooping leaves?Top leaves droop in the morning/evening (lights on), but stand up midday. Thought I overwatered, but pot bottom was dry—started watering more. Raised lights, no change. Symptoms for 10 days, not worsening. Tent is 29°C, can't cool it—could that be the cause?Leaves. Dropping off

Brown/rust spots and yellow leaves at the bottomPlant in late veg (soil) is showing spreading brown/rust spots on upper leaves and rapid yellowing on lower leaves. Frist only at one plant and now at the others too. I suspect a pH-induced Cal-Mag lockout. But I always check pH to be around 6,5. What should I do?Leaves. Tips - Die
