Hey there, my wedding cake auto is into flowering stage and yellow leaves are showing, what do you think? End of flowering or deficiency? As you can see It only appears on the left bud in the photo. Thanks

Thanks for the answer! Ok so do you think I have to stop feeding my plant and start flushing at this point? My baby still have white pistils in development

It’s called the Die Back... it happens when the plant didn’t get enough Nitrogen during the stretch. Roots are processing Potassium and Phosphorus at this stage. The plant is moving its Nitrogen stocked in the leaves. Adding Nitrogen won’t solve the problem, the roots won’t use it. Feel free to check my diary SPLIFFSEEDS.NL, there’s everything explained on the Die Back and how to avoid it.

Yellow lower leaves Hi! I went out for the weekend and when i came back most of my plants had yellow lower leaves. The weekend has been very very hot and im wondering if it was lack of watering or is it a lack of nitrogen? Some in one plant the leaves were dead.

Yellow lower leaves on 8-9 week old plants - Deficiency or age of plant?Lower leaves are starting to yellow on some of the plants. I think I have corrected my cal/mag issues but now these yellow leaves. Going into week 9 of flower. Is this normal because of the age of the mature plant or a deficiency? Or is it still cal/mag deficiency?
