I would only be feeding her once a week, or more specifically, a plain water/plain water/feed/plain water/plain water/feed schedule. Since she is growing in soil, you want her to finish one dose of nutrients before giving any more, hence the plain water/plain water/feed routine. Apart from that, there is nothing really to be too concerned over, just a slight hint of nutrient burn from over feeding. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Hey Everyone! Thanks a lot for you input. I have uploaded more photos of the yellow leaves in week 9 of my diary. Here are some more info as requested : @Roberts: Current pH - 6.41 (check photo in week 9 of the diary) Current TDS - 340 ppm (check photo in week 9 of the diary) I got those by taking some soil and pouring distilled water. After more or less 24h I have drained the water through a paper towel and took the measures. @Organoman: I am using 15l textile pot. I water every 3-4 days depending on how dry is the soil. Every time I water I use 2l of mineral water ( pH 5.80 and 13 TDS) mixed with the recommended amount of X-cel and PK 13-14. Should I water more often with less or ? @ChitownCannaChica I did got attacked by a grasshopper and got few leaves bit bitten but since then there where not bugs. I do have a mini microscope and I do check for any of them pests. I currently do not have any IPM. Any recommendation? Thanks again for everyone's help!

That doesn’t look like nutrient damage, but more like thrips. What’s your ipm?

Here is what I would do. In flowering your plant wants potassium and phosphorus mainly. Nitrogen should wien off as flowering goes. TDS should be 1000 to 1400 range depending on plant size for a auto a few weeks from harvest. It is either nutrition burn or a potassium deficiency. It's really hard to tell. It's pretty early and I do not know exact amounts your feeding. I would check run off ph first though

Hey Roberts ! Thanks for the comment. So should I flush it? and for how long? Also I have been advice by a member to add CalMag? should I hold it for after the flush? (If I should do one)

Looks like your starting to get nutrition burn. In most cases half the bottle dose is too much. I would also check your run off ph. High dosing of nutrition can effect ph greatly if plant is not using it all in timely manner.
