I desperately need help with my plants they started to get brown dots, two days later they are yellowing bad and Crispin. I have no idea what to do my ph meter is fine so it can't be ph. Should I flush with plain water or not?

You are running into deficiencies because of the salt built up in your root mass. Give your plant a proper flush with nutrients and Cal-Mag with a runoff of 10-20% and do this regularly let's say every 10 days until harvest. What has been damage will not recover but your plant overall is healthy and will have no problems finishing and producing nice buds 😃

Well she's used all nitrogen.. and It's final leg of your grow so I'd let her fade and next time keep some nitrogen in my feeding schedule for week or two longer.. just a thought.. "If the yellowing leaves are at the top of your plant or the yellow leaves are mostly new growth, then you probably don't have a nitrogen deficiency. ... If new leaves aren't getting enough nitrogen, the plant will start to “steal” nitrogen from the older, lower leaves, so that it can give it to newer leaves." happy growing!

Hi mate you didnt overfeed them did you? I disagree that they are preparing themselves for harvest as they look weeks away yet. I'm not into this whole flushing business 2 weeks or so before harvest as I don't believe it's needed Only my 2 cents worth 😐

It's normal at this stage; as the harvest time approaches, the plant is consuming its stores of nutrients. No matter what you do, it will fade.

Hi @Brucey! My bet is that your watering schedule was too light to prevent salts buildup. Growing in a soilless medium, you must make sure to have a proper drain once every 2-3 feedings. Considering coco requires feeding almost everytime, it is highly important to see the runoff at least once a week. What's in the runoff will tell you how healthy your rootmass is. Give it a good flush under the shower, then let it dry a bit before going back to your nutrient schedule for the late flowering stage. Such big plant needs at least 20% of its container volume in water, if you have a 10L container you must give at least 2L of water. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊

It looks like pre-harvest fade (which is normal). If everything is in order like you said: Environment (temp, humidity), PH, feed schedule, etc. This strain is a 10-12 week strain according to the breeder, so you should see some yellowing of leaves during the last couple weeks of flower. Nothing you can do will stop the fade, don't increase the nutrients for sure. You could flush it and feed her a small amount if you feel necessary, but I don' t think it is yet. good luck and happy growing! 👊
