@Mistertemps Whilst temp can play a part in colour The colours you are seeing is called fading It happens as the plant gets closer to harvest it starts Cannibilising it's leaves for energy thus the leaves colour changes accordingly
Your buds look fantastic Congrats on what should be a fine harvest 👌

This far in the grow it is normal. And means you're close to harvest but earlier on and it would be a problem

Bruising or nute problem?I do not have enough characters here, please check diary for details. Some tops are showing some problems. The thing is, only a few and it does not seem related to light distance. My first thoughts is this is bruising, but I would like some more expert opinions.4 years ago

dying top fan leavesAll of my 3 plants are receiving the same treatment but one of them is showing signs of distress. Some of the top fan leaves are getting dry and brittle and dying. I thought perhaps the problem is I haven't been allowing enough run off?Week 5

Pale green leaves with reddish tips?Stress at the top of the canopy. Is this heat stress, light burn, or a combo? Something else?
Temp in the tent hit 92.5 F at one point, but it's been high 80's in the tent and the leaf surface temp's have been low 80's.
Light was 14 inches at one point but now 24 inches4 years ago

Brown leaves and red stems. Is this a calcium deficiency ?I had an iron toxicity recently that may explain the brown parts but it may look like calcium deficiency. There are many red stems too but it maybe something else like the bad Ph and overfeeding from the previous month. What do you think ? Thanks !!3 years ago
