Been giving them stimulators with the following:
Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, B, Mo

Parts of leaves going pale aka light greenHi guys, parts of some leaves of different strains start to go pale aka light green. I had an issue with ppm which I lowered to half of it, now it got back up again. The strains are almost ready to harvest. Should I worry about them or just not give a damn anymore?

Yellowing a bit too soonDuring the second week, leaves started to look a little bit yellow. The first true leaves yellowed way too soon. I'm guessing lack of nutrients. It never showed signs of drought or overwater stress. Your thoughts?
I planted it into larger 2.5 liter container now.3y ago

Hi fam, I’m not sure if the color variation is from different pheno’s or if there is a nutrient problem. Both plants have been fed the exact same but look way different. And the light colored one is getting some yellow/rust spots. What’s your thoughts?Week 5
