Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?
Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white

Yellow/ brown leaves #2 (pics didn’t post the 1st time)
Hey guys so my plants are starting to turn this yellowish color and I’m not sure what the problem could be. Sorry for the second pic, it’s kinda blurry but that’s the actual color compared to the other leaves. It’s my first grow and I’m kinda lost on a solution . Many thanks

Yellow leaves
Started seeing new leaves turning yellow at the edges on this BCN Critical Auto. I think it's a calcium deficiency based on my research. Would love to get a second opinion and some tips, if possible. Many thanks.

Yellowing some leaves
One of my plants(Quick one RQS) is yellowing some fan leaves. Is she just killing of them because she doesn't need them anymore or Is It some deficiency? The plants look very healthy.

Is this Nitrogen deficiency?
Is this Nitrogen deficiency? Mainly the lower leaves colored light green into yellow and just burst off. Now a few bigger leaves thought the plants are following the same pattern.

Lock out or lack of nutrients ?
I am having trouble identifying if this is a lockout or lack of nutrients. I was told to stop flora micro. I have been giving 50% strength of what the bottle suggests. My other plant same tent just had a lockout and I flushed.

CalMag or PK issue?
What is she telling me? Before I was thinking of a CalMag issue (upper leafs have "burned" tips and get yellowish). So I added it to the reservoir. Is it CalMag or maybe a PK issue, that resolves in a CalMag issue? See my diary for more details.

Yellow tips?
First timer here. What might be causing the small, yellow tips? The leaves sometimes look slightly pale but damn if they don’t look super healthy overall! I’m using minimal nutes thus far. Any insight? Thank you, thank you.

Yellow leaves and tips going brown
A few days ago I noticed some leaves turning yellow and today I noticed the tips of all the leaves look off. What am I doing wrong? To much/little watering? To many nutrients?

Nute Burn? Or something else?
I'm seeing a lot of yellowing and dead/curling leaves on my girls. I thought it was nute burn so my last 3 waterings were nute-free, CalMag Only and pH'd. It seems to be getting worse. Could this be something else? Any advice is greatly appreciated
