Deficiency or Genetics

Midwest_X_Mayhemstarted grow question 4y ago

Would you guys guess the yellowing on these leaves is more natural coloration from genetics or do you guys see something more? Plant is definately small but seems to be healthy and buds keep growing.

I'm not seeing anything at all that causes concern... she could just be getting ready to end her life! And I don't think she's terribly short since you've done a lot of LST on her which keeps her short. Indica dominant autos WILL be short. Grow looks good - those buds look amazing! Good job!

One of my plants fans are yellowing, spotting, pretty badly. The medium PH is 6.5, same as my other plants, but she just doesn’t seem to be liking it. I’m using nutrients, but not heavily. About a quarter teaspoon per gallon of the flora trio. It’s the mid fans not bottom or new.

I recently bought some bud from a dispo. The strain is from Cookies and is called Willie’s Kush Cake and is 35% THC. I was lucky enough to find a seed in one of the nugs. If it turns out to be a male, can I cross it with a female auto flower and make a new auto flowering strain?

Yellow tint on new growth I've spotted some yellowing on new growth. I'm just in the end of Week 3 and am thinking it's caused by nutrient deficiencies? I've been sticking to 0.25ml/L and am planning to go to 1ml/L starting Week 4. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Strain info If you only know one half of the genetics of the seeds you got how do you follow any protocol...or do you just do what you been doing? Nova OG is the strain and my info may not be accurate.

Is it possible that maybe I underfed my plant and that's causing my actual problem? Is it something normal? Or there's something else going on with it that I should check and fix fast? In general the plant has a lighter green color and old leaves are getting yellow. Thanks!

Seeds in flower week 5 Finding multiple seeds in flowers unfortunately... Uploaded pictures on week 8. Since they're this far along, I thought it would be best to just keep them. In your experience, if they're seeds during week 5 of flower, is there going to be any smoke-able bud? Should I chop now?

What is this rust discoloration on leaves, and how can I stop it?Does anyone happen to know what is causing this rust colored discoloration on fan leaves? It starts on bottom leaves, and moves up. Also seeing yellowing on leaves, and not sure if its pest issue, light issue, deficiency, or watering concern. Super nervous plants are dying🙁

Noticed these yellow spots this morning. Not sure if this is a nute deficiency, leaf septoria or too much light. My lights were pretty low as my tent isn't very tall. Have been watering at around 6.4 and recently started feeding a full dose of Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom.
