Hey Tokey... This looks most definitely like a nitrogen deficiency - but since you don't have a diary, all you're going to get here are guesses because it could be something else, too! Is your PH in a good range? This could be a lockout issue where you're giving enough nitrogen but the plant just isn't able to absorb it... in that case, you'd need to do a flush and start your feeding over again...
Do yourself a favor and start a diary so that when you have questions or run into a problem you need help with, the community will have as much information as possible to help you out!
Good luck!

Look like mostly Nitrogen deficiency and may be potassium a little as well.

I think there are also first burnt tips. I'm about to water her tonight, what should or should not give her? Thanks for your inputs🙏5 months ago

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant.
Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all?

2 autos with crispy feeling sad looking leaves, how can I help them? (more info in diary pl & crit)2 of my autos have been growing leaves that feel crispy and look deformed. I have been watering when the top 5 cm of the soil dries, but I fear maybe I fed them too much nutrients. The temp has also been on the high side (30C 80F). What could be wrong and what can I do for them?Leaves. Curl up

Advise to flush or feed in VegDoes this is look like a nute burn, deficiency, or ph problem? The two plants that are growing a tad taller have had yellowing tips some curling downward. Don’t want to overreact and cause it to worsen, they’re looking healthy otherwise. Any advise whether to flush or feed?Leaves. Curl down

Should I do full flush til runoff is 300ppm?So, it is obviously a deficiency, which probably caused by a lockout. Will the full flush solve it?
Yesterday I fed her a full dose of flowering nutes. Including K. It didn't change much. Lower fan leaves continue to go yellow.
Today 3L water, pH:6.2,
runoff:0.6l, ppm:1450, Ph6.0Leaves. Color - Yellow

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? ThIs this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks4 months ago

Starting to yellowSo I had good growth up until 2 days ago when the one plant started to yellow. I had them going 24 hours a day and I got grow dots mixed in the bottom two thirds of the pots. Could this be light stress? or could it be hungry?Leaves. Color - Yellow

I keep loosing leaves to some sort of nasty necrosis. It affects leaves at all levels, small and big randomly. I had to remove a lot of dying foliageAt first it looks like a asymmetrical spot of leaf starting to thin out to lighter color then tissue dries and turn black. I have high runoff EC3.3 and I blame Easy boost pellets because I only add rootjuice 1ml/L and sugar royal 0.5ml/L to my water. What is it and how I fix it?4 months ago
