leaf problem?
rimzytfa
started grow question 3y ago
Just found one of my top leaves turning yellowish, during flower. Just wanted to make sure if it’s the normal behaviour that I should expect or some kind of deficiency? Rest of the plant looks good

it looks fine and youre close to harvest so it can be attributed to natural senescense. i wouldnt worry about it.

This is normal for mid to late flower they are consuming the nutrients from the leaves. Think of a tree in autumn! What colour do they turn

Brown blotches fanleaves
Hey, About 3 fanleaves are showing some brown blotches on them (visible in week 5). I gave her 7ml of grow nutes and 5 cal/mag in case shes developing a deficiency. Any ideas to pin the cause down?

Stresst es Pflanzen sehr, wechseln von LED zu Sonne
Ich wollte mal fragen ob jemand Erfahrungen gemacht hat seine Pflanzen bei schönem Wetter raus zu stellen und bei normalem ins Zelt unter LED. Gibt es da negative oder positive Erfahrungen von euch? Ich habe ca.65k lumen unter der LED und die Sonne bringt es so auf 120k lumen...

I flushed with fox farm sledgehammer to remove excess salt build up like they recommend. Now all of my fan leaves are yellow and dying. Some of the sugar leaves are doing the same.. Any ideas?

folhas enrugadas, o que pode ser?
Aconteceu após eu precisar passar 3 dias longe do cultivo. As novas folhas apresentaram essa textura estranha e enrugada. Tem algo que eu possa fazer a respeito?

As pictured about three leaves on my Pyramid are showing a reddish spotting pattern between the leaf veins. I’m thinking calcium, possible low ph. Do any of you awesome folks have a different idea that I am missing?

Deficiency or toxicity
Stems are really purple, leaf stalks and veins also purple. Something is up. Some leaves starting to show burn spots but not many. She's a bit down because she needs a feeding. Is this magnesium deficiency? Should I be upping my nutes at this point this late in veg end of W9?

Hello fellow growers. some leaves are showing brown spots. I thought calium deficiency so started with adding Calmag to each watering. 0.7 ml/L I still see some new leaves getting spots after couple of days. could it be something else?

Yellow/Brown/Spotted/Crispy Lower Leaves
What is wrong here? Gave an extra dose of nutes but the problem only seems to be getting worse and spreading up the plant. Definitely effecting the bottom leaves more. Others said to just increase N-P-K ration, but this seems like something specific.

What is going on with the Special Kush? Check out her sugar leaves - and it's only on them, it's not in the buds and it's not on the fan leaves. Deficiency? The other plants don't have it. Some kind of fungus? I removed all leaves that had it, and it returned on the other leaves.

Plant starting to yellow too fast
The crystal meth has started going yellow very fast. The buds still have at least 2 weeks of growth needed to fatten out and pack the trichomes with thc.. I know it is normal to start dying but isn't this a bit early? Should I let her keep going as long as sugar leaves are alive?
