Plant needs more potassium. A P/K booster will help, or increase the amount if you are already using some.

Most likely turning yellow because it's getting to the end of its life cycle.... I don't see anything to worry about except the length of time you're going to be in trim jail in the near future! Good luck!

Flushing stage - leaves not yellowing Hi guys, la confidential and fat banana here. I've been flushing for just over a week now and have reduced nutes to 500TDS. The leaves aren't yellowing yet though which means the plants still feeding from the soil. I've used 'flawless finish' to help also.Any ideas?Is it an issue

Yellowing and Reddening of older fan leaves I’m experiencing a lot of yellowing that progresses into dark red blotches. I suspected a possible cal mag deficiency but after upping the dose multiple times I’m still having issues. Any recommendations on possible causes/treatments?

Why are leaves yellow?As shown in the photos, I find yellow leaves of Northern Lights Auto. Until yesterday she has been growing in good health, but now her leaves look drooping and some of them yellow. Also she does not drink water. Why do you think it is? (deficit of nutrients?)

Too Much Light?Top looks yellowish, more so IRL than in the pic and the new growth is kinda taco-ing. Just under 24" from the light, 78F and using Photone the DLI was at ~30. I don't really trust that app but if it's even sorta accurate, 30 might be high with no CO2? says their charts anyways.
