Yellow lower leaves
Pjm70started grow question 2 years ago
Lower leaves are turning yellow. She just started her second week in flower.
My first thought is I'm not feeding enough. She is short, but still a lot of plant here. Here upper leaves are a nice shade of green. She prays all day long.
Is this a problem.

Looking picture perfect.
No problem, completly normal.
Plants tske up nutrients through roots but in flower they pull reserve from the lower leaves.
Yellow lower parts indeed indicate N deficit. In flower this is normal. They are budding up nice and look healthy
Dont feed extra N, start with fertilizer of your choice for flower cycle.

The heat is not an issue anymore. A month ago it was crazy. Day low 80s nights upper 60s. I do think more food.

There are more than 3 yellow leaves. About a dozen all together. They're mid to lower leaves. She is opened up a good amount. That is why I think it's a little more than, the sunlight not reaching the leaves.

yellowing and folding inward usually is excess heat....could also be nitrogen difficensy, as in flowering plant will dump nitrogen?

Little seedling having a hard timrSo guys;
I'm worried about this seedling. She's having trouble on keeping up with her sisters. I noticed a yelow color on their tinny tips 🤔
Cotiledons got brown pretty quickly too.
She took longer to "open" the cotiledons after popping from the soil.
Should I do something?? 🙏2 years ago

Weak yellowing leavesNot every single time but quite often my plants are turning yellow in the middle of flowering. It starts from bottom and follows to top. I can basically “take off” leaves off stem and the upper ones getting dry and brittle. I’m also quite sure the ph level is correct. Any guess?2 years ago

Calcium / PH issues? Did I take the correct steps?Am I on the right track to remedy my plant's issues? Seems like calcium deficiency to me. Soil test comes in at just under 6.5, my reservoir water going in is 7.3ph, in case its actually a lack of calcium and not the PH i've top dressed gypsum (and epsom salts).2 years ago

Underfeeding?Beginner grower here. Had some issues with underwatering and it's slowly recovering. Now am unsure if yellowing leaves are signs of underfeeding as it's still early in flower or due to the underwatering. Bottom leaves yellowing and dying off too.
