You can either discard them or leave them I tend to remove them if it is covering a budsite.

You can remove them. it won't harm the plant. vice versa. buds below will get access to the light. your plants lack test substances. because they started to turn yellow like that.

Yellow Cotyledons?
NLxBB was born with yellow cotyledons. The shell was stuck after sprouting so I had to help remove it. Took around 2 days before I saw them barely open with new growth. The new growth is green and seems healthy. Is there any reason why this is happening?

Nutrient lockout? [first grow]
My plant’s started showing signs of nutrient burn, so I have flushed them with just water, after 1 day they turned to worse condition than before. Is it nutrient lockout? Or just deficient? Appreciate every feedback!

High Leaves stress in the last week!! PLS help!
Hi everyone! First indoor grow with autoflowers. Everything was fine until week 6, even after topping, but now in mid-flower the leaves show clear stress. I thought it was CalMag, but supplements haven’t helped. Any advice? I don’t want to lose my first harvest.

Still to early to tell? Noticed yesterday and have slightly worsened today. Not sure the issue but potentially magnesium? Getting close to top dress also.
Only on 1 of 3 plants so far. On older growth after getting dose of Recharge the other day. Maybe an N problem as I also use 484? Or mag? Using CalMag every other watering in RO at 150ppm as the soil has some cal and mag. Also getting close to top dress time maybe something else?

Brown spots on top leaves - nutrients, light or something else?
She went into flower, now stretching. Set light to 100%, added Bio-Bizz Top-Max and Bio-Bloom (1ml/L each). 3 days later brown spots appeared on top fan leaves, very few also on lower fan leaves. I suspect this could be light burn or nutrient related. Any ideas? Pls help

I noticed that the lower 2 leaves are yellowing and I think that are a little crispy. I topped the plant at the beginning of the week ago and I removed the first pair of leaves three days later ( yesterday). Do you think is this a problem? What can I do? Thank you. Peace

Spots on leaves
I'm still dealing with some spots that seem like cal-mag lock-out/deficiency but my PH is at 6.2-6.5. I think the light was too powerful I moved it up from about 16" to 18". I hope to have a lux meter soon to confirm any light stress issue. Still look like PH fluctuation?
