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.

Leaves yellowing
These leaves are stressing me out. I’m not sure if I’m having a lockout or if I’m not feeding enough phosphorous. Either way, I’ve been using 3 ml/gal of tiger bloom, 3 ml/gal formulex, 3 ml/gal big bud & 1tbsp of molasses for feeding. What do I do ?

Leaf damage and flower analysis
Asking for thoughts on leaf damage. I think there may be nutrient shock so I will be reducing PPM to 800 to see if that helps. I am confused by other problems seen on a few leaves. I also want to ask if I am getting close to harvest (check flower pics) since this is an autoflower

Small brown points on older top leaves
1 week ago she started to get small brown points on older top leaves,and I moved her away from light to exclude light burn. Now there are a lot more of them. I flushed her 5 weeks ago, now she is getting full dosage of nutes. But these points look like nutrient deficient to me.

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?

Possible calcium def. or other issue affecting leaves and buds
Is this a calcium issue, and if so why is it spreading to this one bud in particular? There are four photos of the effected bud, as well as a few shots of unaffected buds to compare. Also have spotted leaves that look like ca issue but not sure why its spread to the one bud.

Beginning of week 8. Deficiency? Nute lockout? Normal for this stage of its life?
Beginning of week 8 and her leaves are showing more spots and discoloration everyday. Is this normal for an Auto in the late stages of flower? Or do I need to feed more? Maybe a flush? This strain says she takes about 10 weeks start 2 finish.

Help, what are those weird yellow spots in late veg?
Hello everybody, I've checked in on my plant after I was away from home for 2 day. Now I come back to see these ugly yellow spots? During day 23°C / 55% humid. During night 18°C / 50% humid. Checked the whole bud, but no insects. My other ideas are mold or stress from the light?
