yellow leaf, brown spots deficiency
Beans416answered grow question 3y ago
Hey it looks like nitrogen deficiency. Buds are taking nitrogen from the leaves and not the soil.
Hope this helps happy growing.

Another thing to look at is where/what. Where/What leaves are affected. Old/bottom or new/top. My guess is N, P, and K, unless you have re potted recently.

EC too high and leaf yellowEC 1.45 and some yellow leaf… I adjusted the soup by adding water to it and the new leaves seem to be pretty ok. Otherwise, all other parameters are good. It’s odd bc I followed instructions of the brand (Platinium Hydroponics) and the EC lvl is still kinda high. Suggestions?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Yellow edges to leavesHello fellow growers. I have noticed some yellow edges to a handful of
her leaves. pH droped a bit today down to 5.6 but has been stable at about 6.4 previously. Photos from the last few days show this problem has been creeping for a couple of days. Any ideas?Week 10

Yesterday i see new yellow leaves (plant 2). I have just checked them again and on the second plant the two small leaves are now brownish. What could that be? I water every two days and the soil is not wet but slightly moist. The other plant 1 grows wonderfully.Week 1

Bottom leaves yellowing at beginning of flowerSo my plants have been flowering for about a week now and the lower fan leaves are yellowing with brown spots. Should I be feeding them more of the flower girl I’m using or is this a deficiency of a specific nutrient? (following dr earth feeding schedule designed for cannabis)Week 5

Yellow leaves at the end of flowering, should I worry?I can use some help on this one. I am pretty new. The variety is called Hawaiian Staycation. It has done well and we are in the last week or so of flowering. It got a bit dry in the tent and the leaves really yellowed. I plan on harvesting next week, should I be concerned?Week 10

Yellow leaves on the bottomMy cheese auto is getting yellow leaves at the bottom.
I'm not sure what's going on, it might be that it wanted more nutrients so I have added some nutes..
but I'm not sure.
it seems like the yellowing has stopped but I want to be sure,
since its an auto I don't want to stress iWeek 5
