So- largest plant (photos above) yellowing lower fan leaves, overall light green colour on the entire plant. Possible Nitrogen deficiency? Otherwise she is healthy, budding up well and looks great. Any thoughts from the GD community? Thx as always!

Hello my friend😊 It is highly possible that it is possible Nitrogen deficiency Nitrogen deficiency in cannabis plants: When cannabis plants do not have a balanced nutrition and lack this element, there are anomalies in their development, visible through the morphology of the plant, which we call deficiencies. Plant growth is much slower. The leaves turn yellow little by little, starting with the lower parts of the plant. The chlorosis begins with the tips and extends to the center of the leaf. Plants have fewer defenses against insect or mite infestations, diseases and bad weather. Flowering and the eventual production of seeds are seriously diminished. Massive defoliation (leaf drop) after severe chlorosis. Deficiency progresses from the bottom to the top, affecting the youngest leaves last. To solve the problem quickly it will be necessary to add to the nutrient solution a fertilizer rich in nitrogen so that the plants can recover their optimum levels of this nutrient a few days after watering. During growth and during stretching, it is also possible to use a nitrogen fertilizer exceptionally directly as a foliar spray, for faster assimilation than by the roots. It should be noted that when plants have these deficiencies their production capacity has already decreased, so that it is important to maintain a balanced diet throughout the crop in order to obtain optimal quality and production. It is very important to bring enough nitrogen to the plant during periods of growth and stretch, because then once in full bloom, it will be very difficult or impossible to catch a nitrogen deficiency, the roots of the plant having at this stage lost almost all capacity of assimilation of this element. If the nitrogen reserves of the plant are not sufficient for the stretch, it will yellow quickly once in flowering. Good luck for your grow 😉 May the force be with you 💪

@momgrowsthechronic Yes you are more than likely correct that it needs nitrogen however I see your ph is 6.5 . When growing in coco and other soiless medium you should have your ph down at around 6 or anywhere between 5.9-6.3 because that is where the plant is able to assimilate, uptake and use all of the major and macro nutritional needs. During the initial flowering stretch your plant will require nitrogen more than anything else as it does a lot of growing and developing. So to fix your issue you should lower the ph and feed your plants a more Growth formulated nutrient mix until she shows signs of the stretch finishing and the nitrogen deficiency disapearing. Then you can move on to a bloom specific nutrient feeding regime but remember to keep that ph at the lower end of the scale I mentioned above I wish you luck

I agree with nitrogen deficiency. Yellow leaves usually indicate the plant wants more nitrogen. But it could also be a ph issue. Good luck!
