Upper leaves are yellow and not smooth
Kratistosstarted grow question 2y ago
I noticed leaves on top are closing and today are yellowish. Older plant aren’t stretching more, I thought it’s too much light or too hot but it’s kinda weird because light are at 40cm from longer plant and 50 from smaller, temperature are max 26C. So, it’s normal?

New growth usually looks like that, especially for the age of your plant.

I guess you should repot here.
The pot seems very small compared to the plant.
Therefore she might stopped the growth.

Yellow lower leavesHello,
This is my first grow and now I'm confronted with the first problem.
The lower leaves on my plants are turning bright and yellow. A few leaves have very small brown spots. Can someone help me and perhaps have an idea as to how I should proceed? Thanks.Leaves. Color - Yellow

I did mention in my comment that I water about 800 Ml twice per day split between 6 plants in the 1 large pot and can notice quite a few of the plants have slight yellowing. So not sure if this is a watering issue or nutrient problem or normal.Week 2

Alguna carencia?Veo algunas puntas de las hojas que se están quemando y poniendo amarillas.
¿Qué opináis? ¿Algún exceso o carencia? ¿Debería subir el pH?
Quiero corregir el problema antes de que vaya a más.

Yellow and purple leavesI stopped feeding beginning of the week because I had yellow tops on one of my buds. I think it is causing yellow leaves. Does that sound correct? Also I am seeing sort of a purple colouring on some of the leaves. Is that okay?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Help validating what this isMy plant seems to have developed some kind of deficiency/excess. I researched and think that it's CalMag deficiency, added CalMag to my nutes (1ml/l). Just wanted to check in with the experts here to get a second opinion. The growth seems slow I'm afraid I may have stunted her 🤦Week 2

What to do? → BF Runtz Auto - Day 42 - RH70, 80F in BioBizz Light SoilOn my last post, I was advised I have N tox, so I watered w/o BioGrow, just BioBloom and it's gotten much worse. The runoff EC was 1.5 (watered with 0.8, runoff pH was okay), so I’m guessing it's salt buildup. I plan to flush when this watering dries out—any thoughts?Buds. Not fattening

Yellowing Budsights Early Fower (organic grow)I fed the plants yesterday and noticed that it was too warm in the tent. (86F)
So I change the light time to 9pm-9am.
As a result, the plants had 24 hours of darkness in the tent.
When I turned on the light today I noticed that some of the buds had yellowed.

Botton leaves are turning yellow then fading awaySome bottom leaves of my three plants are turning yellow, it looks to me that they don't have enough nitrogen.
I have tried to double biobizz nutriment the last two times I have watered them but it doens't seems to make any difference.
What can cause this issue ? Thank youWeek 11
