Sudden Leaf Yellowing – Lighting Issue or Something Else?
fathermichaelstarted grow question a month ago
Hello! Yesterday, I noticed the top leaves turning slightly yellow, but today it looks dramatic. Check the pictures—leaves are yellowing and drying out rapidly. It’s only affecting the central leaves, so I suspect a lighting issue, but I’d like to confirm before taking action.

It looks like it is getting too warm and possibly a correct amount of water. Like it's getting too dry is a possibility. Go super easy on nitrogen. A flowering npk ratio is 1-2-3.

Fellow growers, after a few weeks of beautifull growth, I now start to get yellowing leaves which dry up and starve. I am. I am doubting between a lack of nutrification or over nutrification. I suspect the latter (biocanna nutrients and soil). Any ideas? Thanks!!Week 6

One of three plants curled its leaves.One of these three seeds seems to have suffered a bit, but unsure why - the conditions have been pretty much identical from what I can tell. The first set of leaves curled quite significantly but the new growth seems to be ok? Any ideas?Week 2
