Yellowing/ leaves dying

Beginning of week 4 flower and my girl is losing bottom leaves faster than I’ve ever seen. They are yellowing and falling off quicker than I think is healthy. However I also have burnt tips so it shouldn’t be due to underfeed. Rootbound maybe? Let me know

Good look'n plants dude but I do believe you may have id'd something needs to be rectified. Couple things here but my answer could easily change if I knew what kind of medium you're using (soil or soiless?). If it's not the light combined with the camera flash, the leaves on these plants look a little pale to me which, in combination with excessive yellowing of lower growth would suggest a slight nitrogen deficiency. Additionally, looks like a little rust spotting in one of those photos and that's a textbook calmag deficiency. Your only 1 week removed from the stretch so it's a good bet that these girls were absolutely devouring all the nitrogen and calmag they could find. While your nute mix ratios look good, I'd probably start by supplementing some calmag first and maybe dial back your nitro heavy veg. nute slower than recommended - give her a little extra N at this point than normal just to add some additional stores for the remaining weeks. Good news is that if it is deficient it's really not that bad and likely won't impact overall plant performance through flowering. Best of luck for the flower show dude👍

Hi.@ccthefarmer due to the color of the leaves, the plant is deficient in nitrogen and feeds on all the nitrogen present in the leaves and they turn yellow. the black spots of some leaves and yellowing between the veins of the leaves is also lacking in magnesium. Apply a medium dose of nitrogen rich fertilizer and a corrective dose of magnesium. Good luck in flowering mate 👍

Man I know everyone freaks out when they see this happening and people wanna throw food at the plants when they really just want normal schedule lol! But for real as your plants works to grow buds they drain all the energy out of the big older leaves 🍁 that looks like a deficiency when really it’s just the plant doing it’s thing! All your newer growth around the bud sites themselves are beautiful and your plant is good and healthy! I would just do a bit of defoliation on the leaves that are bad they should literally just fall off damn near when you touch them! I don’t think you have anything to worry about here! Good luck 👍🍀
