Leaf Discoloration - Hopefully Nothing
I'm looking to rest my concerns that these removed fan leaves from lower/center canopy are not simply just appearing so due to lack of light and prior plant tie damage. Focus on the yellow/brown discoloration, actual physical damage is accounted for. More details in main post.

Upward curling of leaves
One of my plants has started to have it's lower leaves curl upwards & started to go a yellow tint that's harder to see in my images. Yellow tint is starting higher up as well I think, but the curling is only on the low leaves. Is it nutrient defficiency, heat stress, wind stress?

Leaf diagnosis: nutrient burn or deficiency (or both)?
he leaves with the burnt tips appear to be more prominent at the top of the canopy, only affecting new leaves. A handful of these leaves look a little twisted. Meanwhile, the yellowing leaves are more prominent in the middle of the plant, just below the canopy

Yellowing plant
Why is my plant yellow? I thought nitrogen or magnesium or PH. But i tested everything and it is still yellow. I tried flushing and using no nutrients but didnt help. PH is good, tried giving extra nitrogen and magnesium. What else can it be?

Yellowing sugar leaves?
Does this yellowing on the sugar leaves look problematic? I know the end is near so I don’t want to do any damage this close to harvest. Think another week will be long enough? Vermiculite/Perlite/Soil @ 40-40-10% Lotus Bloom @ 1/2 dose (700ppm) 100w LED 14” above canopy

Yellowing of leaves during flower
What is causing yellowing of the bottom/backside fan leaves during week 5 of flower? Should I worry about it spreading? Increased bloom nutrients to 3ml/l recently but could have started when feeding 2ml/l. Or is this just leaves yellowing as a part of flowering?

Northern lights with yellowing leaves
Hey Guys, my NL is starting to have some issues. I started off with the leaves just laying low, i've eliminated lack and excess water, and it's not temperature related. I did a small flush 3 days ago and things got worse. What do you guys think?

overnight yellow leaves with brown spots
These leaves (about halfway up on #1) turned yellow with brown spots overnight. I didn't check the soil before giving it nutrients two nights ago so I was wondering if it has to do with overfeeding. The soil is damp and kinda packed together. Any idea what's going on?

YELLOWING LEAVES
HELP! I am super, Not Happy, about (what I’m assuming is), Light Bleaching. Everything I’ve read points to Light-Bleaching. In every post I’ve seen, “Nute. Burn” has fairly distinct “burning” & crispy edges around the leaves.
