It doesn't appear to me to be anything beyond a simple lack of N from the switch to flowering ferts. A dose of veg ferts in place of the flowering ferts for an application or two won't hurt then give it a couple days and tell us how they look. Expect to see more yellowing of the fan leaves as the plant ripens, especially the last few weeks but it is a bit early now to have that much yellowing. If they were mine I'd also add a little "Dark Energy" as a supplement to the ferts.

I agree! :)

while its common to have a nitrogen deficiency in flowering dont really think thats your problem, as the veins of the leaf remain dark green there is several things that could cause this the most common is magnesium deficiency, could also be caused by an iron or zinc defeciency.
would probably start by checking your ph and adjust if needed and feeding with epsom salt or cal mag to see if it improves.

look at the color in the veins...there is no way its N. bejay im agree with you and im will start feed with epson salt today.

Mg def
Could be either def or lockout
Check runoff pH
if pH is okay, it's just deficiency, feed with epsom salts.
If pH is off, you will have to adjust it and also try a foliar feed to correct.

N def does not show as distinct banding as those leaves are showing.

hahaha yup I sure did.
I'll check 'Indoor' for your Q's and try to help!
Attic grows are a real pain in the tucas but the easiest to hide IMO.

Yeah. I think I gave a bunch on dr hashmans stealth attic grow, but my advice is pretty much insulate as muich as you think you need to, and then insulate some more, because temperature control is a fucking BITCH up there. If you don't have a window to hang an ac out of, or central air, plus a good spot to exhaust, don't even bother.
Honestly cellar grows are easiest because the cool ground is insulating, but when your water heater explodes, you have to clean up beofre the plumber gets there, ya know?

Ok guys problem is just getting worse. Ive been foliar and feeding epson salts. Could this be a zinc problem. My PH is ay 6.7 and Zinc Deficiencies are cause when the PH is to high, so Im all outta ideas...

what type of nutes are you using and how often and are you growing in soil?
could be a zinc or iron deficiency as there is several that have the same symptoms, magnesium deficiency usually has a few leaves curling up at the tip wich I dont see any of yours curling up.

Im using my trusty fox farm products, every other watering..the same method that has given me great results I am all outta ideas, please help lol!
The new leaves are looking pretty small compaired to normal leaves....that is why im leaning to zinc.
