had a ? im in week 6 of flower and all my plants are nice and green all but 1 that is, about 1/4 of the fan leaves are yellow and dying off as to say there yellow then turn brown and are dead, and im just wondering why as the other 2 plant in the same res are doing great?? i do have to say the the 2 that are fine, were not topped or anything but the 1 with the yellow leafs on it i fimmed, and that plant alone is bigger than the other 5 combined, in tallness and outward growth. as well it alone has around 25 tops to it.at first i thought it might be a "n"def but i added some calmag+ and a lil more micro as it too has a good amount of "n" in it and it's still happening so is there something else i should try ?? and is it for sure a "n" problem?? if so why not the other 2 plants affected??
ps only the fan leaves are doing this nothin else on the plant is yellow and seems to still be flowering just fine still new growth no slowing down as far as that goes so i hope someone can help??

How'd pale,. I ant no hydro person but cannabis plants do tend to yellow even if uve feed em well, toward the end of flowering. Im a soil grower myself and there nothing too much too be concerned about, the plant will take from the fan leafs if needed. As you said yourself
the other plants dont show signs of it each plant is different how much longer do you intend to flower em, 2 ,3 more weeks if they are indica plants yellowing at week six ant a bigie..
the yellowing you describe would have me too concerned if they been good til now..

leaves yellow and drop off during the flowering stage ... the plant is concentrating on producing flowers and seeds to propogate itself, so no worries ... don't pull the leaves off, though, as the plant still uses them for photosynthesis and nutrients ... :smokin:

If that strain is meant to finish in 8 weeks or less, that's what you should start to see at about 6 weeks- the plant is using the Nitrogen stored in those leaves. It's good.

you dont have to worry about, as you can see here in these photos, they are in last week of flowering and the bottom leaves turns yellow and at some point died and drop.
except the last pic they have more 3 weeks to flower and i think they start to send all nitrogen stored in bottom leaves to the buds(flowers). and that its good, like stinky say it.
