So... I just moved my 14" lemon skunk plants from the veggie stage to the flowering stage. they were put on 12/12 about 4/5 days ago, I have yet to figure if they or male or female, but thats not the problem. All the plants have been extremely healthy looking until i started the flowering. Now every morning when I take the plants from their ventilated dark box, ive been noticing the bottom fan leaves yellowing, this seems to be getting worse each night. so far ive lost 2 sections of leaves from my biggest plant! can someone helo me identify this problem?? I can give more info if needed. I will try and get some pics to upload b4 the end of the day. thanks alot everyone!

Too much wet
Too little light
Too many plants in one pot
I bet that pot does not drain well either.

do you think it is too late to transplant them?? if not .. any suggestions on how you would go about doing it?? thanks alot btw. also should i use like a soil/ rock mix? can i use any kind of rocks? i been using straight soil and it seems like it gets too tightly compact sometimes. also do you think i can get away with 2 plants per pot or should i keep a pot for each plant??

Rocks don't lighten the soil. Use perlite.
It is too late to transplant. You can put the WHOLE MESS into a larger tub with lots of drain holes and fresh, light soil with perlite added, but trying to break apart those plants will probably kill them.
You need one pot per plant next time.

ok assume i just move them into a 5 gallon bucket with perlite added and some fresh soil? make sure i provide good drainage at the bottom of the buckset and all? do you think they will grow to maturity?

I don't know. That depends on a lot of factors. 5 gallon pails should have not only holes in the bottom, but also up the sides- at least 4 x 1/2" or larger side holes to help soil aeration and drainage.

i transplanted them into a five gallon bucket with 5 large holes in the bottom and 4 smaller holes on the sides. inside the bucket is large rocks st the bottom and smaller rocks on top of that. then i added nicely perlited soil on top of the rocks. the plants seem to be doing fine so far and seem to have much more room to breathe.
