Help please turning yellow fast

This is not a replacement for a ph test kit or ph pen, and using nutrients to adjust ph is a bad idea. Feed per instructions, and get something to monitor your ph. It's quite important.

Foliar feeding can build-up crap on the leaves, which can intefere with photosynthesis and transpiration. (clogs the stoma's, which are tiny pores that the leaves use for air-gas exchange. Clog those, the plant can't 'breathe'.
Rinse the leaves every couple of days if you feel you MUST foliar feed. Personally, I foliar feed maybe once or twice a year, and only to correct deficiencies. Never do I foliar feed 'just because the directions say I can'. Overfeeding can and will stress the ladies. If you foliar spray too often, especially in warm and stagnant environments, you risk developing mold issues.
Although a 24/0 light schedule eliminates the worry of night time light leaks, I much prefer a 18/6 schedule. So do my ladies.
Don't move the bag(s) around too much. You can easily fold, spindle or mutilate the roots if not careful.
Pictures would definatelly help. :thumbsup:
