Expert input only please. Major issue???

[richardskinner]

The plant in the back is really looking funny. Started with yellowing but seemed to produce okay. Now the margins of the leaves look like they're dying. I'm about 1-2 weeks away from harvest. In an expert opinion, is this plant salvageable?Attachment 280961Attachment 280960Attachment 280959Attachment 280958

It is not uncommon for a plants fan leaves and other to turn yellow when it is near harvest.It is the natural process of a plant shutting down.There many other factors that could effect a plant and cause it to get yellow fan leaves but being so close to harvest i wouldnt try to correct anything.If it is still swelling and producing the sticky icky i would just let her go .

Like already mentioned....no need to worry so close to harvest....

That plant looks fine to me....probably just ripening at a faster rate....

Only water, no nutes for the remainder of the grow....

Good job :thumbsup:....

If you still have 1-2 weeks left you can still feed 1 last time. if you begin flushing now so many leaves will yellow and begin dying that you will have a much greater chance of getting bud mold. Bud mold often starts where fan leaves connect to the stalk deep within the bud.

The best flushing results I have ever gotten for taste and quality were by doing two flushes back to back.
I flush with twice as much water as the container capacity. (5gal bucket would get 10gal of water. 10gal bucket gets 20gal water and so on.)

First flush is about 10 days from harvest.
Let the soil dry completely.
Second flush, same thing more water if you want. just make sure on the last flush you run water through the plant until the run-off is clear.
Let the soil completely dry out and then harvest.

Just make sure to pick those yellow leaves to help prevent mold.

Plants look fine though good job!
