Help my leaves are dying from bottom up.

[missy2481]

Well this is my first grow and I'm looking for some advice. My leaves are turning yellow and folding from the bottom up. I don't think it is heat stress only because the top of my plant looks okay to me. My only concern is that the top leaves are sort of reaching for the sky not to much though. So I was thinking I have a nitrogen deficiency so I went and bought some bat quano. If it's not a nitrogen def, what else should I do?Attachment 287590

It's completely normal, man. You don't need to do anything other than to remove them.

Okay good to know. Should I take them off now? Also what if the next ones up start to do the same. This is my first grow I don't want her to die.

The closer your plants get to flowering, the more of this you'll see. Remove them so your plants focus their energy on bud production, rather than repairing half dead leaves. Im a first time grower also.

If I may chime in, this isn't necessarily normal. But, the lower leaves do have a tendency to Get all sorts of crazy on ya. This can be due to a multitude of things, from ph lockout to over feeding to bound roots/root rot. Fortunately I don't think any of these are your problem if these are the only two leaves that look like this. However, lets talk about your node spacing. It's huge! Like your plant is stretching really bad. How tall is your plant and how many nodes does it have? It looks like its stretching really bad to me. My plants nodes tend to be no more than a couple inches apart, any more than that usually points to a lack of light. What's your lighting situation?
