i am watering them nearley every day as we are currently experiancing a serious heat wave. and feeding them with bio-gro liquid plant food at 5ml per 10liters of water once every 4 days. (ratio 8.0-2.0-6.0) cant work out if this is a naturall occuance as i know bottom leaves tend to yellow then die and fall off. but i just want to ask for some expert advice. is this a deficientcy or burn? i have added some pics. ph is fine. any help would be appritiated

for got to say, the nutes are for cannabis, it sais to water at 10ml per 10 liters so i'm watering them at half of risk of burning, it also sais feed every time you water, but i fell that the plants will burn if i do that. has ne one else used these nutes before? bio-gro from biobizz, a organic company based in NL. thanks

any body have any suggestions?

[m.g.]

yes, pots need to be shaded or kept out of direct sunlight. like jack said, it's best to get them into the ground as roots don't take heat very well. it's hot out here too and we have to water twice/day now...soon to be 3x/day once the heat of august arrives! and you have some nice bushes there which will require more water as they grow. i've found giving them less more times/day is better for them in high heat areas than just soaking them once or twice a day.

I'm not an expert. I do think, just looking at the pictures. Is that you should manicure your plant. It should provide better growth for the branches. I manicure my plant at least once a week. And Psymin get some Canna instead.
Gett some Terra Veg. Terra Flores and a small bottle of PK 13-14.
Right now your plant can use some Terra veg. And when it starts to flower, start using the Terra Flores, Both, but only half the dosage of the Terra Veg.
And 4-3 weeks before harvest use the PK 13-14 Only once and then flush.
But use the Terra Veg & Flores still, but at half strengh then. and then the last week just flush, no more nutrients anymore. But First Manicure your plant.

been doing a bit of research and feel it might be a Mg def, so i have added 1/2 table spoon of epsom salts to 10 litters of water. as the yellowing is getting worse. also have fed them again at a higher solution
