help 9 days to harvest (pic)

[penicylan]

I know this is a bad shot, had to use camera phone, but there is some yellowing and I started leeching a couple of days ago with plain water and adjusted ph. I have read the faq's and it says yellowing is normal, but is this normal? I am an old time grower, (see the stakes? lol) but am upgrading. trying to learn how to tie back instead of staking and cleaing out center leaves. any help would be appreciated. thanks

don't know what it is ... cuttings

I'd say that the plant is leeching the nitrogen out of the leaves. I'm given to understand that that's normal. I've also read that you don't want much (N) right now cuz it'll make the bud taste bad.

Are they really that lovely purple color or is that the pic?

thanks tommy girl ... i was hoping that is what it was. but the overnight yellowing was something i had never seen. i have 2 diff strains and the indica strain seems to have been yellowing most. they r getting better now. thanks for the help.

weedhound .... that is in fact purple. not just the pic.

Do you know what strain that is?
Add it to the purple list!
You're leaching, the plants are going to yellow, no worries.

I am not sure of the strain, I have 3 diff kinds growing. they were cuttings given to me from a friend of a friend. But I am going to research the purplish one, here are a couple of more pics, sorry but i only have camera phone capabilities.

sticky.... btw .... thanks for the reassurance. I needed that. I stopped growing 5 yrs ago and just recently started again. All these incredible hybrids piqued my interest
