3 weeks into flower check this out

[fishenfool06]

what is wrong with the leaves? any info would be great.

there is yellow along the edges. im getting worried because my last one did the same thing. by the end of flower the leaves were curled and discolored badly. I hope someone can help me so I can avoid this from happening again. I thought I cured the problem by cleaning up the water (put in a reverse osmosis system) but im just noticing yellow around the edges.

The first picture is 3 weeks in flower. The second picture is first try. that is what I want to avoid.

I'm a noob (disclaimer), but I think that is nutrient deficiency. If I did my home work right that means you need to flush the soil with pure water and start again. Essentially you are giving the plant too much nutes causing nute burn and my guess would be it has to do with the ppm (parts per million) of the nutes in relation to the amount of water you're giving it. Hopefully someone else will confirm or disconfirm this diagnosis.

Looks like a nitrogen def....Did the yellowing/browning start at the tip...?What are u ferting with?

 

[True G]

after checking the photos again i will definitely say thats a nitrogen def

Im flushing with pure water at this moment and im following a feeding regiment that was given to me by the supplier. I'm using Advanced Nutrients System and i just started with the last nutrient change using B52, 175 ml for 40 liters seems kind of heavy to me but thats what the instructions said. I Appreciate all your help and speedy replies

That's normal. When aplant is into it's flowering stage the leaves will do that so the flowers will have energy to bloom.The yellowing is the ending of the plants life. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

My plants always went yellow in flowering until I started useing fox farm Tiger bloom it will give them plenty nitrogen to keep them from yellowing. Now my plants never see yellow not in veg or not in flower room. They don't have to turn Yellow, I always thought they did but I was wrong!

I know you can't see them too well but there are 16 ladies in flowering from the far are the newest and the closer ones are the ones that are nearing the end of the line, I used to have Yellow leaves starting halfway down the line all the way to the harvest, Now if you could see, no Yellow No Way. Just Green and Healthy to the End.
Fox Farm Nutes from Veg to Harvest.

fox farms sounds like a winner to me! I will definately look into that at my local hydro store.

Ok check this out, I use FF ocean forest and Pearlite for my medium, then I use FF Grow Big in veg and one week before Sending a lady to Bloom I use FF Open Sesame. In flower room I use Tiger Bloom and two more weeks of Open Sesame, then I use Beastie Bloomz for 2 weeks then I switch to Cha Ching for the remaining time. And last but most important a must try, use a tbl spoon of Moleasses per gallon as soon as you see them starting to flower !!! LOL I triped out just after 2 weeks of useing Mole ass.

i think what ur doin is giving the plants too much salt i think or something that reverse osmosis contains too much of i dunno i read that somewhere try with some kind of another distilled water like spring water and flush it out for a couple weeks and it might have the buds gorw stornger and heavier i would guess

 

[fishenfool06]

that sounds like a lot, i use advance nuts , bloom A & B 120 mils , carboload 105 mils b52 175mils & 16 g big bud is there a way i can just add some more nitrogen to my mix?

i reduced all TDS down to 4 from 880 with the new system. there is also arsinic in or city water, its bad.

Plants need less nitrogen and more potass during flowering...so yellowing during flowering tells me that the fert you are using are giving less nitrogen during flowering however once a plant use to getting so much nitrogen during veg...it adapts and now show def...signs....

 

[fishenfool06]

so dos it meen i need to do somthing, that im not doing? or are the girls ok???? im looking at pix from other growers, were ther plants look good. is it hurting the final producd, having the yellow leaves?

 

[True G]

each leave supply the energy for the bud sites....so yes keep the leaves healthy ...

u can just use a lil bit o grow with teh bloom if u want more N
but it dont matter none if teh leafs r green or not

how much leaf u smoke? none?
plant just uses up power frum the leafs 2 make fat buds
the nutes u feed to keep the rest of the plant healthy get thrown away when u cut it down

i mean sure green is better earlier
but later in flowering u might as well let it use the stored nutes
