Are they curling at all. Aif yes then it is probably a nute lock.
Flush them with 3 times the water as you have dirt.
If no curling i would guess defeicant give them some flower nutes.
Also what is the ph/
soil or hydro? What type of either?
Need more info and pics. For a better answer.

soil grow 4 weeks in budding using 400 hps and 5x150 cfls around it feeding 10-54-10 with molasses in water that's sat for 3 days. make my own co2 with yeast and sugger and water with a small fan blowing it on them if anyone can help please fill free to do so. thanks bros!!

Are you giving them that nute full streanth.
It def looks like nute burn.
Flush the shit out of them. It looks pretty bad so flush them good.

P is way too much,.. 10-20-20 is good for budding,.... your symptoms look way too advanced for flushing with only 4 weeks left to finish, but you can try to save them

ya, this is nute burn.. decrease light levels by 1/3,flush, and pure distilled water for one week, chop bad leaves, return light levels and nutes to previous level, wait and hope .. good luck

for the most part they look ok buddy...it just looks like your burning them a bit...the leaves will turn yellow anyway due to the lack of nitrogen they are getting during flowering so thats for the most part common...

thats the kind info i need thanks!! not all of them got hit yet a few of them are still green with no sines of burn yet. i flushed the hell out of them right off the bat. should i flush every day or as the soil drys out? and cutting off the leaves this helps? i always have let them go till thy fall off them selves so cutting them off helps? and i have some supper thrive(told it was snakeoil and then hear its grade a stuff) its not a fert its some kind of hormone with vit B it says its for root system will this help or should it be a no go. and yes thay have been budding for four weeks now but budding in spurts hairs start turnning red then bam whitehairs are comeing out again.

only flush them once...when you do it make sure you use somthin like flora clean because you can get a good flush with one watering. Never use superthrive during flowering because it contains hormones that will disrupt the flowering cycle...when you give it products like that and nitrogen during flowering cycle the plant focuses to much on vegetative growth...NEVER CUT THE LEAVES OFF...the plant needs them and will disregard them when its ready so just let them fall off...thats my opinion though but im pretty sure im on point with it.

thanks neno i think your right on point!! whats flora clean never heard of it? and yes i think the same thing about the leaves let the plant get what it can get out of them suck em dry. i wasn't even going to bud this batch out i was sexing them for out side but end up with almost all females didnt have room in my spot for all of them so i just let them go all the way inside after i got out what i wanted. i think out of 60 plants i got 7 males. i did cut one 1/4 ounce plant down and it was some strong shit nice and sweet!! much better then the mersh you get off the streets!!

Floraklean is a flushing agent.
It will help. But if you cant get it then water with 3 to 4 times the amount of soil will be fine.
The best way to flush. Give them a normal watering then wait 5 minutes. For the nutes and salts to absorb into the water.
Then run the rest of the water through it. A 1 gallon pot use 3 to 4 gallons and 3 gallon pot use 9 to 12 gallons per plant.
Super thrive is good stuff. Follow the directions.
I would only use it on healthy plants. And its a folior feed. So never in flower.
Aftert the flush when they dry out well. Cultivate the soil with your hands.(break it up).
Then water with very light nutes.very very lite. Then work it up to full streanth.
Hope this helps bro.

the plant has been unduly stressed with fertilizer, if there are yellow/brown/dead/dying leaves near the bottom of the plant that have been burned and/or not getting hardly any light, you do the plant a favor by chopping them off (the plant will keep redirecting sugars in an ill-favored attempt at saving the material instead of using this excess for the buds - just like a federal bail out :P ).. if you leave it as is thats fine, just know you are to a tiny degree lessening your final yield .. leave the healthy green large fan leaves, since the flesh is not in mortal danger, sugars will flow OUT (not in) in order to feed the buds... cheers
