Yea, its hard to NOT chop ugly leaves that are dying.. because well shit, they are ugly and dying who in their right mind would WANT ugly dying shit on their plant?

I've seen leaves I thought were dying come back. I cut them if more than half the leaf looks dead now, if less I give them a chance. Leaves are good. It doesn't make sense to want more light and fewer leaves. If an ugly leaf is working and helping the plant, it's beautiful to me.

Well I guess more light can penetrate into the inner foliage now that there are not dead leaves blocking it. Might have been a good idea, actually, now that I think about it.

Nothing wrong with pruning dead stuff every now and then, but chopping off perfectly healthy fanleaves...uh oooh. haha be careful talking about light penetration in front of lurk!! haha..

lol... yeah Ive only chopped bad leaves.
Sorry I havent been able to be on here as much... work is a motherfucker right now... barely time to sleep.. let alone maintain these damn threads...lol
anyhoot....
The lady with the deficiency does not seem to be doing any better... the browing spread to other leaves and now the whole damn thing looks like its actually dying... not too sure. Still the other ones are doing well. I took some pix of the damage.. I will post in a few minutes... Im thinkking I am going to keave it in there until I see it is closer to dead than alive... then I will chop it early..
Should I not let it get that close to dead before chopping? Or should I chop it sooner rather than later... ??
Any feedback would be great.
Thanks guys..... I promise Im going to look at ALL your threads this weekend!!
hope all is well....

Damn man that sucks. I hope it makes it. My last plant just fucking died out of nowhere, leaving me with a grand total of zero plants. Awesome.
And I feel you on work... I been busy as hell too.

Alex you should get yourself a 5l bottle of spring water with a ph of 6.0 6.2 and add 2-3 drops of ph down no nuts for like 2-4 days just run that you cant believe the difference i have had since i changed to spring water
i just switched to flowering day 1
hope your shit comes right man

Dude I'm really not sure what the hell happened with my last plant. I know I fucked up and didnt adjust the pH at all after changing out the rez, so probably it was unable to absorb much nutes for 24hrs or so, but I fixed that and she still just went downhill fast. It was defintely weird, just stopped drinking water completely and got all droopy... then died.
Well lets hope you don't see any weird shit going on with your other plants. That AG was so packed anyway that I'm sure your remaining ladies will like getting the extra light.

Yeah I was already using spring water... the plant got locked out, wouldnt drink water and dried up... had no choice but to chop. The other 3 look good, they are still green..lol.

pic 3 in both posts looks like some possible nute deficiencies starting up. how late are you into flower? probably should be expecting that at this point.
