In the late stages of flowering fan leaves will begin to yellow and die off starting at the bottom of the plant. I would start weening it off nutes at this point.

The cuts on the leafs are from my fan hitting them and ive been tearing off dead parts of the leafs...

Hmmm mayb....Ive been giving them 7N - 21P - 7K Nutes but only in very light doses. I fill up a 12oz bottle of water and add mayb 1/8 of what the dose calls for (Teaspon for every Gallon)....

Next time i water i might add more but im thinking about flushing considering i only have 3-4 weeks left....

I have been growing these ice babies for 3 weeks now and have notice that the first leaves are starting to go yellow in patches, starting from the tip and slowly heading towards the centre. They seem to be drying and then cracking after that. A few of the mid leaves are getting a little spotty as well.... Im guessing that its not light burning... Is it because of over feeding at such a young stage or too much water?? Any help with this would be much appreciated! Here are some pics to help show what Ive explained.

Colem8, Are you giving them nutes??? It looks like they need nitrogen

 

[LeRoy JaBluntski]

dude your giving them the wrong nutes. In the stage your in now you want a fertilizer w/ high nitrogen(N) and low potassium(K) and phosphorus(P). The nutes your using now are for the flowering stage and they still aren't that great because there should be more P and K then N. So i would suggest going to walmart and getting some fish emulsion which is 5-1-1. This and a small bottle of superthrive just to revive your plants a little and get them back on track. Good Luck

how big are your plants? They are too small for 5 weeks into flowering. Are they clones or seeds?

 

[LeRoy JaBluntski]

yo lol i just went through through your journal... i'm high and never saw it. As the plant looks real good the leaves do that as the plant uses all its energy now to bud (flower) instead of photosythesis through the leaves so they start to die off.

Your doing good keep it up man
