I have an odd situation, I have some girls, 7-8 weeks old. I'm under 2 600 watt HPS in Tent, good ventilation, 75 - 85 F. Good soil, good nutrients, good PH. The fan leaves just started falling off. I am to believe that about 1 - 2 weeks after the fan leaves start to fall off, it harvest time (Either that or the Tri's being cloudy or amber), I havent checked the tri's yet at 30X. Anyway, there a couple of different strains in there (mostly inidca and sativa mix). well this time I have 2 of the girls and their "covered" with red hairs. I mean like nothing I have ever seen ever before, "BUT" the calyx's have yet to swell? I added a organic flower hardener "Mendocino Avalanche" as I have noticed this induces the calyx's to swell. Patience is key here? Idea's? thanks again!

I could get some, but I'm more looking for info I don't have (which does not require pics) I'm pretty sure I'm on the right track, but I am looking for some expert opinions...

The only time my leaves drop off is when I'm cutting them with my trimmers.


Sure the odd one under my canopy that may not be getting enough light but they never all fall off.

I loose maybe 5-8 leaves from start to finish excluding the ones I cut off during training.


So its hard to see what your asking.

To me it sounds like you've got an under fed sick plant that's shedding its leaves because its stressing out.

Actually, it sounds like you are looking for information which we could easily supply if you posted some PICS! If you got lots of fan leaves yellowing (you don't say anything about color) and fallin' off and it isn't harvest time, within a week or 10 day, you probably have issues. Pics would be worth 1000 words. Up to you.

Good luck.

Actually, these pics don't look all that bad. I mean the pics pretty much suck, but the plants don't look to be in distress, as far as I can see. Hard to tell with the reflections. They look to be 7-8 weeks into flowering, not 7-8 weeks old. By the harvest time, these girls may lose most of their large fan leaves. But harvest time may only be that week or 10 days I mentioned earlier. I think they are gonna be okay :hump:
