I have found the discussion of leaf fade interesting and don’t want to get into an argument about things for which I’m no expert.Only reason your leafs will lose color if they are starving overfeed or locked out.that myth about it stoping eating and canibalising itselfe because your bud is finishing is stupid as fuck.weed is not a tomato that lives 1 year.its a multiyear plant.
You are in healthy levels but magnesium and nitrogen could get a tiny boost
But isn’t senescence perfectly natural in a flowering plant like cannabis? I’ve certainly read this in many well informed places, some even arguing that natural senescence helps improve the flavor profile. Again, I don’t know anything definitively on the matter, but senescence is not bro science. It takes unnatural action to prevent it. Whether or not this is necessary or better for the final product - don’t know - but the idea that plant fade is not natural or healthy is debatable.
This plant was clearly harvested early however. The lower leaves are still very vibrant. Maybe too much light on the top layer, or the beginning of senescence that should have been allowed to progress a few more weeks?
