Flowering, leaves yellowing too fast, hoping for mostly amber tricones, nitrogen?

Have removed the worse yellowed/dying leaves.

Flushed last week after suppected phosphorus burn/nute lockout. Two LED lights, one full spectrum, the other most red light (I guessed light burn originally as the worse effected leaves were at the top of the plant).

I've been away and over the last week had a friend water 3l a day after flush (light nutes of cal/mag, amino acid, veg mix, much lighter than previous no phosphorus related nutes). Substrate looks a bit too saturated after once a day watering.

I have read that nitrogen is needed if buds aren't maturing at the rate the nutes are being pulled from the leaves?

Most pistils are still white, tricones appear mostly clear currently. I am hoping for a mostly CBD result so want to let buds mature until amber tricones are achieved. Is this still possible?

Thank you for your time, first time grow.

Sorry to say this bit those plants have reveged and are clearly nuteburned.
Can it reveg? It's an auto and the lights are constantly on.

And the colas are looking good, pistils and tricones all present and showing mid to late flowering development.

I chose to grow and auto as I didn't have to worry about light schedules and revegging.

Actually I forgot the auto part. I dot think they can reveg, but those leaves look like that....
Sorry

No worries, I guess after the flush the over nute effect is still within the roots, hopefully there won't be the same browning of the leaves after removing the bad ones.
Do you think the bud sites look healthy enough?

Thanks
 
theyll live. youll be alright. what EC were you feeding at the past few weeks?

you said you suspected deficiencies so you bumped up the nutes? what were u feeding before the deficiencies and after you suspected the deficiencies?
 
I I had to make a wild guess I think that because of the note burn they had so much nitrogen it kind of reveged. It will live bit will the yield and the product be worth it, I don't know ...
If I where you I would germinate some seeds or take some clones, finish this harvest when you feel is right and move on to the next one as fast as you can.

If im hoest with you then I should say no. I think the plant is really struggling, you already know it was badly nutebiurned so I think next run will be better.

Fair enough, thanks for the honesty, I'm gonna be tending to it a lot closer now I've returned back home. I thinking of just giving ph balanced water until harvest now

What's EC?

I was concerned about pH levels throughout the grow and since it hit the flowering stage I started using phosphoric acid, and using it everytime to get 6.5ish pH. I then read that with a phosphorus overload will cause a lock out of other nutrients, especially cal/mag so I was adding this in low quantities after the flush. Also I added amino fish acids (5 or 6 drops in 3L watering).

Thanks
