@Snoopmarleynelson - looks good to me honestly its probably just a bit underfed. This is the normal process of these plants , when there is insufficient nutes the first leaves to go are the oldest. In reality, as you grow in experience you will see plants behave in all sorts of ways, in response to all sorts of things, I know its hard watching good leaves go, try feeding a bit more on the next watering and consider switching to deep water culture or another form of hydro, your plant looks healthy and happy, I am sure it will finish without much fuss.

not gonna lie, you might be right - but with the flush and proper feeding - the goal is to finish or get close enough to the finish line that you can harvest, I don't see that being an issue here.

Lockout from to many nutrients. I would actually stop feeding if it was mine. I have one strain that looks like shit from nutrient burn and one that is thriving. Both planted same time same dirt same pots. The one that is thriving is very close to nutrient burn while the other is over the threshold and shes pissed but still not terrible. The dirt I went with this time around was just a touch to hot.

So should I feed more or not at all it seems like the yellowing came to a halt the leaves I left on that still had some green still looks identical and aren’t progressing but at the same time I’m not sure if flower stretch is completely over but leaves are not getting any bigger and I’m not noticing any trichome development?

If you can tell by looking at the older picture it’s came to a halt
I would give plain water for another watering or two and see what happens. If all the leaves start getting lighter green, she is hungry. If growth is very good and no issues present themselves, then your dirt is feeding her just fine. You are at the beginning of flower, it will be a couple weeks before she really gets hungry.

She continued yellowing I fed her bloom nutz again this time I used the outside plant instructions that says one tablespoon instead of 1/2 tablespoon per gallon for indoor plants which I hope will solve my issue

Here’s an update! Looking more beautiful than ever!! Definitely solved my deficiency issue I feed her with the outside plant recommended amount which is 1 full scoop of jacks instead of quarter scoop for indoor plants and that did the trick for sure!
you love to see it!
