Is this phosphorus deficiency

If you have 5 weeks left they need to be fed to make you bud mass. There's no way that yellow plant has enough nitrogen in it. The huckleberry looks better, probably needs a bit less feeding. Me personally I'd put some fish emulsion to them next time I put fluids on them. I just put some blood meal on my big outside plants and they greened up real nice in 2 weeks, but they're in veg. Real hard to green them in flower, but you can stop them fading too much. You should be getting a little bit of a flush every time you put fluids on them too. Not too much since you're organic and they're kind of on the edge of being deficient, but a little flush is a good idea.

Epsom salts. It'll allow the plant to green up while simultaneously adding to the terpenes. Epsom salts, one tablespoon per gallon in their water.

Well I think the fading has slowed way down since the blood meal. I didn't end up getting the fish emulsion though.. buds are fattening up some now. And when I give a lil bud a pinch, wow do they smell good! Lol.. got a couple pics of my outdoor plants the other day. The tall sativa plant is a Sour diesel and the shorter plant is a Recon OG both bag seeds..

They look real good. If they greened up from the blood meal then you're probably good. My plants are doing real well on it. They're big and in a good organic mixture BUT it takes time for all that to become available. The bloodmeal kept me from having to give them a chemical fert.
Careful you don't give them much stress if it's bag seed. Mom popped a male stamen due to stress so her daughters will be inclined to do the same. Not as bad outside as inside though, but still they stand a good chance of making pollen under stress.

@Bill_Nye is pretty organic. Any idea what magnesium sulphate would do to his soil microorganisms? It seems pretty chemical to me but I'm not sure 100%. I use it in my hydro grows at the dose Jacks recommends. They use 1 gram per gallon.

I wouldn't say they greened back up but the fading has reduced significantly. Maybe in a couple days they'll start to darken up some. *Fingers crossed*.
I been keeping a eye on my outdoor too. The sour d is in full preflower mode and the recon is just starting to preflower.. I put them in ffof and didn't feed anything to them for like 2months. Last week I top dressed ewc, 444 and 284 amendments. The plants were given to me. My buddy had a really bad bug infestation. Literally was like 4 different bugs taking over the plants. I know I stressed them out when I got them. I took them out the buckets they were in and straight up put the plants on the ground and sprayed em with a water hose. Roots and all. I lost a good bit of roots but they bounced back quick and haven't seen a thrip or mite or gnat on em since..

Yes.

Update: 7 and half weeks since flip. Blood meal definitely helped.. they are looking good! Since my last post I've fed once. Believe I'm done feeding? 2 of the plants have a good bit of amber trichomes on the sugar leaves but only seen a couple on the buds.. guessing I have about 3weeks left or so?

Was hard to get good picture of triches

Yeah they look good. I stopped giving harvest advice because there's always someone who'll say wait 2 more weeks. Nice job.

Thanks! Yea, I don't see many amber triches on the actual bud. Here and there though. Most are on the sugar leaves. I still have a more white pistols and orange right now too.. I think 2 of the three will be done within the next 3weeks. The NPHC has no amber still and very few orange pistols..

Starting week 9! I know I hit some bumps in the Rd that I'll try to carefully avoid the next time around. But I believe these are nearing the end of their life cycle! Pritty exciting! They all have their own unique smell. And they smell awesome.. I'm going to shoot for 10-14day dry at 64° and 60% humidity. Anyone else have suggestions on drying methods? I'm going to dry trim as well. Last run I did a wet trim.

Yeah they look real nice. 10 - 14 drying days is how I do it but I shoot for 55% rh. I do my final trim dry and it won’t work at 60 rh. The little pieces of trim won’t break at 60% for me. I keep the buds in my dry/cure room after I final trim them, I don’t use jars anymore.

So I had my weeks wrong lol.. I was starting week 8, in week 9 now.. getting in anxious I guess lol.. but I believe a couple may be done

They look real good. Lots of folks on here are fans of running buds a long time in flower; I usually get forced into cutting because my clones are getting big. Really it’s up to you and how you like them, but I usually cut the end of week 9. The run in my signature went longer; end of week 11 but that was rare.

Finished. Been curing now for few weeks. Dried for 12days. First pic is the notorious Platinum Huckleberry Cookies bottom from right to left is purple Haze and gelato kiss. They turned out phenomenal!!
