There's no pic but yellowing leaves on the bottom mean it's needing nitrogen. The yellowing from the plant pulling it from the old growth to the new. Be sure soil is loosened well. Poke holes near the edge of the container with a stake or a chopstick. To get feed and air to the roots. Easy on the nutes with an auto.
Thanx

Almost 70 so my vision isn't the sharpest. Are those white dots on the leaves? Have you checked thoroughly for bugs? Also blowing it up I see more than yellowing on the leaves affected.
My immediate thought is pH at the root level. The plant is twisted almost. Very thick main stem. Are you checking pH of your feeds?

No I haven't only fed the a couple of times it's been low stress trained that's why it's bent and thanks for being so helpful
Can you recommend a good pH tester plz
Should I remove the leaves ?
Sorry to be a nuisance I've checked leaves no white spots must have been reflection off camera

A real pH tester runs about $150 to measure soil. I adjust pH in feedings using litmus paper.

Trim those damaged leaves off. They don't help anymore and might be trouble ..
It's looking pretty good actually . You can get litmus strips at aquarium supplies or swimming pool supplies.

Looks pretty overwatered imo I wouldn't up the nitrogen too much till the plant is perky again

In fact I would suggest dropping nitrogen next feed if you're using 3 part. Eliminate the grow. Micros and bloom only at normal levels.
Yeah i agree if there's a chance of lockout you never want to give extra nutrients

Yellowing lower leaves usually means nitrogen deficiency but not here.

Oh my God that's amazing, an almost 70 year old grower giving newbies advice, what a legend. This is why I love this site. Have a good day my friend, and good luck op
Actually, I decided to give some advice aswell even though I'm also a newb, I'm not sure what soil you're using but it looks like it doesn't have very good drainage, not saying it's over watered right now but in the future it could happen, I recommend adding perlite to the mix if you transplant. Also, what kind of pot is that? Not sure if light hitting the roots through the side would be a problem or not, but I'd still recommend 3 gal (or whatever size you'd like) fabric smart pots next time around, they're amazing. Here's one of my babes so far, it's bagseed so I have no idea the genetics. Day 5 flowering, I also lst'd as you can see

Agree with above. Grow bags are it. My buckets are stacked outside for emergency use only.
Bought 25 5-gallon fabric bags from Ruth's Tree Farm. Disappointed as hell opening one of the bags of 5. Flimsy crap.
Wrong! I love these. I used Root Pouches before. Excellent . Heavyweight and handles. But these work perfect and are way cheap.
I have learned much from younger and new growers. People learn from so many places it's great to share info.
