Its a chronic thing i think, mine do the same crap. It get bad again late into flowering, the plant leterly digests itself to get every bit of energy to the buds.

As long as the new growth on your clones are nice and green there isn't any problem. The fans that where used in the cloning stage were partially cannibalized while the plant was developing roots. These leaves do get yellow and fall off. If new growth is turning color and falling off then there is a problem.

Thx man, but my other clones are doing fine. 3 out of 7 have this issue. It almost looks like a fungus on one of the plants. The other 2, it just kills the leaves. Using very little fert and holding back on the water alittle until I get it figured out.
Cheers!

Thanks for the info. The clones are approx 16in tall and mainly the lower to middle leaves seem to be getting hit with this. These are in the veg stage and having trouble growing. Leaves seem to be deformed and stunted. Could it be a PH issue with locked up nuits? Have done this before but this is my first time with issues. Still don't have a PH tester tho, stupid I know.
Anyways, thx again and cheers!

I feed my moms and my rooted clones the spent water from my budders which I change every five days. My moms get fed with an electronic valve system activated by a timer. I feed the freshly rooted clones with a pump up sprayer. It is important to clean new clones with fresh water from the sprayer. I keep everything in or on rock so drainage isn't a problem for me.
