Just tested my soil, Ph in both pots were around 6, I Noticed in both pots the N/P were pretty low The potash was good. Would this be the problem of my yellow dieing leaves? I use distilled water, and my nutes. Got a liquid test kit so I try to keep the ph of my water good.

Im Thinkin I should go out and buy some stuff to make myself a nice little veg box.
I want to start my next ones soon, I rather them be a couple weeks old before moving into the big one.

your on the right track to figuring it out. Did you see Chief's trick on his thread about what to do in a situation like yours?
I sure hope they can handle a few more weeks of stress without going hermie on you.....hurry....FIX IT!!!

your plants look right on... don't worry so much about the yellowing, I stressed out the first few girls i grew... I was so worried that she wouldn't make it another few weeks. She will... She looks a lot like the sour d I grew, Sativas seem to be a little more fragile in my experience.
I'm sure you have heard this but when it comes to nutes, less is more!!! if you feel you need to add a small shot of veg nutes with your flower nutes, do it, just not too much. I like water water water nutes water water water nutes... MJ is resilient. keep up the good grow. stay high

Nice, congrats on the ladies. Not too sure what the problem is, Going to try a shot of veg nutes. See how that works.
I know Less is More, I havent even given my ladies a full dose of Nutes since day one. But I tested the soil and Like I said Earlier High in Potash low on N/P
I Usually water, then next water with nutes, Depending on how they act, I will give them nutes or just water. Maybe Water w/ A little CalMag
I Test the Ph going in the pots, try to keep it right. I Use Distilled water or Purified w/ No organic matter.
I hope the veg nutes work, but I wont worry too much about my girls. Ill check out Chiefs threads see if my answers in there.

I'm glad I got a stand alone Nitro supp for part of my veg nutes so that way I can just add a little N to my P and K if needed!!

I just re-read all those deficiency posts and shit, I figure out of all the symptoms Its N or P Kinda what I thought in the first place by doing the soil test.
SO i gave it a tiny bit of veg juice and micro, see how that works. Lost alot of leaves, on the one all the older big fan leaves are gone, just the healthy looking new growth is there. The other is just slowly going yellow everywhere.

Damn it, where's the like button, new green growth is good, don't pull any dying leaves until there us no juice left in them, I think you'll be fine. Stay high.

Thats a nice feature, But I was also reading that In flower its natural for the leaves to start to yellow. It takes the remaining nutes and Stuff from older fan leaves to the new growth and lets those ones die off. One thing also said "Plants should be allowed to become N-deficient late in flowering for best
flavor." Not to sure what that means. Another person said that you should not add "n" this late in flowering. Im not sure if im going to do anything else to try an fix the problem, might just let it ride out and see how she goes. It is my first grow...
