Heyy, this is my first grow (along with another plant which ive already harvested) and im noticing some leave yellowing, plant stunting and the same happened with my first plant and i couldn't see what was the problem.
I use GH 3 Flora, Gro, and Micro but I'm still figuring out the dosages.
Also im noticing that stems are getting red (as you can see in picture) and leaves are pointing down
Do you guys think it's nitrogen deficiency?

Maybe im missing some info, feel free to ask me.

First thing to find out is what is the mediums or soils PH. If PH is in range then she is not locked out and is looking for food. Late in flower it is normal for the plant to consume the lower leaves but you look like you're in 3 or 4 week so a little early. Do you have a PH Pen ?

Looks like you’ve been flushing it out and is out of nutrients. When you water are you watering to the point of run off? And how often do you water?

Well i forgot to mention a thing, i overfed the plant since i was mixing my nutes with 1.7 liters of water instead of 3.7 liters(1 gallon) i flushed for a long time and ive been feeding her correctly the last week. you think its nutrient deficiency?
I only water when the soil feels really dried, i stick my finger in the soil to have an idea when to water and i try to do it every 2 days.

Ok so every 2-3 days should be fine. Flushing it is/was your issue. Pretty sure you just need to feed her. Give her a low dose of some Micro and Bloom maybe a drop of Grow too shit..Is that all your using? I’ve grown with just the 3 part GH and you don’t necessarily need anything else but maybe calmag or a carb booster.
When you water try not to get any run off from the bottom. Couple drops is fine.

Thanks alot man! I will follow your advice, let's see what happens, also, do you recommend getting bud blood and big bud? I have no idea what it is but i will research when i get home. Can i combine them with GH nutes?
Ps: I only intend to grow autoflowers since i only have a 60x60x150 grow tent.

Yea that’s why i posted my pics. I used GH 3 part Micro, Grow, Bloom at half strength only THE WHOLE GROW. But I did add a little bud blood and big bud. You don’t necessarily need those I think your fine with GH you might want to buy calmag if you use distilled water. Maybe carbo load would plump up your buds but it’s all about good conditions throughout the whole grow.

Forget the Big Bud. It’s unnecessary and expensive as hell. Just do what he recommended with the Micros and Bloom. Do add a touch of the Grow but not much. KISS.

I would say you don't want to go to the point of run-off, you want to be wasting about 30% of what you put in and in a way flushing out the old. If you only go to the point of run-off you will quickly go past your target.
