14 days into flower, yellow leaves in order of oldest to youngest in about 4 days

:grin: Panic- ....took a good look at the leaves, and I looked up your nutes N-P-K's.... Grow is 2-1-1, , and Bloom is 0-3-1, very very mild, IMO both not conc. enough, period,...even with pretty hot soil like FFOF (it's seedlings that often have trouble with this soil for starting- too hot!)....this is the dilemma organic growers face, lack of oommphh in the nute's! When we're talking 16-16-16, then you have to be careful about easing into full strength dosing,.. so to my eyes, given the very low N input, the way the leaves are losing color all over, more or less evenly, without brown spots or tips/margins, occurring on lower leaves, it's N defc.,.... Even though during flowering, P and K are emphasized, the plant still needs a significant amout of N, which has more roles that just growth in plant nutrition,... besides, think of all the mass budding puts on a plant, and N is a primary building block of tissues, right? There are no micronute defc. here, that I can see... Nammy's right, yellowing is indeed normal, particularly toward the end, which is fine... you want the plant working hard to scavange out the last of the nutes, tap into her leaves, and progress into that final ripening... But bromeo is right too, about feeding at recommended concentrations, especially with these super mild nute's! ....now's a bit early for such yellowing, so give her a blend of your grow and bloom mixed, full conc., at least once, maybe twice, before you go into cleanse mode for a week or so, which is fine for soils,... :tiphat: Holla' if you have questions mate... Otherwise, she looks fine!
 
Thanks again guys. Im glad you guys are doing the research behind this. I was going to post the link to EJ products.
 
5 days ago i gave the plant a 1/2 of grow and full bloom. So you think it just might be to weak? Also this plant is from buddah seeds, i got the variety pack (which they didn't label), which is ten of their popular seeds, one of here popular seeds is a purple kush. The reason i mention this is that the first fan leaves that got yellow now have a red-ish tint now. I am going to go through some purple kush grow videos/journals/posts. Thanks.
 
:tiphat: Buddha Seeds are great quality, lots of fine grows here of their gear,... PK won't show color until the bud crowns form, so if you're seeing red tinting on stems, it's likely a defc. issue,... yeah, I'm afraid those organic nute's are too mild,... mind you, I'm no expert in that line of products, so I can't say if others have had equivalent results to inorganic ferts... all I can say is look at the N-P-K #'s on various nute' lines, and supp's,... and keep in mind many get their plants to take full to near full strength....even in good soil! -also, how often they fertilize is a key element to avoiding build-up... some do once a week, others more often but dilute it down some,... All this with an eye to the size of the plant, and therefore how much draw it has on the resources,... *** For now, let this one finish with what you have,... it's too late to be bombing her with nutes anyway,... next grow, if you want to stay with only organic nute's, dig around in the organics section to see what options you have for better conc. in fert's... if not, you have a ton of choices for nute' lines, some being tested here all the time!
 
Just an update It took 3 days for the plant to drink the gallon of epsom solution. Today,I gave it a full dose of bloom and grow, waira is right its not that concentrated and a dose of N won't kill it(im sure its going to help it if anything). This plant smells great not like the overwhelming skunk, but really like citrus or maybe even fake orange spray and it is sticky... a moth got stuck to it. Ill take picture tomorrow so someone can see what reaction happened by this course of action.
