hi guys n gals just a quickie question when your autos start flowering and the bottom fan leafs start to yellow and die is it best to leave them on till they fall off or remove them thanks people really appreciated
 
I let mine on until they start to wilt a little bit and come off without much effort.
 
Leave them till they are totally dead. As long as they have some green they will still feed the plant. At this point you shouldn't be loosing leaves. Post up a pic of the plant so we can see what's going on. You may have a pH issue or a deficiency that is causing the leaves to yellow.

will get a pic up shortly mate just had a look in this morning to give them a water and noticed the bottom leafs are yellow and drooping and starting to die actually its going half way up but the bud leafs are nice and green its just the big old fan leafs
 
Hey glasgow :smokebuds:

Looks like you've got some issues there, bud. Do you know what your soil pH is?
 
thing is ive never done ph i got to get my self a tester ive upped the nutes to more bio grow as i had cut it down and put the bloom up
 
but i thought when flowering the bottom leaves start to yellow and die anyway
 
The yellowing you're talking about happens at the very end of flowering right before you're ready to harvest, and it is an even yellowing that occurs. Your ladies are too young for that yellowing to be starting now. Some of your big fan leaves have necrosis. It looks like your lady is suffering from pH lockout mate. I don't think it's the result of nute burn from overfeeding because I don't see any clawing on your new growth.

Without knowing what the pH of your soil is or the pH of the waterings you've been giving her, it will be almost impossible to give you a good recommendation. If possible, I would snag yourself a pH meter to test your water ASAP, as well as a soil pH probe if the funds are available. You can get by with just a pH meter for testing water for now. Hanna is a good brand name that lots of people use on the site. If you're looking into a soil pH probe, I would recommend the Control Wizard Accurate 8.

Don't waste money on any of the cheap pH meters - you get what you pay for. I went through three cheap Rapitest soil pH meters before learning my lesson. They should be the two most important tools of your grow.
