maybe im just over concerned, but is the leaf yellowing (drying up/curling to) just part of the autoflower life cycle

aka does everything look normal?

day 57
 
Hi mate, What lights are you using, are you feeding? and how much? Water PH?
 
- 2 Gallon pots
-soil mix : 70% shultz organic potting soil, 30% perlite, epsom salt, bat guano, blood and bone meal
-grow from seed under a 2' T5 HO 4 lamp fixture (2 bulbs 6400K, 2 bulbs 3000K), one 18" T8 singline lamp 4100K
- no nutrients, nothing but filtered, airated, pH balanced water (6.0-6.5)
 
not the best set up but the girl looks extremey healthy up until now, im assuming it is due to the buds fattening up and using the energy from the leaves. just want a more knowledgeable opinion incase it doesnt look normal :)!
 
yeah she could be just eating her own leaves getting ready to finish as youve stopped feeding her,
what are the Pistils and Trichomes like?
 
pistils are about 15-20% orange/rust coloured, and i couldnt tell you about the trichomes, the highest magnification i currently have is 40X and i just cant make out the exact colour, theres lots of them if that helps :bong::D
 
Ok cheers, Its probably like you said, the plant is eating itself, some would still feed upto the last two weeks, but then again, preference of the grower is always the key.
I would get a good look at the trichomes tho if you can, i somwetimes take a picture of the bud close up with my phone cam then transfer that pic to pc, its loads clearer.
Give that a go but its a good indicator to what the plants doing.
If shes developing more then it sounds more like self cannibalisation and all is ok.
Hope all turns out ok mate, keep us posted.
:wiz:
 
will do! and appreciate the fast response, just need a little re-assurance that the death is normal i guess :peace: and yeah i was thinking about buying an inexpensive macro lense for my iphone, you can get some pretty decently priced one on ebay
 
My pleasure mate, happy growing and hope the results are bountiful! :smokebuds:
 
First, good shot on the quick help Nemesis. Not quite sure if that's what it is though. Could be...

Have you been checking the Ph of your runoff?
Does your mix contain lime?

6-6.5Ph is a pretty wide range and will give you lockout in soil. Check this out.

Much below 6.5 your Phosphorus, Calcium and Magnesium are locked out.
