New Grower Fan Leaves droopy during flowering? Help

[danknate]

Hello AFN, this is my first time posting but I've been viewing for a while. But I just had a quick question, I'm in around week 10 of my original amnesia auto. The results are amazing, it being my 2nd time. Though one of the plants started to show the fan leaves yellowing which is normal I'm assuming since its late in flowering? But also the fan leaves are starting to sag or 'droop' down. Any idea of what it could be ?

from those pics I cant really tell you what is wrong with any amount of certainty, but the most common causes of droopy leaves are overwatering and a ph problem.

If you can answer a few questions you can all of us to help you
What are you growing in? soil coco etc..
whats the ph of the medium?
Can you post a few pics of the whole plant so we can get a better look?

Sorry about that, here are better pictures :smokebuds:. And yes I'm using ffof mixed with multiple fertilizers made specifically for flowering...(the roots actually hit the bottom part of the pot which is where the fertilizers where concentrated before it hit flowering stage so my plants went through somewhat of a shock for a couple of days during its vegetative growth which eventually went away as the plant went into flowering and now they look amazing!) I'm not sure of the ph exactly because meter is cheap and does not give exact results but the meter does come up as around 6.

from what I can see it looks like a ph problem and that is confirmed by your ph reading of 6. the lower leaves look like they are fading because of age, which is fine, but the top sets look like they have a deficiency.
Ideally you would have a ph of 6.5
To correct this you need to use some lime, dolomite or garden lime it doesn't matter(available at all garden centres).

To use the lime you will need to break up the inch of soil
then sprinkle a teaspoon of lime over the soil
then water the lime into the soil

you should see the ph go up within a couple of days and she should be visibly healthier within a week.

If you still have issues after treating the soil pm me and I will see if I can help further.

Thanks for the advice! I actually watered her with a more stable ph water and the leaves came right back up! I'm not sure exactly what the deficiency could be though.

looks like an iron deficiency to me
