Or bleaching "My 2 cents" if Ur lights are tooclose ..Ive senn that willLeds ..Usually means those buds About to.color up too ..

Good Luck .thats a Monster !!!
 
thanks swampman you think that vipar 300 watt led would be enough to bleach her,i got it 8 inchs from top,maybe move it ta 12,
 
Don't think that's bleaching, I had my LED as close as 4-6" during last few weeks of flowering and never had any bleaching. Probably more likely a deficiency.
 
Hmmm... I really don't know. I keep my LED a bit further away around 12" but when I look at them it seems like the pale is just not on the bits closest to the light. If I had to say I think I would go with Hansbricks and a deficiency. But like I said I don't know.
I'm subbed now so hope to find out!
Peace and happy growing, looking forward to you solving it!

Howdy dude,

It looks to be and is the perfect age to be suffering a calcium deficiency. Has she been fed any Cal/Mag supplements recently??

:Sharing One:
 
:tiphat: Faded'- yellowing at the top part of the plant/new growth, without spotting, off color patches, no tip/margin browning,... this sure looks like N defc., just like you were thinking; it's not severe, yet! she needs something with the N number that's the highest, and foliar spray will be the fastest way to get it to her... I don't know what's in Boomerang, but OS and BB don't have the goods for this job... Nitrogen is always important to the plant, regardless of it's growth stage; N is needed for many things besides just growth,... You've feed her well on bloom stuff, so I'd go foliar followed by a soil drench a bit later (don't want to over-cook the soil with nutes); do you have a wetting agent, or water spreader? This helps immensely with absorption, by spreading what you spray out in a nice even coat, instead of beading up.... more surface area covered=more nutes absorbed! :thumbs: Spray accurately, top and bottom surfaces, and try to not soak the buds themselves,...I know it's a pain, but this will help avoid any potential mold issues,... I assume you're indoors? Do this during lights on, but pull her out of the direct light when spraying, and let her sit away from it while it soaks in! She's a nice stout plant otherwise.... :grin:

Maybe i missed it but i didnt see anyone ask this...are you feeding at full strength? I see you listed how much of what you mixed but is that the manufacturers mix ratio for full strength? Simply put if you have a complete system you should be feeding at full strength right now.
 
Make sure you are checking your ph before you think she is hungry. at first glance though, i'm with Waira and say homegirl is hungry for N. Check that ph first though to make sure you aren't locking anything out of your plant now or in the future. Otherwise, great structure and looking good!
