New Grower Yellowing

[EvilMoney]

I have 3 autoflowers goin, 41 days in. I pretty much describe everything about my grow here> https://www.autoflower.org/f44/first-grow-*-cfl-lights-*-auto-pounder-*-big-buddha-sas-10972.html 1 of the only things I do not have yet is a PH soil tester/moisture meter, etc.. should have that monday or tuesday.. The yellowing seems to have picked up a lil. I havent given the plants any nutes since last saturday when I gave it half tspn of grow big, 4 days before that I gave them Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. Oh, and 4 days ago I added 2 inches of soil to the pots and gave them water to get some of the new soil nutes into the older soil.. Will prolly water again tomorrow, was gonna add all 3 nutes.. the yellowing is awful.. the flowering is wonderful... Not sure where its goin from here.. I am hoping for the best.... here are tonights pics..

PEACE!

:smokebuds:I always get some yellow leaves myself, and these are the bottom older lower leaves and this is normal.It does look like your low om nitrogen.Get back to us when you get your ph meter and we will go from there.

Most likely a pH related issue. I think when you get your tester you're going to find that it is off, causing a nutrient lockout resulting in the yellow leaves.

So, I took pics last night, also had to water, added nutes at about a 50% of what I should be just to try and play it safe.

I got my PH soil meter today.. UGGG! Soil PH is 4.0 in the bigger plant and 5.5 in both of the smaller plants..

Today it seems there is even more yellowing and its spreading to upper leaves, the flowers seem to have stopped growing..


pics from last night.. plant 3 is the bigger 1 which is a Big Bhudda Super Automatic Sativa, the other 2 are Auto Pounder

The low pH is locking out the nutrients, so feeding won't help. The yellowing will continue until you can get your pH up to an acceptable level, between 6.4 - 6.5. As a quick fix, get some hydrated lime. It is faster acting than dolomite, but must be used sparingly as too much can cause root damage. Mix 1 tablespoon per gallon of feed, wait 3-4 days, then check the pH again.

Greets again! Grrr plants look sicklier today.. Ordered some ph strips, PH Up and Down and Hydrated Lime.. All from different suppliers, hopefully Ill have them all very soon..
