If my plant was flowering I would assume it was just the fan leaves dying off but its just the bottom fan leaves, the first set of true leaves to be exact, has begun browning and yellowing and curling and dying. My girlfriend says its heat stress but its only the bottom leaves so im not sure.
I am using Fox Farms soil, I used bloom nutes a couple days ago to try and promote flowering, and she is under a 150w HPS. Temps dont ever get above 80.
Any thoughts? I can post pics after work tonight.

my thoughts would be she needs nutes if you havent feed her yet or she has a nute burn from too much nutes whats the ppm and ph on her?

If the chlorosis is moving upwards the plant from the bottom its usually due to PH. Is the yellowing of the leaves (chlorosis) coming from the Tips of the leaves and yellowing towards the part of the leaf closest to the plant? or does it look like its being sucked through the veins?

It's starting at the tips and moving in, its probably my ph. My tester was chewed to shit

Sounds good to me boss, is it soil or hydro? Is soil start adding dolomite lime in with the soil. It neutralizes the PH (brings it to 7), it'll help out for sure and a good source of cal/mg
