New to the game, have 6 plants which I grew from clones, started flowering at 36inches. I'm using bio bloom, top max.
As it's my first time it's great seeing the bud develop but i'm loosing so much leafs, some yellow fans, some dry crunchy and some shrinking shriveled up ones. 3 weeks into flower is this the norm?
BTW I'm using 2 600s and rhino filter.
Help a bruva out!
pls checck pics.

Old age my friend. Thats just what they do sometimes. You still have plenty of green growth on the plant. If it continues then you may have a problem. I think its just the plants way of redirecting its energy to the flowering buds. :blsmoke:

They look pretty good, so you don't have to worry. Fan leaves always die off during bloom, especially the lower one that don't get much light. When you're plant starts turning yellow(N deficient) and the fan leaves start falling off, then you're getting a problem. No worries man, from the pics they look great. :)

If your leaf tips start turning brown, that's normally the first sign that you are borderline overfert. Then the fan leaves will get dark green, and it just gets worse from there. With overwatering, the plant will droop alot, and generally grow slowly. Sounds like your plants are really sucking up the water, so you shouldn't have much of a problem, but you still should skip a day here and there(every other day would be perfect, if possible) if you can get away with them not overdrying. They will start to droop when they get overdry too, so that'll let you know you went too far. Luckily, after you water them they will perk right back up in an hour or so, as long as you didn't let them get dried to a crisp.LOL

^I wasn't saying that those suggestions would stop those leaves from dying, i was just adding some facts to consider. Those leaves will keep dying reguardless of your watering or feeding, because it's a normal process towards the end of the plants lifecycle. Seriously man, they look really good. :)
