Thanks for that diagnostic pic ocalli.That may be usefull to me. I do find it interesting. I was growing algae for an aquarium filtration project. The algae shows similar pigmentation changes when there is N deficiency and overabundance conditions.

really thats intresting fact that is

thanks ocalli was thinking that myself man but i think they have got worse so il get more pics up later to show use

Looking a bit N deficient, probablt could use some additional magnesium also...and yes Ocalli it may be the 'norm' in these forums that plants begin yellowing half way or so through flower. But there is absolutely nothing 'natural' about. A healthy, happy plant should remain green with minimal foliage loss up until the day of harvest......

never hurts to flush could be salt build up i flush after every 4th feeding

mabe your right but ive had lots of reputable growers on here that have done it for years as they say but there pics and grows speak for themselfs but they and a number of them have all said the last 2-3 weeks leaves will yellow cause the plant does take stored nutrients in the leafs and sucks it out just like when ive done outdoor near the end the plant all of them would be getting yellow fan leafs that is one of the ways you can tell if its ready for harvest next to tric color etc but plz im always here to learn and help mabe you could explain your stance on this no yellowing leaves as i have seen and been told different cause i dont like helping people and not having the full skinny much appreciated look forward to your response

I think all plants do something like this when flowering cycle is introduced. You could give em a shot of nitro at the beginning of flowering, which would help with the yellowing, possible flushing may be needed as per salt builduo, or transplanting into a bigger container...just mt. 02

your plants are very bushy and may just be acclimating to less light.

A plant steadily yellowing and shedding of fan leaves is deficient, thats the only natural process going on. Those fan leaves that are yellowing and falling can no longer contribute to the plants growth. Now you keep those fans leaves green and healthy and they can offer the plant much more than just being cannibalized and dropped from the food chain of the plant. And more than likely if the plant is deficient enough in an element or two and is continually dropping leaves more than likely its deficient of many things. Not all elements are mobile within the plant. And even if there are other deficiencies they may not present themselves for easy detection. Growth process slows while the plant hustles to find the things it needs, moving what it can within itself. And as we all know MJ puts on the most bud weight in the final few weeks. Allowing you plants to slowly starve as they finish their life is only reducing your yield and quality.
I bet there are not many growers that think its normal for a plant to yellow and shed during flower have actually grow a plant healthy and lush until harvest.
But I am certain the growers keeping their plants healthy and lush until harvest have grown plants following the so called 'natural and normal' yellowing shedding method. If you want to get the most out of your plants keep em green and lush until harvest.

wonder whatever happened to J smoke???
