I'd leave em. When they get ready to fall off u should be able to give them a light tug and they'll fall off.

this can also just be pure naturel sometimes when budding, which can be depending on the strain (mayb mainly the strain idk), im a newb but thats what ive herd and noticed from ppls pics. id leave them too, u would worry more about this in veg. u dont want to stress it as much in flowering

and like Khm916 said: if they are crunchy cut them off, i wonder myself if mayb to just cut off the yellow parts(speaking generally) but in ur case they look shiny and naturel, leave em.

the top halfs of the leaves look yellow and crunchy, but the bottom half of leave looks fine. I was thinking of just cutting off the bad half and not the entire leave. Then im kinda doing what both of you suggested.

The vein is still green. I haven't had that problem, but they suggested cal mag for it, because it's a magnesium deficiency.

cut the majority of the yellow off without taking off the whole leaf..the plant needs them during the final stages of budding after you stop giving nutes

It won't get better on its own. But good luck with your grow.

Google marijuana magnesium deficiency and look at the pictures that come up. Then google the same with nitrogen deficiency...that should give you your answer.

thnx, i just googled them and it does actually look more like magnesium deficiency. Right now im using ffof and the trio pack of fox farm nutes. so now i need to add more magnesium? Ive never done that. I guess my next step is how to add more magnesium lol. Im guessing theres something i can buy to add to the water. So should i, or should i not cut off the yellow lol srry and thanx

Leave the leafs on the damage has been done now but by takeing the of you will cause more damage back of the nutes and she will recover all though the yeild will be effected by the stress caused by the nute burn..........................tyke..................................

Except for sometimes when cloning, you should never need to trim leaves. All this does is leave an open wound. It's not going to hurt that plant at all if a leaf has a brown spot on it. Much of that yellow will go back to green when the plant gets proper nutrients. As for adding magnesium, that's what Cal mag is for.

thanks for all tips! Sorry for my ignorance, but is there anywhere local i can buy cal mag? i just googled it, and GNC poped up, and wal mart vitamins or something. i would feel weird going to GNC for plant needs lol. I'd like to buy some as soon as i can cause im just about to water the one plant that concerns me. Thnx again for all the help!
