Not flowering

I feel I can give you a bit of advice from all the research I've been doing. It is completely normal for these had girls to show signs of yellowing and for yellowing to occur all over the stock ( end of harvest time ) , the reason for this is there sucking the nutrients out of the leaves creating a yellow leaf once all nutrients have been sucked.
What?

Not even going to go there.

Not sure about normal, but my younger plant flowered before my older one in the same conditions. Sometimes it's just genetics, I think.
What would my best course of action be? The one still flowering will need another 2 weeks I'm guessing so just leave my other plants in the tent for another 2 weeks with it? I don't really have any other place to grow it separately because I use my grow tent to hang dry my plants.

So your telling me a plant exhibits no yellowing while that far into flowering? I'm not rude or disrespectful but I'm going to challenge you on what is there not to go there about. Yellowing of leaves and shift of the darker bronzing is due to the leaf drying out after it's been sucked of the nutrients ( if flowering was fresh I'd have to say it's a deficiency or error in soil ). Other chances of yellowing occur from nitrogen toxicity or deficiency. But those are for earlier stages of plant life later on a deficiency is expected. The main reason why I Implied his plants looked normal was because he is almost done and ready for harvest. I've had quite the messages from well known growers and have asked my fair share of questions to update my knowledge. I'm no where near pro, but I still can provide a hell of a plant.

Alot of people feed their plants and the fans are still green at chop ..... leaves yellow because the plant is starving or they are burned off from too strong a feed..... technically flower is not the end of a plants life cycle .... if the majority of the swelling goes on with auto's during the last couple weeks .... it makes zero sense to starve them then

I'm planning on only doing a one week "flush" with Flawless Finish from AN. Should clear up the harshness but still provides Mag and Sulfur.

I'm using fully organic nutrients so I thought salt buildup can't occur. Am I wrong about that?
salts are found in nature .... just tossing that out there ... If you are feeding it ,it might be helpful to run some straight water through it to help remove any unneeded ferts

I was waiting for him to tell me he flushed his plants too.
Well put.

Its hard to flush auto's since the time isnt set in stone .... you could let it finish then feed it just water if you felt the need to leech whatever is left over .... to each their own i guess

I cut the top bud off and the top half of the bud is yellowish but the bottom half is green and healthy that the light wasn't hitting. Is it from the lights, heat, or overfertilizing? Im using led lights 16" above canopy, 80 degrees and 50% humidity. And I'm almost 100% sure it's not mold. image.jpgimage.jpg

I almost dropped my iPad when I seen them buds. Very nice job. What was your pull off one plant. And how was the smell and taste. I'm looking for an attention grabber. I don't smake but I do grow to trade.
