Will my babies make it?

Hey fellow growers! I have a couple of plants here that are I believe about 3-4 weeks in flower. I understand that towards harvest the leaves naturally yellow and mine are yellowing at a decent rate i suppose. My question is will my babies be okay in the end at the rate of yellowing that is going on?

I did a flush and have been feeding them with a little alfalfa tea for nitrogen. Which doesn't seem to be working. So I will flush them right now. Should I even bother with nutes since it's about a month in flower?

only 3-4 weeks into flower by the looks fo them id say your lacking something somewhere A soil test kit would tell you for sure and make your life easier or you can just give her some nutes like everyone says and go from there

We also use molasses to sweeten and enrich Alfalfa meal teas. Our standard recipe for this use is:
4 gallons of water
1 cup of fine ground alfalfa meal
1 TBSP blackstrap or sugar beet molasses
After a 24 hour brew, this 100% plant-based fertilizer is ready for application. Alfalfa is a great organic plant food, with many benefits above and beyond just the N–P-K it can contribute to a soil mix or tea. We do plan to cover Alfalfa and it’s many uses in greater detail soon in yet another thread. We prefer to mix our alfalfa meal directly into the tea, but many gardeners use the stocking"tea bag"method with great effectiveness, both work well, it’s really just a matter of personal preference.

The alfalfa tea recipe we described can be used as a soil drench, and also as a foliar feed. And foliar feeding is the final use of molasses we’d like to detail. Foliar feeding, for the unfamiliar, is simply the art of using fine mist sprays as a way to get nutrients directly to the plant through the minute pores a plant"breathes"through. It is by far the quickest and most effective way to correct nutrient deficiencies, and can be an important part of any gardener’s toolbox.

Keep in mind that Blood Meal use outdoors can result in possible unwanted junk foragers (raccoons, skunks), but can act as a mild scent repellant of mammalian foragers.

You want to increase the available nitrogen to the plant, at the same time as providing other basic mobile and immobile nutrients.
