3.5 cups roughly
how strong are you mixing nutes ?
and honestly the feedings more than likely dont contain any cal mag

Lay Off those nutes Jtt. I highly doubt you have nitrogen deficiency. Stay away from mixing nutes. I would do a slow flush. That's what I call it. Ph your h20. Let your pot wick water with a bit of surfactant in it. Use a tiny bit of Epsom salts. Chemistry 101 like equals like. Salt breaks down salt then the surfactant to expel unwanted nutes. Soil Is alive. You are essentially having to keep both alive. That's why I like coco coir with a simple wick or ebb and grow.

your pots are loaded with nutes
i agree that PH'd water will remedy this you probably have a wicked salt build up
but after growing like 10+ of the AKR's the splotchy yellow green is cal mag
ya calmag is required IMO for alot of auto's i put a small amount in all my water that touches any plant over a few weeks old
like a half a teaspoon a gal of the stuff i use

i would just let the soil simmer
when you feed it really doesnt show for a day or 2 sometimes calmag takes a while to remedy
just feed it ph'd water until it straightens out then start bloom nutes after they flip
the darker green color shows that they are fed plenty
really just showing a over feed/ burn and the splotches from calmag epsom salt works but i have little experience with it
if you have actual calmag nutes then i would just feed calmag like half what the bottle calls for to a gallon every 3-5 days the damage wont repair but it wont get any worse

ok thanks alot for the help brother its truely appreciated it ive learnt lots from you since i signed up on this site i really appreciate it!
i have layed off the nutes the past 5 days only straight PH water except two days ago gave them 5 ml/ gallon of CAL-MAX which is a better version of CAL-MAG also added about 4 inches of pro mix soil to each pot just to top them off!
tonight im going to give the just straigh water again when do you suggest i start bud nutes again? or should i continue veg nutes one more feeding this is where im confuzed when is the proper time to switch over
ive heard people say they finish in the same time the manufacture company says it does than ive heard people say they finish when their ready im just curious on what to do cause their 37 days old today

so heres my questions

1. when do i switch do bud nutes how many more day would you wait?
2 or would you continue veg nutes?
3. or do a 50/50 of veg and bloom nutes my veg nutes are botanical pro grow and liquad karma, and my bloom nutes are botanical probloom liquad karma and monster bloom what would you do??
4 the yellow leaves on my plants is it ok to pick them off?
5 could my plants be yellowing cause the temp has been at 88 degrees steadily?

thankk everyone for the help and taking the time out to throw suggestions myway has really helped me learn alot of stuff for my first grow! im a electrician so if anyone needs help wiring anything or stuff like that id be truely to happy to help with that department thanks again guys

when they start to look hungry feed them :)
i start bloom nutes after the "stretch" which usually ends around 2 weeks after flower starts
just breath brother your plants are looking very nice

you could get away with one feeding a week of 1/4 - 1/2 str bloom from here on out
your better off slightly underfeeding then overfeeding when dealing with auto's :)
a burn will almost always set you back more then a slight under feed

your best bet is to research a few deficiency / burn charts then you will have an idea of what they are calling for by the color of the leaves or the way the plant is acting
