Chocolope Grow nearing the End. Have Questions..

Hey Everyone at RIU, I have been here in the past to learn somethings but gave up for awhile due to some circumstances. I am back and in need of some of that great help you all have had in the past. This time I'm sticking around, I'll be starting a grow journal in about 3-4 days on my new grow that is about to start with 8-10 (hopefully fingers crossed)arjans strawberry haze. So hopefully you can all help with that too, okay now that I'm done with my stoner rambling on to what this post is for.


I started some DNA Chocolope about September 20 - 23 I had them in veg state until about November 2 - 3. Which to make it easier that means about 1 month 1 week vegging.Now they have been in flowering for about 6 weeks. I had absolutely no problems with them throughout the process until about day 40 of flowering. They started having a yellowing of the leaves and also some browning which has now turned what i believe catastrophic. I thought it was a nute burn at first so I flushed them good and started a half nute schedule the next flowering and raised back to full after that. But the browning and yellowing has not stopped it has only gotten worse. Temp are good no lower then 68 during the night and no higher then 83 during the day, usual is about 76-80 humidity it usually around 45-50 and lowest is 35 highest is 65. I have 3 plants under a 400W superHPS with very sufficient air flow and all three are in 4 gallon containers. Anything I think of to fix them is wrong, I had thought it might be a mag def but I add cal mag (1tsp-1gallon) every watering, so that shouldn't be it. I just dont understand, and I know that its the end of their lives to where now I'm going to be flushing them next watering and I know they yellow at the end of their lives its just it started to early I think and it only has gotten worse I dont want these amazing smelling and amazingly sticky already plants to go down in their last few weeks of life. Help me out RIU let me know your ideas and thoughts.


I will have Pictures up at 5pm pacific standard time because that's when the lights go on. Only about an hour away. Thank you for reading and hopefully this can all be fixed for me.


EDIT:I now have added the pictures for you all to give me a better idea of what my problem is, if there is any. To me it seems like it is yellowing to much. Some pictures are taking with the lights off. I have added 10 pictures(tagged with 121) of them at day 40 ish of flowering and then i added 11(tagged with 12192011) of them today, which is only about 10 days after. it just doesnt seem right.

Yellowing is normal on flowering plants

They are taking up all the energy they can before the end of their life

Any leaves that has turned color will not turn back green no matter what you do ,

As long as the new growth is green then your good

But its hard to tell you anything for sure without pics my man

Also try to keep your humidity between 40 and 60 %

I like mine to be between 45 and 50 %

Alright see its what I thought but from all the research over the years Ive never known a plant to yellow&brown this much even though it is near the end. Just seems a bit to much. I will have pictures up soon. Cant wait to get into the act of blogging again it was so fun in the past. haha

and yea I keep my humidity at around 45-50 usually also. I have a temp humidity controller but i have never learned how to use it, its was such a waste of money but now im at RIU im sure within time ill learn how to use it (:

I'm growing one Chocolope outdoors, and I too got the browning and yellowing issue, but I don't really mind. I think it must be something related to the genetics...
What really impressed me is that it started flowering way too early. I live in the southern hemisphere, and it should have started right now, mid february, not early January...I think I'm at mid flowering time:

Gvie it a little veg nutes about ten percent or 15% of what you do for flowering. This should help. they like alot of N.
