Fan leafs yellowing.

Skoad · Sep 24, 2009

First I want to say sorry. I know there are a trillion threads on this already but most I found similar to mine all had different causes.

I havnt had any problems until a few days ago. A bunch of the fan leaves started yellowing. I havnt changed anything in my schedule. My plants are on day 31 of flowering.

Will +rep for all help.

Day 31 is a little early for this to happen but its ok. The plant is telling you it just needs a little more food. Try upping the nutrients a litttle. it will slow this yellowing alot and in turn your plants will grow more and pack on more weight. They look very nice. your gonna have some real big buds there

Thanks for the reply.

Lots of people been telling me that (about bud size). In the latest pictures of your ladies thread people were flipping out about the size of my plants, which made me feel great haha.

Ive been giving full feeding of fox farm, but guess Ill give them 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 feeding.

Thanks again for the reply.

Yeh, your plants look good, man. The energy is going into the buds and not the water leaves. What is your feeding schedule? And do you ph your water?

That looks very much like magnesium deficiency. It has the classic look - yellowing with little brown spots. And it tends to show about mid flowering.

Use 1-2 teaspoon of Epsom salt per gallon of water during regular feedings. It should start to look better in about a week.

Good luck!

They each get a little over a half gallon every 2 days. BB is 15mL per gal and TB is 10mL/gal. My pH level is kinda low, but it has been at the same point throughout the grow. About 5.9

Ill have to pick some up that up tomorrow and give it a try. Thanks

It could be a mag def or a nitrogen def! If it is a magnesium deficiency you can treat that by getting some blackstrap molasses! Start out by giving it two tablespoons in a gallon of water and then the next time you water 1 tbsp and you should be good to go!
