hey evry1

this is one of my outdoor bagseed girls and she aint looking too good
her fans leaves are turning extremely yellow and falling off, this problem started at the bottom of the plant and is making its way up very quickly.

im hopin to correct it before all the fans are gone please help

pics show some nute burn on the tips but this happened a few weeks ago and shouldnt be a problem as i have flushed and toned down on the nutes

this girl is around 3 weeks into flower and is 70cm tall

thanks everyone

it is pretty normal....it needs nitrogen to be green and flower nutes have less nitrogen...I wouldn't worry....if it bugs you just remove it...

thanks for the reply cali

yeah i thought it must have something to do with N cos of the general paleness of the plant

would u suggest changing to a fertilizer with a higher N value, even mixing a small proportion of veg nutes in with the bloom nutes next feeding? or could this be a bad idea?

the yellowing doesnt seem to be affecting the new growth much, besides the plant being quite pale, so will the problem will mainly be confined to the large fan leaves ?

i am thinking of changing my nutes though, the bloom stage nutes dont really seem to work well for soil. i will post some pics of the percentages in a minute.

cheers

peace

ahhaha word word

im in aus though, and am a bit iffy about ordering such specific weed growing nutes and have them go through our customs, as they are really tough. and cost/time

i have access to hydro stores though, but am not sure which nutes would be the most pot-specific. the shop sells these brands which i got off their website:

Canna Vega/Flores

Dutch Fest

Dutch Master

MaximBud

i know alot of the brands on the site are australian made, but i selected a few that sounded the most chron related -would the 'Dutch" ones be more likely for weed ahha?

thanks mate

yea looks like more of a booster....im sure its time released thats why it lasts so long...I dont like those kind....the numbers to stay close to for veg are 7-4-10 npk...and for flower find one that is close to 4-8-7 npk....that way you can feed more often....the plants love it...

thanks for the advice cali,

i have just done some searching and found an aussie site that sells and ships
General hydroponics brand i believe, hope its the same as the US brand,
i assume if would have to be the same formula as the one available in the US

it doesnt have any pictures but its stated as "General Hydroponics Flora Bloom" and is a one part flower formula.

sound right?

link - Hydroponic Nutrients

i wana get this shit asap as i have a girl on hydro and am using previously shown nutes aswell, and she seems to be at less than her full potential right now....
