Im a newbie at this, this is my second grow.
400 watt hps and a 250 MH for vegging and two 400 watt hps for flower. Problem that i cant solve is that in late vegging my plants begin to turn yellow starting at the lower fan leaves and curl up. They drop off as quick as i can pick them up.

I've been using earth juice grow which is 2-1-1 for the first batch and for the last i have been cycling earth juice grow and alaska fish emulsion which is 5-1-1 every other week for vegging, and alaska morbloom 0-10-10 for flowering.

I water everyday as the soil feels dry and fertilize once a week- Im using fox farm planting mix and in two plants i also added perilite.
What is going on? Am i doing wrong? Why yellowing leaves? They are all falling off again on 3 different plants?
Could they be root bound?
My plants are 2 1/2 to 3 feet tall in 3 gallon pots?
I tried flushing with no effect?
PH is 7.2
they are always perfectly healthy til bout 2 feet tall in vegging. I have other pretties started and i dont wanna fail with them too:( Sad stnr

we are stoners, if there is no pictures, we proboably wont read what is above, I know i didnt. Goodluck.
 
Try re potting in a larger pot and stop watering every day,that looks like a pretty tall plant there and I usually go by 1 gallon of soil to every foot of plant but since you have been watering so much you might have monster roots just give it a try what can it hurt?:peace:
 
do you adjust the pH for the fish fert? It is very acidic and could be causing lockout of other nutrients. In what proportions do you add the fish fert?
 
I use one tblspoon per gallon of fish fert once a week. I just purchased a ph tester and it appears to be 7.2 which i believe is good. I am also transplanting to bigger pots-5 gal. Looks like a huge root system.
Could feeding them a 2-1-1 fertilizer once a week be too little nitrogen? Has anyone had success using such a light fertilizer? I have heard people using stuff like 35-20-20
