Leaves turning yellow

I have a three month old plant, and I've recently moved it indoors. Now some of the bottom leaves are slowly turning yellow, drying out, and falling off. The leaves don't become brittle until they completely fall off. I'm stumped on what it might be, please help.

thanks
 
Some leaf death at bottom is normal..need pic and more info.. are you feeding.. yellow can be a N nitrogen def....
 
Yeah, it could be normal. You`d need a pic to be certain but some leaves dying off at the bottom of a 3 month old plant isn`t unusual.

Edit: I can`t see the pics.
 
Trying it again. Hopefully the pictures will be up this time....

I`m not sure if there`s a problem. The leaves up top look fine. Could you be over-watering it a bit since you moved it inside. That could cause some yellowing leaves. Just keep the soil damp, I have a tendency to over-water.
 
All right, I'll try to take the watering down a bit. Also, because I plan on starting the flowering cycle soon, how big of a container should I put it in?
 
the left looks like needs N..right wrinkled leafs over/under water.. I water once every 3-4 days......
 
Those plants are fine and are probably going to need some adjustment to the indoor environment. Lighting may be an issue at some point, what are you using??
 
Right now I'm using 2 70watt cfls. I plan getting one more, in addition to a terrarium light.
 
If the leaves continue to "yellow," buy a box of Epsom Salts. Dissolve one teaspoon of Epsom Salts into each one gallon of water ... and water your plants with that. Just do it one time, then check the results.

i had this problem and knew about the epson salt remedy(for mg defficiency).
but not being too sure about what dosage to give and if the plants really had a defect i just flushed them heavily with a good mineral water that had a good balance of ph and a heavy content of magnesium (next day they looked better).if you check the different kinds of bottled water it has all you need to know on the label and they are all different.
(i use bio-bizz.bloom and grow combined with mineral water).
and i only water/feed every 3rd day;-).i am nearly at 5 weeks flowering.
 
Right now the plant is like, 2 feet. How many lights do you think I should get? I wanted to get a HPS light, but due to room restrictions room for much more than CFLs. And how big should the pot be? The one I have now probably holds about a half gallon of soil.

Depending upon strain, the plant will double or triple in height during the first three weeks of the flowering cycle and stop growing after that.

You just need one light ... but make it a good one. You can use an HPS all the way through the grow, from vegging through flowering. During my progression as a grower, I've used a 250 HPS, a 430 HPS and now a 600 HPS. With every increase in light wattage, my yields have gone up dramatically.

When I started out as a soil grower, I used one-gallon, square pots, under the 250 HPS. I considered an average of 1/2 ounce per plant to be good. Now that I use the 600 HPS, I'm disappointed if I don't get 1.5 ounces + off of each plant.

After increasing the light from 250 watts, I increased my pot size as well. I finished up as a soil grower using two-gallon pots.

For the past five years, I've been growing in various hydro systems. I've ended up growing aero now ... and the growth in veg is amazing. Yield is way up too.

So far, it looks like she's doing better...I guess. A lot the sun leaves that grew from outdoors have really dried up, but the other leaves seem to be doing well. Here's some pictures.
