lets play name that deficiency...+rep

Honestly they dont look that bad, I mean I realize they're yellow but happens alot last few weeks of flower, some sooner and more signifigant, but overall they plant looks healthy, IMO. I would just continue on with your tiger bloom before flush, Im not that good with diagnosing but Ive had perfectly good plants look similar in my grows and worked out fine. Continue checking, maybe someone else has a better explanation but I wouldnt be that worried, wish you all the best, those buds look like there comin along good...take care, peace

i agree,the bud production seems pefectly healthy..but ive read alot about keeping the plant green and happy all the way throgh to harvest for maximum yield. thanks for the help!

its notrogen def. my guess is you switched to a bloom nute? most bloom nutes lack enough nitrogen to keep your leaves green. my suggestion is to work your way into the bloom nute gradually. I assume you switched nutes when you went into bloom? and thats right when your leaves turned yellow?

hope this helps

yea your absolutly right,only once i relized i fuckd up by not easing them in,i began to dose them lightly with the grow big along wit the tigerbloom. and did notice any particulary new healthy growth,infact it seemd to have gotten worse over a week or two's time,and that was like feeding every other watering with 1/2 tsp grow big and 1 tsp tigerbloom.

Hey Buddy, so your plants have only gotten worse since your last thread on these problem plants, eh?

Have you continued to feed with veg nutes and calmag? If so, how long? Along with your N deficiency I do see some mag defs in pics 3 and 4 from the OP too. The way the leaves appear to be 'closing' and making a 'V' shape is a clear indicator they need magnesium. But more importantly keep adding N!!

also the upper leaves near the main budsited on the LA woman are beginning to turn a dark color,a bronze purplish color. some starting from the margin tips,and others starting from the veins

thanks for helping out,i have been continuing feeding with grow big for N. small doeses of cal-mag also,and some tiger bloom like 1-2 tsp per gallon. ive tried the grow big at the full recomended stength i cant give them more than the recomended 1tsp per gallon can i?

Do you have any new pics?

You can give them as much as they take until they burn. With any given plant that could be less or more than the recommended dose. It's only a guide, really. If you are sure you are not nute burning then you could increase your doses of grow big only if you are comfortable. Myself, I would increase the dose and observe. If no burn or improvment, then increase again. It would probably be a good idea to continue the tiger bloom as well to keep the PK up.

Good Luck Bud

So if the pics are only three days old and from your original thread a couple of days ago, your change in nutes etc. may not have shown in the plants yet. I'd continue what you are doing and wait a couple more days IMO.

nice,thanks for all the advice man. im going to feel it out some more, and like you said..observe. i may also try and get them into containers that are a bit larger. thanks dude

so i thought i had a root or contianer issue,so i pulled them out,insopected them,and put them into slightly bigger containers..and it didnt do anything, the leaves just look worse. i know im almost in my 6th week of flower,but can some one tell me what ther trying to say with the curled up and dried brown leaf tips?? they start to yollow then tips brown then begin to really curl the up and back,till eventualy the whole leaf dries up and dies. can any one tell me what this idicates??

How long ago did you replant into bigger containers? Has it been a few days yet? And you still don't notice any improvement/ LACK of further deterioration? Im in the exact same boat as you, check my journal, and a fellow grower suggested that it was sign of rootbound if increased levels of nitrogen do nothing for the problem. Im sorry to hear that replanting did nothing for you since that is what I am preparing to do. I wonder if anyone could enlighten us on wether rootbound plants (if thats what yours are indeed suffering from) can rebound back to normal this late into flowering and if we should expect to see yellowed leaves revert back to greener shades?

yea its been a few days now,but i didnt really fix anything cause the new containers are practicly the same size. also im not sure if mine were totaly rootbound.. i know that the rootball was so tight and compact that no water wasnt soeaking up into the entire rootball. i also think ive come to the conclusion that my leaf issue is infact heat and/or moisture stress..but reguardless im getting some real mice bud growth. and just about all the fan leaves have either died off natuarly or were on there way and i plucked them,so the trainwreck is the only one with a nice amount of fan leaves,that im sure will eventualy follow the others' path and drop all its big lower leaves. but im sure if u transplant into containers that are a nice size larger than the ones before them & add a few drops of superthrive you should be back on track. good luck,thanks for your inquiry

The eagle claw leaf leaf shape makes me think its moisture stress also but whoever mentioned gradually phasing into your bloom nutes is absolutely correct. My Jack Herer grow last year looked identical to your current grow.
This year I had a better understanding of this strains needs and have much better results. I watered less often, but with more nutes and slowly transitioned into bloom. My yield looks like it may double per plant because of these changes.

Good luck and I hope you get it dialed in.

were these the only leaves you have that are like that? how big are the plants? for me I always wind up losing some leaves...if these are the only ones you have lost then I think you are ok...but if you keep losing them or you have lost alot you might have a problem...
