Lol, so the number one answer on here is still FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH!!!
No one asked a question, just FLUSH!
Fuck me!
Anyhow, feel free to flush, if you like to guess. Just remember. The last 2weeks is where 25% of the bud weight comes from, fuck that up and you are sitting on 3oz vs 4oz.
We nee more info about your water, TDS, and PH.
It looks like a micro-nute def. Micro nutes usually show up at the tops of the plant. Where macro-nute def's show up from the bottom and work upwards. This could be caused by lock-out, ph imbalance, etc...
I would only flush if you know the roots are healthy, and can drain/dryo out the medium quickly. The last thing u want now is rot spreading into the main stem...
Good luck.

Basically what I was thinking, but since it looks like multiple deficiencies/lockouts, it's probably because of pH or too much of something rather than the lack of something.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's too low.

I've had a grow that had leaves looking similar to the ones pictured above and I found Fish Emulsion fixed the issue. A couple teaspoons while watering and it greened up quick! Hope this helps

The photo is not of the top cola it is one of the smaller side tops. The main cola has no signs at top only further down the plant. I have used full strength fox farm nutrients throughout with ocean forest. I have been feeding nothing but water and 1tsbn/gallon of molasses for the past 3 weeks. I was not letting the soil completely dry out and I feel that there was a surplus of nutrients that are now being used and causing problems since I have recently allowed to dry out completely. Ph is 6.5.

I flushed today with 10 gallons of water just to make sure and am going to wait and see.

i though molasses was good for micro nutes, am I wrong?

Churchhaze has the right outlook.
When you say your PH is 6.5, can you tell me where that number comes from? Is it the water that goes in? Is it a soil PH tester, or is it the run-off? The best way to test PH levels is to test the runoff water compared to the added water. So if you add water that is 6.5ph, but it comes out at 7.5, that would mean the PH at the roots is above 7.5.I know $150 dollars for a decent PH and TDS meter isn't cheap for a small grower, but you will get it back plus some in the first grow.

How do you maintain that eztra 25% ive just been using fox farm, and water, I would like to know that though :)
