mine usually fade...i think its more about the plant aging than actually depleting the nutrients in the soil...

thats just my take on it though..

i can chop a yellowed out plant @ 9 weeks, repot a clone the same day, and it will grow lush and green until the last week or two of flower...then I rinse and repeat. they always seem to fade, yet there never seems to be a lack of nutrients. i blame senescence...

i enjoy seeing fall colors in my plants...all green to the end is boring LOL

My soil is the same for all plants. The plants do as they wish. Some fade and some don't as much. I have said the same thing before to other gardeners that would say my leaves were too green towards the end of the flower.

yeah..some plants yellow way more than others. i don't mess w/ it...the plant is in control...always and forever.

check out how many threads there are about yellowing @ 6 weeks lol. "oh no my fan leaves are starting to die off at week 6....".

i'm at week 3 currently and my ladies have already started to drop a lot of their lower interior leaves which aren't getting enough light. no need for stressful "defoliation" pruning techniques lol...the lady will do it herself. you don't just rip the clothes off a girl, you wait until she takes them off herself...slowly.....lol

I'm glad this was brought up because I'm currently 8-9 weeks in and the buds are looking almost ripe, but only one plant has somewhat yellowing leaves...the rest are lush. I thought I should wait til the leaves started to yellow and curl, but it seems I need to pay more attention to the flower than the leaf...makes sense, lol.

funny you guys mention "the one" and blue moon rocks...

I have 3 TO x BMR Bx1 in flower right now :mrgreen: they're starting to smell really nice at just over 3 weeks

DSCN1253.jpg

starting to get a few crispy leaves...think I may have overdone it w/ the TM-7 :eyesmoke: need to make sure I level out my tablespoons instead of heaping them......

most of the plants are getting a few crispy leaves..hoping they don't progress too far...damn BioAg stuff is potent!!!!

TM-7 burns planta like Subs Super Soil haha. I used too much as stated before and killed all my God's Gifts in mid flower. Typically my teas or nute solutions are concentrated and diluted down but I'm careful on my measurements to start with especially that stuff. Seems you prob learned your lesson and lucky it wasn't like mine where the plant went jurassic that not flush in the world could save like coot mentioned. It looked like a weed someone sprayed roundup on literally. Be careful with TM-7 everyone and use what the directions state. Maybe even start at the lowest recommendation.

Actually you really wanna pay attention to the trichomes.. depending on the type of high you want. Leave some clear for more speedy, head high. Same with cloudy depending on the strain will depend on the high. More amber ones will lead to a more couch lock feeling type high with the more amber you have. either way you wanna let the thricomes tell you when there done.

Arhh I found spider mites :( !!!

I don't have any neem oil and don't want to go buy a poison from a garden store.

Right now i'm simmering some dry chili, garlic & nutmeg with water.... Any of you knowledgeable folks here want to guess if this concoction will help or not or want to throw me some suggestions?

pure spray green works really well on spidermites.. its organic and omri listed too

bring down temps. spidermites are attracted to heat. thats why they hang out at the top of a plant..

There is a cilantro recipe somewhere in this thread for that. Spinosad like Capt Jacks start with that every 3 days. Peppermint, lavender dr bronners soap.

very cheap solution is habaneros pepper my friend,

use a garlic crusher and crush everything (with the seeds) , place in a pot of water, bring the water to an almost boil and let simmer for 20 minutes. I think you dont want it to boil or not for too long because it will reduce it's effectiveness. Strain, and dilute with water (not sure of the ratio anymore but I dont think you can really harm the plants so if the infestation is bad go stronger than weaker ...)

Mohican dish soap has actually been found to be bad for plants, why a lot gardeners stop using it on vveggies outdoors. As well as it can kill good microbes
