Think she's dying?

Over a week ago a few branches hermed on me. I cut off the ball infested branches (dumb I know) Figured the whole plant would herm. I'e kept a very close eye on her/it and no new little nut sacks have appeared! Bad thing is that a lot of leaves are yellowing and dying. But in the sun most of her leaves that are green and healthy were pointed up praying looking super happy. I'm sure my scissor work has at least stunted and slowed her but I don't know if she will make it? Opinions?

If it was dying all the leaves would start going right? Like at the same time? Seems like it happening to random leaves, but quite a few. I probably have removed 5- 10 shriveled leaves a day for the last week. And tho the buds are small and stunted they are healthy and don't look bad

That's a monster; nice plant! I wouldn't sweat the leaves and no, it doesn't look like it's dying. Not knowing your nutrients, you may want to feed her just a smidge. Based solely on what I see, she's right about at the peak intake time of her life, ie Flower Week 1-4, which means she's probably eating a lot of nutrients right now or at least trying to, otherwise, you have to remember shaded leaves or inner canopy leaves will die if they don't get enough light and you have a giant there so that is possible. Also, she's in flower and the general natural tendencies of cannabis is to basically slowly begin to die, so the yellowing leaves could also be attributed to that. BUT...she looks pretty darn good; don't knee jerk your actions at this point. Trim out the overly yellow and dead leaves to mitigate any disease and mold issues, drop her a little extra food if you think she's short on nutrients and you're most likely good to go.

All the dying started after i cut out All the hermed braches

They all are dying in the end ...no sense fretting now let it finish

Maybe you should have left that branch on and got a batch of S1 fem seeds.

Looks like it’s had a little more water than it might like, but it should also he flowering if it’s an outdoor plant. You should probably feed a bit more flower nutrients and water a bit less.

Can' risk pollination of the others.

This one gets same nutes as the others. She is flowering but much slower after cutting the hermed branches.

Then it’s probably simply that the roots are slightly to moderately too wet and leaching or otherwise preventing the uptake of P, K, and Mg. Let the root zone dry out. And, of course, remember many strains cannibalize leaves in late flower. The droop in some places says water saturation, though.

Its a big plant looking K def , try some extra K with woodash .

K is definitely involved, either way. You make a good point. It’s either the sheer size of the plant devouring nutrients or overwatering preventing P, K, and Mg from being taken up.

Yes it looks that way. Be careful with wood ash, only a light sprinkle in the root zone breakdown of 0-0-60 and sweetens the soil, sometimes too much. But it is a fast acting organic way of adding K.

I'e wanted to feed her but the rain has kept her soil moist. Now that the temps are down it takes the soil a few days to dry out. Funny you said that about the ash, I sprinkled a tiny bit on the girls a few days ago. Just hoped she snaps out of this soon. Also never seen leaves cannibalized so fast and shrivel up before totally dying. The dying leaves are sporting some unhealthy colors.
