Week 7 flower all fan leaves are dying!!!ALL

I have an Autoflower Skittles in which was stunted the first three weeks of its life it's in week 7 flower buds look good trichomes look good but every single fan Leaf is wilting off not the sugar leaves but the fan leaves every one of them it did start by yellowing on the top of my plant and then I noticed all leaves under my canopy and on the bottom of my plant were completely Brown wilted curled completely falling off plant as soon as I touch them I'm afraid my plant is going to die before my buds are done and mature I know some people say that this is normal for leaves to Yellow but I just feel like all my leaves should not turn yellow and fall off and it literally is every single family I'm in a 4 by 4 closet with the maxsisun pb2000 water every 2-3 days when soil is dry with tap water that sets for 48 hours or longer with Fox Farm ocean forest soil and Fox Farm nutrients pH dialed in the 6.4 run off read 6.4 as well I was scared of nutrients in the beginning as I fed very slowly week 6 and 7 maybe a quarter of the strength recommended now I feel like I have some sort of deficiency but the plant was looking great right before flower

Any help is appreciated i fed light nutes on saturday then ph water Monday..it's already dry again!!! How long do u say i got left???? I'm afraid it will die before mature??????
 
I'm afraid to feed it as i don't want fertilizer there when i harvest and I'm not sure how much longer i got since it was stunted... i was told to flush with just ph water????

Dude feed your plant, feed her!!!
I feed up to harvest day!!!
Always have and always will nutrients in your soil will not effect the taste
of your bud!!! Studies have been done on this to prove this is bro science
it doesn't effect taste are harshness but it does effect yield and bud quality!!!
So do yourself a favor FEED HER PLEASE!!!

See again someone else told me not to pluck the leaves off that are dying let the plant take every bit of nutrients that can and let the leaves fall off themselves because if I take the dying leaves off it's just going to pull nutrients from another leaf
Leaves don't pull from other leaves, the bud can do this from the leaves but it isn't that simple, but that's another thread...
 
I didn't mean that i was told to not pull dying leaves cause the buds would just get it from another leaf...short story let it take it all i was told...is it ok to defoliate

Ur deficient. Plants need most food while developing flowers.
Pull the dead leaves and let the plant dry a bit until the leaves start praising your light.

Your watering timing seems to be good.

A simple solution:

Add more of your FF soil to the top of the pot and water it in next time.

A more in depth solution:

Feed it a little bit of water to moisten the medium and then feed a little of your normal strength but not until runoff.
Wait maybe hour. Feed but raise your feed to FULL strength. The next watering a water feed. The next watering a half strength feed.

I would maintain half strength feed until the plant looked healthy and ripening - and then slowly dilute that mixture into my harvest.

This solution is just a guess and what I would do if I was looking at that plant in my hands.

This is what an autoflower looks like in week 5.

I've finished worse plants than yours. Listen to @Romeo7701 and you got this.

For what it's worth, with bad leaves, I only remove them when I feel they've been stripped (crispy,crunchy, etc) so I can monitor the plant better, but, I grow in coco so things happen much faster, both good and bad.

While many people feed up until harvest this is highly dependent on what kind of nutrients you are using.

I will not smoke any growers flower that has fed up until harvest day. That is just my personal experience.
I must see their leaves and also their ashes will tell the tale of their habits

My personal experience says maybe you know some people who don't dry and cure properly.

I keep seeing dumb shit today. While i do believe ash color means nothing, mine is plenty white and i feed in coco up till 1 or 2 days before i cut. Seems like you are just another guy that believes in the myths that try to make one person an elitist with some unicorn magical weed cause you do it the only/"right" way. You've definitely not smoked the best weed if you discredit half of it out there for zero reason but fairy tales.20201225_133004.jpg

You're in Coco. Like I said in my first post it's highly dependent on your nutrient source i.e. also ur medium.

Got any flower pics, big man?
