What's Happening To My Plant?

this is my first go at soil and i know that this is not correct but there is so many signs that it could be i thought i would throw this out there for the expert/experienced to see what you think
the leaves are curling down yellowing and dying at a surprising rate the new growth and buds look fine it has been in flower for 5 weeks its in a 3 gallon bucket im using foxfarm nutes and soil
any ideas?

nute burn. flush your soil. 2 gallons for every 1 gallon of container space.

is this a problem im gonna run into with my plant being in a 3 gallon pot with 2 months of veg time? is there anything i can do to stop this from happening again?

just dont give them too many nutes. use about 1/4 of what your nutes say to use.

she is showing signs of being rootbound is this creating/helping the problem? is it to late to transplant at this point?

are yu in flowering? if so how far along?

Hmm very similar to what I'm going through right now. Here's my thread. Although my girls are only one week in flowering, and no signs of actually burnt or dead tissue.

thx for the help too plus rep for ya

im 5 weeks into flower i knew i should have transplanted before but being my first go at soil so i really didnt know

dark leaf, thats pretty much a tell tale sign of nitrogen toxicity. meaning too much nitrogen.

so what does the downward curl mean ive seen all kinds of stuff about upward curl and side to side but not down

also 5 weeks in its a 10 week strain or so from what ive researched about it is there enough time to do anything

ehh, may do more harm than good. well i always get a downward curl after i water then they perk up again. may be a lil over watering

alright ill give her a good flush and halve my nutes and hope for the best i guess
thx

i am no expert but i have grown in soil alot.at five weeks into flowering your plants are blocking out most nitrogen and sucking up the phosphorus and magnesium ,that is why leaves turn yellow and die off.from what i see in the pics they look fine. as long as the buds and sweet leaf look good you should be fine.

nah, its because most flowering nuts have minimal nitrogen, and the buds are sucking the leaves yellow for energy, which nitrogen provides them with. you can have green leaves til the last week or two of flowering you so wish to have. im going to give mine nitrogen till about week 5. maybe 6.

the regiment i did cut the nitro for the first 2 weeks of flower then bring a lil back in for 2 weeks then cut til harvest the og kush loved it

and the buds and new growth look great nice green color sticking straight out its the older fan leaves that are dying off just seems fast to me cause the og kush didnt do this at all same room/regiment. only difference is i transplanted the og into a 10 gallon before flower not the herijuana

but the buds are fattening nicely now not really seeing slowed growth or stunting from it being rootbound

well that may be because they are different strains and they can react completely different to what you do to them and what you did to previous plants or strains
