hello we've just entered into 4 weeks and you can see we are having some problems. our ph is fine, temp is good in the room. we're feeding general hydroponics flora nova bloom 4-8-7 every other watering and we giver them 2 cc's when we water. and we also give them sensi cal mg mix micro nutes every watering. here are some pictures.

Yellowing leafs are common in Flower you have nothing to worrie about, and if i were you i would use two part bloom and kick the micro, but it could be nute burn also, but its normal for there to be yellow leafs when its getting near the end...

Yeah mate i think they are lookin good, use a 2 part solution of bloom, or just one you proboly have a fairly good idea hey? but im pretty sure micro is mostly for seedlings and vegs..... so use bloom nutrients and you're buds will kick in , here are some other tips, 1-2 weeks before harvest cut out ur nutrients and feed water, and then 2 days before you decide to harvest... turn you're lights off... it will give you more potient buds :)

awesome. ive been reading that all over the forums too. so cutting the lights off will really make them secrete more resin? b/c they are "dying" ?

That's not quite right. Giving the plants 48 hours of darkness just before harvest may make the buds ripen up faster, than with regular light schedule, but it will not increase potency.

I have tried the method a couple of times, and prefer to give my plants as much light as possible while still maintaining flowering. And I harvest my plants at the end of their day, when THC levels are highest, by putting them outside in the sun for several hours.

They thank me by sparkling like Dom Perignon. :mrgreen:

well not everyone is so lucky to be able to move the plants to a yard, hack most could move them there even if they have a yard:cry:

Looks like MG deficiency to me - common at that stage in flowering. How are your lights off temperatures? That can lock out MG if the temps drop too low. You might want to consider giving it an MG boost next watering, tablespoon of epsom salts per 5 litres of water.

Other than that, nice looking plant :)

well thank you. they have come a long way since the beggining. i think our temps at night is high 60's to low 70's. is this ok? and also, i quit using the micro nutes and the burn spots have stopped spreading. how bad do you think the plants have been stressed from over feeding?
