Any ideas would be greatly appreciated... only my 2nd grow.. and all 3 plants are having the same issue... could it be the water?

Check the roots to see if they are ready to transplant. What size pots are those btw?

Those. Are half gallon pots I actually transplanted from cups into those the beginning of the week ... So I doubt that it has too do with the roots being bound or anything... Transplanted them last Sunday.... And I fed them Thursday

my plants always lose those single blade leaves at some point. as long as it doesnt happen to other leaves, and new growth continues in fine, everything will be good.
worst case, they can take a lil extra Nitrogen
Now how does one go about adding "a little extra nitrogen"?

I think it's just a matter of getting on your nute schdule at full strength, the Nova stuff is fine. They look beautiful & about ready for flowering anyway. Old plants can be problematic for new growers....just a thought.

>.< It's not rootbound! The size of the container is dwarfing the plants. Just a slight lack of N.

what type of soil are you using? i use ffof and dont have to really use anything for at least a month and have no problems with yellow leaves till they go to 12/12. those pots are kinda small id put them into a 5 gallon container you will get more buds then the amount of money and extra soil think about it do the math. plus once you buy the 5gallon pots you can always reuse them.

Same situation on my plant.To lowest two leaves are yellow too, already from 3rd week of veg, now im in 5 week of veg and she is doing just great, so i dont think this is a big issue. Maybe im wrong. I dont recomend fertilizing such a young plant if this wont get worse ( that means that the other leaves stay nice green). If not give here a 1/3 of a dose.

bro your lower leaves are going to turn yellow and fall off around that time.you need cal/mag but not until you go 12/12.buy yourself some mg organic bone and blood meal for p and n and use as directed and grab some cal/mag for your 12/12 look up this chart it have leaves on it with different defs and itll show you whats wrong with your plant and the problems are labeled under the leaf.if your leaf look like that then thats the problem....the info i gave u will keep u good thru your grow other than that your plants looks good.give em another week to transplant them

the blood meal is for the nitro def you have going on use that with the bone meal but more blood meal than bone because the plant dont need too much p during veg and it needs more nitro during veg then when you switch to 12/12 then you switch the bone and blood meal around and dont forget to get some of this

Am I missing something? Unless you're eating the bonemeal, you can't contract mad cow disease. And there's bonemeal that comes from animals other than cows.
