What's happening? bottom leaves dying - pics

dexorated · #1 (**permalink**) 04-03-2008, 01:32 AM

As you can see in the pics the top of the plant looks fine. The bottom leaves are burning up and dying though. It's in its second week of flower with big bloom every 3rd watering. transplanted 2 weeks ago right before flower.

Could be normal, can you give us a side shot?

I can't see anything wrong on your side views. They look healthy.

Look fine to me. When they get into flowering some of the older leaves at the very bottom of the plant are going to die off....its not big deal. Just make sure the dying leaves aren't progressing towards the top of the plant

alright well thanks everybody... i'm just worried because usually by the time my plants finish flowering just about every leaf has fallen off.

Dude, your leaves look very healthy. That's a nice thick canopy you've got going, which is why the bottom leaves are dying. They're not getting any light, so your plant is getting rid of the excess material. Completely normal.
