Lowers leafs falling

[Davy Jones]

The plant is doing just fine, about 30 days into 12/12. Due to a little heat problem I had she was a little slow in showing buds (it was 100degs on a regular basis, now I have installed a window a/c unit & its stable at 86degs) well the bud development is now exploding & I'm pretty damn stoked about it. I topped & fimmed it real nice during veg, now its 4 main branches are full of bud development & are about to be overcome with weight...ha ha, I love it.

So now whats happening is I'm noticing some big lower leaf's are turning & twisting, then a couple days later they will be dead. Its still a very thick plant with much inner growth, she's pretty thick, in fact when she started budding I had to tie the main branches down a little to let some light penetrate through the middle of the plant.

Sorry for all that, I just wanted to know if its normal to lose some leafs during the flowering stage. & if so, should I just let them fall or pull them?

any pics man?

losing lower leaves can be totally normal during flower. The turning and twisting you describe tells me that it;s not normal late flower "N def". Hard to tell w/o pics.

glad the heat issues are solved, and the buds are coming in!

Hey thanks man,

I will be posting pics of this plant later this evening. Yeah the heat issue just about drove me crazy, even though she seemed to be ok...once I found out she would have a hard time budding, & once it did I heard due to the heat the buds would not be very dense, kinda airy & fluffy...that didnt sound too good. I installed the window unit & was able to remove about a half dozen fans, heck I might be able to bring the 1000w bulb back into the grow room. The a/c unit is only on about 50% capacity, & still bringing 100degs down to 84/86degs, so I got a real good feeling about this now.

You have been a great help, I owe you some rep's...here's one to start catching up lol.
