Old Leaves Yellowing and falling off. Just found out it's a female!

Str8 Hoggin · #1 (**permalink**) 12-19-2008, 04:02 PM

Yesterday is the day I have been waiting for, for a long time. Found out that I have a Female in the bunch!!! Wooh. But, I have a problem, the older leaves on the bottom of the plant are turning a yellowish brown and falling off soon afterwards. I have used no nutes or anything like that, I think it might be a nitrogen diff.? PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I've got the same problem and I also believe its nitrogen deficiency, or perhaps a pH problem, but I would like to an experienced grower's opinion.

For sure. I absolutely agree.

What is ph of soil?
You guys are way late on adding you nutes. You should start adding nutes about 3 weeks into vegative state and then start with 1/4 strenth of what your using directs you to use. Slowly bringing the doses up.

yeah. I am using 2 100 watt CFL'S. 18/6. And to be honest, I just know that the soil is some shit that ol' girl used for the garden out back, which might of been a NOOBish mistake in my part.

p.s. the plants look nice, I'm just afraid that before harvest all of the leaves and shit will die before hand.

Try goin to your local pet store or w.e they should have accurate ph tester kits/meters. After that head to your local hydroponics store/ organic gardening store, and ask for Fox Farm Ocean Forest Soil, Fox Farm Grow Big/ Big Bloom(they should have ph testers there) I have read that its completly normal for the leaves to start yellowing before when thre starting to bud causing her too suck up alot of nutes, if there yellowing from bottom up should be alright,keep slowly adding in your nutes. try easing up on the water for now till ull ready to flush ur buds.

Defficency in the nitrogen department. The yellowing is cause by the plant feeding off its own lower sucker leaves, when no nutes are availabe the plant takes what there is out of lower sets of leaves but eventually left unfed all leaves will start yellowing.
