2 weeks left , severe yellowing , should I add nutes ?

[Peacefullbuddah]

I'm currently growing some LR2's . They should be exactly 2 weeks away from harvest . About a week ago , they started to yellow very bad (one of them is completely yellow aside from the actual buds ) . A couple of days ago some of the leaves started to get brown spots , and after that they started curling and dying very fast .

At the rate that some of them are yellowing and having leaves fall off , they will probably be without any fan leaves by next week . So should I add some nutes this weekend , and then flush next week (1 week before harvest) ?

I really don't want to harvest early , so I'm just trying to figure out if one more dose of nutes will be necessary to get them through to harvest .


Thanks for your help .

P.S. Does anyone have any idea what these brown spots are ? A couple of days after the spots appear , the leaves curl upwards , dry , and then fall off .

With two weeks from harvest, leaves will naturally start to yellow and die off. You should start flushing now to get rid of all nutes.

I just wasn't sure if they were suppose to be yellowing as bad as they are . I'll take your advice though and start flushing this weekend . Should I use any molasses over the next 2 weeks before harvest ?

Edit : Thanks for your response .

Hmm I am not sure if they use molasses the last week. Leap frog has a sticky on that. Check it out to see what he says about it.

Ok so use molasses for the second to last week , and then flush the last week . I think I'll use a combination of your and SmknVTEC's advice ... I'll start flushing this weekend , then do 1 watering with molasses this upcoming week , and then just flush with distilled water for the final week . Thanks for the advice .

Id let it dry out for a few days too...it helps start the cure and the buds put on a little more trics trying to retain thier moisture with a coating

[Peacefullbuddah]

^^^ So I should let it dry out for a couple of days before I harvest ? Harvest with dry soil ?

No those are actually pics of my first grow , which was bagseed under 80watts of fluoro ... yeah I yeilded about 10 grams from 5 plants .

Now I am growing Lowryder #2 under a 400watt HPS , and this is my 3rd grow . Here's a link to my journal -- http://forum.grasscity.com/indoor-gr...-hps-pics.html .

I haven't updated the pics for a few days , but if you look at the second to last set of pics on there you will see some of what I was concerned about .
