What are you using for IPM?

Agree. Every strain has slightly different needs. I'm running a couple plants right now that are eating up 7g (a big heaping teaspoon) of Maxibloom per gallon because 6.5g per gallon was showing the start of yellowing down below and it's 3rd or 4th week of flower. They're also drinking more than other plants. Sometimes you just have to work out what the plant is telling you.
Could it not be that you want a few yellow leaves?
if its using that nitrogen its growing well and is a sign everything is working with no excess ...much like fasting our bodies cannabilise unhealthy cells for fuel and wastes no energy digesting food ...same with watering and everything else ...balance
Im pretty sure its not bugs idk,i dont see any bugs at all.Those mites are usually black too,The spots are just spots,they dont move&they dont wipe off?Maybe a different form of mildew?
FoxFarm CoCo Coir/Soil mix.

Yes but do you want arnold buds or husain bolt buds.lots of feed lots of flower.energy in energy out.you get what you give.if it starves it grows up skinny if its fed it grows up obese
There are a few cóllage papers exploring this subject and they say its better to have her green all the time no flushing and no playing its winter lets yellow
Well when i see leaves losing the green color by the day,I assume there was a problem. I pulled off a bunch of fan leaves that were completely yellow&about to fall off. I usually get yellow leaves towards the end of flowering grow. I have not noticed any more rapid yellow turn since yesterday. Maybe its fixed,idk.
If its possibly bugs,which doesnt make sense bc i looked into the signs&i dont see signs of mites or thirps . i checked the back of all the leaves,nothing. I checked for webs near the bottom plant on the inside.I have a special spray for mildew. -Growers Trust Powdery Mildew Killer.Its completely non toxic&says it can be used on harvest.Should i spray the plant just in case?
I agree but like a fire adding logs slowly makes for a better burn lower leaves need to go anyway and it just seems to me a sweetspot of dangling a carrot...all just opinion though
Wouldnt like to say mate im a noob ...by the day seems a bit drastic though...yet i have read its normal near harvest .
I was always told Fox Farm Coco soil mix is the way to go,What brand soil do you use,ill just get thatnext time

Its only normal to yellow if it doesnt have nutes or its too cold for bacteria to convert organic nutes in to edible stuff.only reason plants yellow in winter.
Plant in the back is trash.Looks like that bc its been sitting there for a week Its the bottom part of the last plant i just harvest,which was huge. I have to get all the stuff into a bucket&every few plants i make vape oil with all the left over plant stuff. At harvest time i just stop watering the plants for a week and the plant starts to die and dry out&then i cut it down when the stems crack.

Well i grow inside. I make sure theres good air flow&i dont let runoff water sit and attract nats. I water when the soil is dry no more no less unless i am trying to flush the plant with water like i did recently to lower EC levels which were high one day. I usually check the runoff water ec levels just so i know theres not a lockout on the way. The humidity levels should be fine bc the lights are on&if i walk in the room its humid but not too* humid. I have never had a pest problem. I had a mold problem in the past but not a pest problem. The mold problem was bc lack of air circulation,early in my grow days.

I use Pro Mix HP or Sunshine 4. Sunshine 4 Advanced has coco in it. The regular S4 doesn’t.

No, you really don't want yellow leaves. If they're turning yellow they're giving up nutrients to the plant so it can move them around to other areas that need to be fed.
Also, note that in flower it's not usually a nitrogen problem. People get hung up on nitrogen during veg, but flower is much more dependent on P/K.
Yeah i get that , someone says that exact thing everytime its mentioned...my speculation was its outgrowing its roots and not actually deprived of nitrogen , a lagging indicator .
My theorising was for vegging plants mostly

OP
Clearly your having difficulty knowing how much or little to feed this mixed medium of soil and coco. Fuck knows why people mix the two things in the first place.
Just cut out the guesswork and buy some coco coir, bagged and ready to go.
Feed it every watering about 2/3rds of suggested amount off whatever nutrient chart matches your nutrients.
PH it to 5.8 - 6.2.
Job done.
Your guessing as your going, either too much causing lock out in flower or too little which I'd guess is the case.
