cut those fan leaves off as long as the bud looks good who care about leaves, most experience growers chop those leaves off , last 2 weeks of flowering so they get as much light as possible on the buds,

yeah just noticed that its in day 72 .. but , the hairs look pretty white for it being that old ?
I have done an 8 week veg (56 days) , and I've just finished week 6 of flower (42 days) and out of my 34 plants (20 x critical kush, 3 x uk blue cheese, 6 x sharks breath & 5 moby dick) the problem has only occurred with like 4 of my critical kush.... It's so random and seems to have only affected the one strain??

I intend to flush them for 3 - 5 days with ph adjusted water but I'm concerned as I'm on a tight timescale and they need to be ready to chop at the end of week 9. Will flushing them have an adverse effect on my flowering time? I really hope they get better but the few affected visibly appear to get worse almost daily :( considering that I'm using 15 litre pots will 3-5 days of flush be adequate? And as someone stated should I then just use half strength nutes and if so for how long? With me nearing the end of things I want to correct the problem with as much accuracy as possible.

once again a big thanks to all that have replied, posted and advised me. I hope my girls get bebetters

p.s. out of the 20 kush all except the 4 damaged ones have red pistills which have begun to recede into the calyxes. The 4 affected still display white pistills and are now what would appear to be almost a week behind in terms of flowering progression.... That concerns me and puts them off track (time wise). Will this remain or will they "catch up" in any respects??

overdose victims. some strains will show it sooner than others. canary in a coal mine style.
Would the flush as stated in my last post be the most effective treatment for the problem, and when returning to nutes half strength? If half strength, for how long? I was gonna do a 14 day flush and use GHE ripen just before the flush. How would any of that reflect on my remaining time in flowering??

Thanks again to all :)

most of the time the leaves will look like shit very late flowering. its normal.
Why do people continually perpetuate this myth?. It is not normal at all, and generally occurs from grower error.

To the OP:

Have you checked for insects?...I ask b/c some of those brown curling leaves remind me of mite damage.

I had a thirps infestation about 3 weeks ago, I have since go rid of them, the problem came about a week after I had got rid of them.
