Outdoor 5 gallon bucket
Started with mircle grow then halfway into veg I switched to fox farm. And it looked great! I think my PH may be off alittle. Never could get a pen. I know the fan leafs turn yellow and die during flower stage but this fast? I think somethings wrong.
When I water her now it creates a sink hole like circle in the soil and i have to fill it in(see in the 2 pictures) Why does it do that? And also when i water now it starts to drain very quickly.. please help

How many weeks into flower?
The soil thing isn’t bad. If anything it’s nice and aerated. I have to readjust my top part of my medium each time too.
Draining quick isn’t bad either unless there’s already enough water in your soil that it can’t soak anything up and it’s just running through your medium.
As long as you’re giving it a nice dry cycle and good run off each time you have no worries.
Don’t stress to much about ph in your soil unless your water is waaaay off like in the low 5,s or high 8’s you shouldn’t have much issues.

Looking back at that one picture with your soil, next time you water make sure to get all the medium nice and wet. At this point in your grow you shouldn’t have any dry spots in the medium after you water.
 
Hi
I honestly believe those plants are not even close to harvest they look at most 3 weeks into flower maybe 4.
The pH could be a issue but I think miracle
Grow maybe to blame it's a bad mix anyway you cut it.
Also it's nighttime and you're exposing that plant to light.
 
That’s a lot of dead leaves but you’ll probably be okay till harvest, you got a lot more good leaves left. The only think you can do is add nitrogen but at this point I wouldn’t recommend it. Up to you tho
 
You need to feed them nitrogen. There shouldn't be any yellowing leaves at that stage.
Not a fan of FF nutes, but maybe try using a 1 part grow and 2 parts tigerbloom next time, instead of all tigerbloom. What and how much, have you been feeding them?
It could also be a problem with uneven watering.
Its draining fast because the soil has become really dry at somepoint, hardened and now the water tunnels to the bottom without soaking the whole pot.
When watering, go easy and just try to get the top saturated first. That should help with the watering draining too fast.

Edit: If you were talking ff and mg soil and not nutes, than your problem is your soil is depleted and you need to start feeding them when watering.

i recommend dynagro. Can go with their grow and bloom (2 part) or some just use the grow the whole way through, with good results.
Maybe start with around 600 ppm or around 5 mil to start.
