It will effect growth... mainly slow down the process for a little bit.. I am confused here.. you used FFoF.. with Fox Farm nutes.. and molasses.. i'm going with the molasses.... maybe cut it down to molasses + nutes every other feeding.. Also i omnly give my girls 1tbs per gallon

There's your problem - Molasses overdose

Get a PH tester for your soil, and flush with plain water once they're very dry.

This is what happens when you cut corners by using Molasses instead of one of the off the shelf bloom boosters, which contain some molasses.

Or use 1 tsp per gal Mol - that's plenty

distilled will be fine as long as, it's not contaminated with chlorine like Tap water is ( unless you let it sit for 48 hours uncapped so the chlorine can evaporate) :leaf:

Not to discredit the other opinions but you said you use FF BB and TB right? The FF feed schedule actually calls for grow big in flowering as well, just a 2 week break from it when you switch the light cycle. That leads me to believe you may just be getting Nitrogen deficiency.

Nonetheless, you are 7 weeks in flower and dont need those fan leaves, they are going to yellow and fall off during flower, its perfectly normal. That being said, its too late to correct a N def, but who cares, you're home free. I would start your two week flush now.

And chances are the yellowing will continue until harvest, but again its perfectly normal during the end of flower to get that.

Good job getting to harvest.

Again I dont mean to discredit the other posters, they are probably right, but I did the same thing with FF nutes, forgot to keep adding grow big in flower and looked just like that.
