starting week 6 flowering and plants are dropping leaves like crazy. i know plants drop fan leaves towards the end of flower but iv never seen them drop like this. iv never grow this strain before and its thc bomb. smell great and covered in trichromes. looks like they just put that first amount of weight on over night but leaves look bad. these plants had a lot of stress in their veg from soil mites but the bugs have been gone for a few weeks now. ph is normal. put some soil in a cup with distilled water for 30 min and ran it through coffee filter. tested the water and its between 6.5 and 7. its fed ph 7 with jacks classics and molasses. heat stress maybe?

i added 2 florescent lights two days and have been giving them 15 min to 30min uvb daily for about a week. temps went into the low 80s with the florescent lights though. is it from uvb or the heat or just normal. i dont think its normal

What are the temperatures in light off and on? It looks mega hungry for phosphorus and low temperatures lock it out. It's not from heat, the plant imo is either getting it's nutrients locked out or it's just not getting enough food.

If it were me I'd give it a full feed of Jacks with some CalMag next watering. No, this is not normal unless you have some weak sissified genetics. Don't think it's heat related.

temps were as high as 85 with lights on and with out the added lights its 72. i have already removed lights and stopped using uvb. today i fed a full dose of jacks bloom and gh micro. they looked low on nutes 7 days ago so i fed a full dose of jacks and molasses then. they just haven't improved.

these pics are like a week old.

would it even be worth it to flush?

Don't short them on N using a "bloom" nute with little or no N. Doing that will cause, or at least accelerate, the yellowing you are seeing.
