Bah! I'm pissed...she was looking beautiful about 3 weeks ago and now boom...yellow leaves. I stopped feeding her Tigerbloom for now because the problem was getting worse.
I have her in an airbasket made out of a 5 gallon mesh bucket looking thing.
If anyone would help I would greatly appreciate it!
Here are some before AND after pictures. You can most def tell the difference.

I water till the soil is moist every other day, I have 2 airstones in the bottom with what I beleive is a 25lb aquarium air pump, 2 150w 6900k CFLs ( I know I need amber color but I'll change it next grow), 1 650 red led stoplight, 1 fan.... I was feeding it the recommended servings for the tigerbloom but I guess I didn't do it right. This baby was the darkest green and so perky a couple weeks ago. Now look at it :(

I'm still VERY new to this but I don't understand how suddenly everything can just go to shit in the blink of an eye. Is there any chance in saving the plant and the crop? It has some nice buds fattening up....and I really don't want to put all of this time and effort to waste.

try switching your watering cycle.. instead of day on and day off just try to keep it relatively moist all the time (only allow top soil to dry up but keep area closest to roots good and moist..

otherwise make sure your nutes are on track.. it looks as though only the top portion of your plant is breaking down. but the pics are hard to see and hard to get any info from.

Nah, I keep it moist all the time but only let the top layer dry like you said. And as for it only being the top breaking down... it's kinda the whole thing. :( Sorry for the bad pictures once again, I just wanted to show the yellow leaves and the curling. Thanks for all who responded.

Is there anyway to "Fatten" the buds up? I know my lighting sucks but I heard if you switched to 8 hour lighting that it helps a bit. Since seed, my plant has been on 12/12...just wondering if I should change things up a bit or leave it on 12/12 and hope she turns out okay?

since seed it been on 12/12!?! what! next time try 18/4 or 24/7 for veg then 12/12 for flowering.

best thing you could do now is experiment with your plant and hope for the best next time

Click to expand...

what do you mean don't worry about the leaves? It kinda looks like the plant is about to choke.. You think the bud will still be fine? The buds are still bright green and the leaves all around them are nice and green with white crystals all over them. But my other leaves are still yellow =\ ahh I'm confused.
