The leaves are turning yellow because your buds are stealing all the nitrogen from your leaves. It's pretty normal I hear.

They're looking pretty damn sweet, home-skillet.

Is that aluminum foil?

Aluminum foil bad... can cause hot spots and plant burning.

MORD is correct, the buds are sucking up all the nitrogen at this point to grow more. You can add more nitrogen to keep the fan leaves green, but I've never heard or read that this provides any benefit. Just keeps the plant looking green.

I've got a Blueberry grow at 6 weeks flower and the fan leaves are turning from purple to yellow. I'm not too concerned, cause the buds are growing bigger and getting frostier.

these are just some bag seed from some really good mids. and the guy that grow the mids said that he picked them way to early. so i am hoping by letting them grow for the full time that it will turn out good.

because the mids that i got the seeds from have purple spots and where really good.

what can i use besides tinfoil. and what are some good nutrients at this point.

thanks they are looking pretty good.
:joint:i cant wait:joint:

ok cool thanks.

can someone help me figure out what fert or nuts to use during flowering.
i herd u should use a 20-30-20 mix but the fert i have is 10-15-10 mix.

White paint is better then foil. Flat white. I use exterior grade to deal with the humidity. (and the brightest white)

I'm not sure, but I think all hate the foil due to the hot spots it causes from its wrinkling.
If that is the reason, then mylar does it too. I used to sail competitively and the dacron sails would stretch and lose their shape. The mylar/kevlar sails would actually shrink from the wrinkles.

So if the mylar remains flat it seems fine (as would foil if also kept flat/smooth)

is it ok to prune some leaves off your plants so that light hits the lower bud or is this a bad idea.

I put mylar in my area. Raises the tempature a bit, though. Bought the 2M versus the 1M, seems to hold up better.
