issues during flowering

thats called rust you plant has a virus try advanced nutrients scorpion juice, its a root based problem

also h202 other wise known as hydrogen peroxide but the one from the hydro store use half strength everytime u mix water that often helps the roots not get sick ut scorpion juice is the shit

I did give it some of the cha-ching, it will take me a while to get the scorpion juice as I would have to order it off the internet. Can I just use a diluted H202 solution? or will that not work? Of the 2 plants 1 is doing much much better and the other is doing a little better but it deffinately was stunted and is considerably behind the 1st in terms of bud development. I will take some pics tonight and update. Can someone explain "Rust" to me?

ok I looked through the photos again. It looks like a phosporous problem not potassium. the cac hing will help. alot of diff advice here-forget the scorpion juice-you dont have a virus. the buds do not look like they are going south-cant even tell with pics provided. your plant should look this way about 1-2 weeks out from harvest. looks like you may have cut the veg nutes out a bit early. keep feeding her as you have 3-5 weeks to go. just feed with the caching-and maybe a teenny tiny bit of Nitrogen-reall teeny tiny. the leaves with the issue look like they are the original fan leaves-correct? if that is the case, than th leaves did what they are supposed-give up their nutes and let you know of the problem so it doesnt spread to the leaves immediately surrounding the bud. shit, your plants looked and still look so happy-see the way those leaves are still reaching for the sky? your temps and humidity are probably perfect. shit happens. I think you will wind up just fine. man it gets confusing with the deficiencies b/c everything starts with yellowing and by the time you can diagnose it, panic sets in. well dont panic. I have seen plants in their 3 week of flowering with zero fan leaves-I mean zero- and they still made it through-albeit I'm sure yeild was somewhat decreased.
scientific study has shown that a plant that has experienced much higher stress levels leads to a direct result of higher THC production from the plant-I think it was the Marijuana's Growing Guide. commercial growers have been known to puprosely stress the hell out of their plants. not saying advisable or ideal to do it, just trying to set your mind at ease a bit. you just need to nurse her to the finish line. continue with the caching until half your hairs or so have turned orange/red. than cut and flush for a week and check your trichs daily. 30% amber usually means the most recent buds have reached their full capacity. and kick that ph up to 6.8. 6.0 is more for hydro. it is possible you could have locked out the P from too low a ph-but I would have to consult the chart.
no worries mate

You have such little time b4 there completely done that it wouldnt be smart to add any nutes. Id just ride it out and keep watering with phd water for the rest of the grow and just harvest when ready. it should be flushed really well though and have a great taste.

im using AN 3 part & big bud and my girls look alot like yours, ,week 5 and most larger leaves are yellow and some are falling but not curling. Im not sure im mixing the right rate for soil. I used some cheap food, plant prod 15-30-15 and the leaves only got that yellow in the last 2 weeks.

wow smokey your the only person on 3 different forums to take the time to do a detailed and thorough analysis thank you very very much! just to give you an update i'm about at the end of 7 weeks of 12.12 and one of them recovered right away and the buds are dense and beautiful. the other is still iffy but still has alot of white white calyxes and buds development has stalled. i plan on harvesting the healthier one on time checking trichs ofcourse and let the other one go a little and see if the buds get dense at all. I'll post pics and update soon thanks again everyone for all the help. this is a great community and if we all help eachother there's more of what we love around.
