Hey again! My autos are moving along nicely but today I opened tent to notice my new growth looking really light green with a yellow hue, some leaves also are seeming wrinkly and papery havent done anything with them in a couple days, fed them about 4 days ago with some grow big, calmag and big bloom in recommended amounts. Medium is FFOF with about 30% coco coir mix. Any ideas?

Ahh that makes sense, my main concern really was seeing this guy, the rest are mostly alright just pale, but this one looks papery and unwell. Think its just a one off thing?
That one is fine... those krinkly leaves happen on autos alot cause they grow fast i guess, not positive on the why. It will out grow it tho.

looks great, don't do anything to try and treat this, @Gorillabilly knows whats up, consider some defoliation on the lowers soon though
What light are you using? this looks like how a lot of plants grow under a decent LED
Im actually only running an Amazon special giixer "1000w" blurple right now surprising enough its been doing these girls some major good. Waiting on my mars TS 1000 to come in though for bloom. I've seen some contradicting ideas on defol, does it hurt or stunt the plant to do so?

defoliation can slow it down a bit if you do too much, most people wait until just before they flip to flower to really clear out the lowers, its really up to you when or if you do it, but as you gain experience you will start to understand why we do it.

I Defoe auutos but I'm a little less aggressive with them than I am photos. Reason being is if I go to far they may recover but end yield suffers. If a photo does stunts i just wait it out, veg longer. Don't get that luxury with autos usually. One of the 2 reasons I don't grow autos any more.
