It certainly looks like it, but I'd like to know a bit more about your setup.
How long has the plant been in flowering, when was it's last pot up, what size pot is it in, what are you feeding it and at what level?
i just gave it veg nutes so maybe it will fix it.. but to answer your question. 5 gal pot and dont know how long ago its been since i put it where it is. but its too late for that. its coming up on 4 wks of flower. i havent given it much of any fert just bonemeal a few wks ago.

did you get my email?
its time to revisit this issue as its gotten worse and i now find it hard to believe that its still a deficiency thats causing the yellowing.a few have said as babygro did that it could be root bind but its in a 4 gallon pot. another even said it could be lack of watering. so i invite you all to toss your ideas into the hat in hope that i can get this issue under control. there is a pic named betsy at 4 wks in my gallery and you can easily see the yellowing. thanks

It's Nitrogen deficiency. Just because you can't cure it doesn't mean the diagnosis is wrong.

ya your soil could be locking up some of the nutes..
shes a little over 5ft tall. and huge. any idea how difficult transplanting would be not to mention the shock to a flowering plant?

Yes...fully...that's why I put it in CAPS. Seems like the plant is on a downward spiral and this is a desperate move. Flush a couple times (allow the plant to recuperate between flushings) and see how it does. Then reintroduce the nutes. Remember hempie, to allow enough time for the plant to take in the nutes. Don't expect immediate results, like next morning after a feeding to see the yellowing stop. It could take a few days for the plant to take in the nutes and show the results with new growth. Good luck.

Hemp, I didn't catch it but I am assuming you are in soil? I have no idea how big your root ball from a 5' plant would be but look at your current pot size and go up a size from there. But remember to try flushing first before transplanting. That should be your last resort this late in the game. Here's another thought, why not cut a few clones, JIC, and get them going. You can flower those after just a couple days vegging.

i bet your nute soultion mixed with the water may be throwin off the ph...an if its to acidic thats what could be causing the soil/root lock....check the ph of the water/nutes together
