So i snapped photos for you guys. You can see the result of yellow and brown leaves, but there are only a few. Others are showing a few spots, as well as yellowish tips.

I also notice there is some curling inward, meaning the leaves are trying to conserve moisture. The light was low and is now at 21 inches.

Number one is 23 inches tall now.

Number two is 21.5 inches tall now.

And number three is 16 inches tall.

As you can see the plants are still very lush and healthy, i just know the problem can progress and I don't want to see them die >.<.

Here are the pictures, hopefully they help find the answer.

These leaves are from the bottom of number two. Sterilized the scissors and snipped them off.

Also I did a light flush both on number one and number two.

I believe the only reason this occurred is because I bumped the nutrients from 1/2 TSP. per gallon to a full TSP per gallon.

But theres no symptoms on number 3 xD. Still gave her a small flush.

Time to snip garbage leaves from number 1. Thanks all

Went to snip a yellow leaf, and accidentally snipped a small node on number one -.-...epic fail.

This whole leaf issue has me on edge xD.

I did the same once, went to turn a plant and I snapped off a branch!
Its still early in the game, it will grow into the space by the time it's finished I bet.
just means more light for the rest of your beautiful plant. Don't get down..

Thanks k3n. Do you think that the leaves show nutrient. It was a small node..but thats not even what im down about. Just figuring out the leaves is my mak worry. Come this far, nothing can ruin it xD.

Hopefully giving normal water and lower doses of food will resolve it.

Thanks k3n:D

If those tips of the leaves wen't brown/black swivvled then crumbled off or you removed them then yes nute burn, if you're feeding in coco don't start just feeding water it won't help still always feed with nutes just use a lower dosage plant's that size no more than half strength i would say maybe stretch to 3/4 of max dose
If not you may have some bugs hiding somewhere which have been making a meal out of your plant's

I seen like a tiny gnat flying around, but thats it. The tips and you confirm nutrient burn. I added a decent amount of non-food water before the lights went off just because i was so worried.

So when the light flip in ten hours, would you recommend feeding 1/4 tsp. Or 1/2 tsp. Per gallon? I feel if i stay too high in dosage that it will keep burning :(.

Im probably worrying more than i have to, but i just want the girls safe and sound.

The preflowers are popping up more and more. Im guessing within a week it will start to look insanely different.

Thanks ellies:D. Helps a lot buddy.

Since the plants were doing perfect at 1/2 TSP. I think thats all I am going to feed them. Ive read that in Coco you alwayd want to flush, or 1/3 cup of food and topped off with 2/3 cup or normal water.

Maybe sticking with the 1/2 Tsp like before is the best route. If after feeding them that constantly I see burn ill go to 1/4 TSP.

Thanks all.

The plan was to do an update tomorrow, but I can't wait.

I can see why everyone has stressed how much of a stretch WW x BB stretches in flowering. The girls have grown an inch a day in flowering so far, meaning six inches already.

I made up new food for them. I knew upping the dose to a full TSP. a few days ago wasn't a good idea. I am now back to 1/2 Tsp. Per gallon. They will be fed shortly, once the water isn't cold and the temperature of their room.

Number one is 24 inches tall, and is the tallest. Also the first to show her preflowers.

Number two, the massive bush, is 22 inches tall. But so wide. Second beauty to show her preflowers.

Number three is so hard to even differentiate from number two..except she's shorter. The fim on her made her look like number two. She looks just like number two did before i flipped flowering last week. Last girl to show her preflowers.

Sorry the photos haven't been much, and quite orange, it's just a matter of time until i can capture the pistils better.

So ww x bb will stretch a foot or two and then really start to bud? Or is it more?

Thanks everyone :D

So amazing looking back at what the girls were, and what they've transformed into now :D.

I totally forgot you can like things..and also how to XD. Thanks RL.

I think they are looking excellent. No other leaves than the ones I noticed are showing burn. I fed at 2:30 am..and again at 2:30pm. The coco is at that perfect condition to water twice exactly in the 12 hours of light.

These are most definitely the most beautiful plants I have ever grown. Along with the tallest, and most lush. It's all around amazing. And yet its still just beginning.

Thanks RL and everyone :D.

P.s. How do you like a post XD?

It has been officially one week of flowering. Tje girls are on and still no signs of further nutrient burn.

What a relief :). I was worried.

How long would you predict until the pistil really begin getting longer and more visible? Second ti third week?

Thanks everyone :D.

Hello everyone.

I've been on a few grow journals and discovered that those budsites really develeop around day 14 to 17.

The girls are looking amazing and Ill be doing an update before they flip off again, since its officially been one week of flowering.

Well even though I did an update a day or two ago, I went in and got a lot of better shots.

Rather than having the flash off, and having super orange photos, I put the flash on and it shows a the green in the plants so much better.

As for that mild case of nutrient burn, turns out many Coco growers intentionally burn the plants by overfeeding and it shows them to back off the food. I won't burn them anymore, as the girls are very satisfied at 1/2 TSP. of food per gallon.

Here are photos of number one. She is currently nearly 25 inches tall. Her preflowers, as you can see, are the closest of them all to being long pistils. I noticed that this plant was the worst one with nutrient burn, but luckily that was easily fixed. Hell, a lot more can go wrong than nutrient burn XD.

Here is number two. The mammoth bush. She was lightly affected by nutrient burn. Noticeable preflowers, but smaller than the ones on number one.

DSC01471.jpgDSC01454.jpgDSC01461.jpgDSC01462.jpgDSC01467.jpg

And finally number three, whom shockingly resembles number two. Just not as mammoth in size. Very tiny preflowers on her, but hey, she is the runt.

DSC01466.jpgDSC01470.jpgDSC01455.jpg

My only issue now is trying to lower the heat above the tops. Ive had the light at 21 inches...but only have 21 inches of height left to raise it. What do you guys think? There isnt a shelf or anything to put the fan in there so the air can blow above the tops. Hmph -.-..

Here is the grow and thanks everyone :D.

The buds on the only plant i harvested were so light in weight due to garbage cheap CFLs.

These are about to be thick and massive nuggets..with weight.

The excitement is so overwhelming xD. I can't wait to see them appear in a week-ish.

Think its possible to weigh out at harvest with ten ounces?
