This plant is a bubbliciouse clone and started 12/12 4 weeks ago. I water with Dyna Gro Blossom and it has yellowing of the fan leaves is this a concern? Also how much longer untill harvest. This plant gets direct sun and is moved in at night in total darkness. 12/12 inside and out.DSCN1289.JPGDSCN1290.JPGDSCN1287.JPGDSCN1288.JPG

Probably a nitrogen deficiency or sulfur, I'd feed it more before it gets worse.
If your feeding 1/2 str nutes try 3/4 str. IF your doing full strength already, I'd water it with nutes instead of plain water more often. Id up the micro nutes too, just so I can get rid of the problems and increase resin prodution :)

I agree... I water mine with nutes every time I water with full strength of 20/20/20 miracle gro... People said I would burn it up, but it is the healthiest plant I have ever seen....

Doesnt Miracle grow give the smoke a bad taste? I was also told it may be watered to much but I really have no clue. I put an image that was taken last week before all of this happened. I cant really tell but I think the buds are still healthy and growing.

I can tell you it is something with nitrogen, not sulfur. Nitrogen is a mobile nutrient, where sulfur is a stationary one. Mobile nutrients are taken in at the top of a plant first, and what is left is sent farther and farther down the plant until there is none left, and whatever didn't get any, is just shit out of luck.
Stationary nutrients are taken in by the entire plant evenly.

Looking at those plants I see more advanced yellowing at the bottom, meaning its most likely a N deficiency. Do not just dump more nutes on the plant. Check your pH first. You want it at around 6.7, anything else can lock out specific elements depending on the number.

How do I check the PH in the soil? I have test strips for my pool can they work? Also I transplanted it from a 3.5 gallon to a 5 gallon pail. I did not disturb the plant or dirt I simply added new dirt to the vottom of the 5 gallon pail and slid the old pail off and the plant into the new pail. The roots you could see all over it I guess thats good or no?

Any fertilizer has the ability to make your grow taste like shit. That's why you flush for two weeks.

So you are saying to use the Miracle grow on it again corect? And if so you are saying to stop all nutes 2 weeks prior to harvest. Should I water with that every time or how often?

only use half strength, i cant stress that enough. every other watering. if you use full strength prepare to watch your babies die or lose 2 weeks of progress

I don't know how the test strips for a pool work, so I can't really say on that one, but you can get simple pH meters for like 5 bucks at any hardware store.

The roots circling the container are a good thing if you are going to transplant, as that builds a good root mass, and that means a more vigorous plant once it can stretch the roots again, however, it can also hinder a plant if the roots get too bound. 5gal should be fine.

When I transplanted it I did not disturb the dirt or roots at all and already it has perked up. I want her to go another 4 weeks or so. The other Bubbliciouse is 2 times that size and in week 2 of budding with no issues as of yet.
