Someone help please!
O.k,Myplants are in a premium potting mix(Debco pot and tub) with a bit of added perliteworm castings and a small amount of dolomite lime.The soil contains slow release fertilizer.Pots on my larger plants are about 18inx18in and the Ph is about 6.5...I have to rely on a powder test kit so its not very accurate.
I used seaweed extract during veg and now thrive fruit and flower(15/4/26) at 1/2 strength every 5 days...i know it's not the best fert but it's the only thing I could get locally for flowering.I water once a day with regular tapwater and they sometimes get a soaking from rain.
The problem with the plants is yellowing and dying leaves,It starts on the oldest leaves and slowly works its way up.It begins as a sort of slow fading from lime green to yellow with whitish patchs and sometimes dead patches starting at the tips....Not like nute burnt tips though. I had this same problem(i think it's the same thing) during veg,I re-potted and the plants and they were fine.
here are some photo's
This is the beginning of the fading
to this
and eventually this
Full plant pics
This plant had the same problem at the beginning of flowering,I repotted and now it hasn't got a yellow leaf on it.Too bad it's my worst strain.
The only things I can tyhink of are Magnesium(I used Dolomite lime though) Nitrogen deficiency(I thought the ferts would fix this!??!) or rootbound,but I don't think the pot on the larger plants is small enough tocause problems and the smaller plant(ak48) I believe should be fine in that pot....If I cant fix this in the next few days I think I'm just going to re-pot and risk hermies
HELP!!

I would get a better nutrient, the one you are using is not balanced and can cause nutrient problem absorbtion if the plants don't have the proper balance.
