Hi there. Sometimes I've seen lower fan leaves fall off when the canopy gets large and blocks the light out from the leaves underneath. If you are using a 2 part fertilizer and have switched to the flowering part, it may not have enough nitrogen for your strains demands. I usually still use the first of the two nutrients into the second week of flowering gradually lowering its dose as I raise the other, depending on the varieties needs. I wouldnt pick off the light green fan leaves until they are brown and are about to fall off on their own as they still contain food for the plant and the ability to still photosynthesize light for a while. As for the bugs I can definitely help you identify them if I can see them so let me know when you get those pics up and we can fix that too. Good luck to ya!

Yes i am using a 2 part fertilizer. I have 2 more girls I just just into flower so I'll try your idea on still feeding with part 1 into flowering. And for the pics I cant seem to add any.. I dont know what the deal is.. But the bugs are smaller than a grain of sand.Bright red.. I first noticed them when i put my girls in the window during the day untill i got my veg cab done..now moved into veg cab I've seen 2. not sure if its a problem.. only seeem them on the pots and on the walls. Havent seen them on the girls yet.. Thanks Always

Are these they? If so many people use soapy water to kill aphids.

To load pics click on "My IC" then album, then upload pics. just make sure you preview the post first to make sure it loaded correctly etc. I hope this is helpful.

P.S. do a search on "red mites" and see if any of those pictures bring up a match.
