Nitrogen Deficiency? Ph Lockout? pics

I could be wrong but it looks like a combo of nitrogen def & over watering. Def need more info. I.e. Strain? Lights? Medium? Nutes? etc..

Agreed. Looks like nitrogen def and over watering.

How is the PH? Check it make sures straight and then i'd feed some N, and lay off the watering.

More information will get you more answers. Peace

yes, what is the ph? That's the easiest way to rule out a ph problem. I tend to agree with the others that you have other issues than ph, but soil is NOT my strong point and you should check it just the same. Are there roots coming out the bottom of the pot?
 
i started upping the nitrogen about a week, maybe a week and a half ago. as for the over watering, idk i guess it's possible, but i thought at one point i was maybe underwatering them, it didn't seem to me like i was giving them too much

and since i upped the nitrogen, it does seem like the yellowing hasn't progressed any. at least for now it appears to not be spreading over any new leaves

Ya it looks like the start of nitrogen deficiency. Might want to consider getting some sort of PH and ppm tester to be more sure of yourself. :)
 
what up soulman. Yep that would be your best bet, but not in a couple of days, right away. Just the flush the ol lady out let dry out then add some fresh nutes/water maybe a lowered dosage to see what happens. she should recover nicely if thats the problem.

i am a soil guy how deep is that pot did you mix your own dirt or is it premixed first thought wet and hungry if she's
taller than 15-18 inches put her in a bigger pot 5 gal if doing bucket put at least 8-10 1/2 inch holes in bottom and one or rwo at the bottom on opposite sides
of the bucket wall at repot or before :

compost tea with epsom salts and very diluted old urine
pee aged in a jar 1 week plus 1 gal plus water
5 gal bucket dead leaves and compost
teaspoon epsom salts in cup hot water
pour all liguids on the leaves fill bucket up to just below rim
cover lightly and let sit a week air stone it if you have one or just stir a lot

use this to add to your water 1 tea 4 water then next 2tea 2water 3tea 1 water all tea go all 4 steps over ten days with an extra flush of robust unsulpher molasses 1 tablespoon /gal warm water plus same in MAPLE SYRUP concentranted heated plant sugars ]again read label plus pinch of ashes from a hardwood fire
city folks [bBARBEQUE Grill winter tree deadwood strorm falls etc start fire with natural tinder/kindling wood match watercolor paper twigs up to finger size or so bring hot dogs but don't drip in the fire ashes are great phos and potasium [sp] source dilute urine is used in sweden to replace up to 70-80% mineral based agricutural fertilizers
good general veg nute N approx 17-25 lots vitamin auxins some P K trace etc }
this is all to the soil i might do citric acid for canning drying fruit added to water when i notice run off water getting above 7.5 to 8

kelp extracts

with out haveing a pic of your dirt mix dry and wet
or knowing what it is hard to judge watering issue

my experience and your dirt mix changes this :

5 gal pot plant 2ft tall or more and bushy scrog flatop anywhere above 8 inches at least 2- 2cup measures
of that days water/mix every other day one week followed by every day next week rarelt more than 4

if you check the roots and they are curling around the outside edge of the dirt you need a bigger pot

when repotting massage those curling roots a little to loosen them up gently if done right they will start to fall free from gravity alone as gentle ptting loosens soil off enough for numerous microgripping roots relax and roam free little root in your new pot....

have fun you can also do a tea with high P guano and worm castings for a killer organic bloom formula with the maple and molasses but it can be strong dilute well and work up slow

hope thes get your girl feely better and soon ?fan in the room not just in/out?

citric acid and epsom salts or epsom and lemon lime juice
real or bottled in glass [goya]? nasty chems in pklastic leach

makes a good ph down rinse flush with a tiny bit of kelp extrasct and lots of water

amonnia and water or bleach and water lots lots water to either or tiny tiny amoumt reddevillye and lots lots lots water all work as household strong Ph up chems soda too but its weaker amonnia also dumps lots of N into system media
 
hey soulman

are your leaf tips burnt??

does look like overwatering and N def thou. if i were u id dry it out til its almost bonedry then go from there. and double check your ph
 
no i cant really say the leaf tips are burnt, i cut back on watering slightly, and after upping my nitrogen, the yellowing hasn't gone any further, i mean the yellow leaves aren't getting any greener, but it's definitily stopped spreading
