You're nearing harvest, so whatever that means for you, I'd prepare for that. ;)

no, there is a problem, especially with some of the leaf tips curling, overwatering, can do that, over-fertilizing can do that, and there are a lot of factors, but I can tell it's way too early in flower to be having that

No, they look ready or near enough ready to me that whatever these issues are, to correct them now seems somewhere between unnecessary.....or will just trade one minor issue for another.

12 weeks on an auto I’d be grabbing a jewelers loop first. She’s near done for sure from the pics she has a def but if you’re about the run through the white tape might as well let her fade into harvest!

I have had a few autos run over 100 days though so best to check.

Only trich shots will tell though!

Ive been giving it 5 ml of bush doctor calmag should i just up the dose? Or is the stuff you mentioned better for it? Ive just been giving it calmag at 5ml and foxfarm tiger bloom at 4 ml. So im willing to try that and see.

Stop cal mag in flower you need mag sulfer aka epsom salts for flower but watch your ph. This run I would just give h20 only until the finsih but next run do that

Despite the common mention that "fade" is normal. IMO it's not normal. My fan leaves stay completely darkish green until harvest. A few yellow leaves here and there is normal, but not overall fading. That's why I recommend most people use a "grow" nutrient Atleast til halfway through flower.

Depends on strain.

Fade is absolutely normal to an extent, if your leaves are dark green near or after the bulk youre probably overfeeding N which leads to excessive leaf production. In coco i back off of part a and push it with b and any boosters.

You do you tho

I used to think the same thing until someone mentioned on Rollitup about using foliage pro til harvest. I gave it a shot and found out just how important it was to keep the nitrogen high even in flower. But then again, I also let my coco get BONE dry, and the plants explode. There's a lot of bs info out here, I had to find out the hard way.

Imagine a world, where people don’t feed nutrients up until harvest, look around you, you’re here. In that world too. At the same time as us…..mind blowing I know, but people have differing approaches. I know that just YOUR opinion, but late fade is normal. Depending on strain and grow style. Have a good day!!!!!!

Strongly disagree, wayyy too much chlorophyll left if its dark green, harsh smoke that way. But do you brother ✌

How do you grow? Defoliate lollipop?
I let big fans grow so i want high N....but at the end I want low N so I get that fade as the plant uses up all those
complex sugars it stored in the Bank of Leaf through its whole life.
