I’ve noticed in my last few grows around week two of flower right in the center of the bud sites the leafs become light green. Now from what I’ve read leads turning light green can be a sign of deficiency but each time after a week or two the lightness goes away and never spreads. Is this something normal that happens in the Beginning stages of flower?

When plants are growing rapidly, you'll get some of that. Plants don't green-up until light hits the plant part. When they don't green up after several days of exposure to light, there could be a pH related micronute problem.

In this case, I wouldn't worry.

Yep as stated above when a plants growing very fast like during stretch new growth will tend to be a light green until it has a chance to photosynthesize and make some chlorophyll.

Can be an indication of a micro deficiency also as stated above but micros are usually much more pronounced and tend to be more yellow.

For comparison, the two plants in the middle had a pH problem. The one over to the left just has light tips because it's growing fast.

Light beautiful green is a sign of new growth.

What? No it's not. It's an offset of transportation from low humidity misbalances for photosynthesis, the plant is getting overwatered. When humidity is to low the plant uses large amounts of water, that causes the plant to bring in to much water in to fast of time. Cannabis likes to be dry more than it is wet. If u have to water everyday you are in to small of a bucket causing you to overwater. Plus his low humidity is causing the plant to use even more water to transpire correctly sucking even more water.

Solution: Switch to a bigger pot once Your frequency of watering is at every 3 days. You want to be around 4-5 days between waterings. Slow the transportation down by raising the humidity to match your temps or use a vpd chart. Example 80°F requires humidity to be 60% RH even during flower. 90% of green tops is bucket size to watering frequency (Overwatering)

This will eliminate his green tops.

This is exactly right. I took your knowledge and it fixed this issue for me. It's difficult to find the right solution online when you are a beginner because there is a lot of false answers out there. Thank you

Hello Sr. This makes very sence. Please can you give me an input here?
I have same problem with my tops..only with DWC .. I know i use small buckets compared to what i normally use. Now im at 10liters bucket for each plant. And i have tried everything, changing water several times a week.. Cleaning buckets...of fear of root rot and such. And also for the pH to be right. I use PH-perfect Advanced Nutrients. And this is a plant i have been growing for over 10 years. So i know it pretty well. This never happened before. The tops are very yellow-ish. Light green ish ... And it almost looks a bit sad. Not proud and green like usually.
Do you think this also is from over watering? Or humidity ?
I just fill the buckets every second or third day. And they are drinking a lot...👍
Just worries me sick that the tops(the new growth) is very light and looks kinda weak....
