Im about 2 weeks from harvest so I am too late in the process to attempt to correct anything but wondering if anyone has seen this and what I would do to fix it if i see it the future and have the time to correct.

I believe I had a magnesium and phosphorus deficiency, which I treated last week and gave a light feeding 2 days ago. Now one set of leaves has this bronze/gold coloring in the leaf, just noticed it this morning and was not there yesterday. I’m closing in on harvesting so I don’t want to provide any nutes or do too much to correct it but wondering if it’s maybe a calcium deficiency or if it’s just healing from the mag/P deficiency I treated last week. Just trying to learn so I know what I’m looking at in the future…

could be just a natural fade from the plant coming to the end of life

@RGWD0202 - I think you are right. There could be some light burn, too. Have you thought about reducing the light? I don't think it's calcium deficiency. It could be a lingering effect from the Mg & P deficiencies. There could be some senescence involved, as well.

I would leave it alone

Thanks for the response. No, my light is at the top of the tent, unfortunately I had to remove my Scrog and wasn’t able to bring my branches down without snapping or splitting the main stalk… the top buds are only 3 inches from my light, but I did move the plant so the top isn’t directly under it but now I can’t reduce the light anymore or anything below the tops won’t get enough light… it’s been a fun balancing act.

I've grown into the light, too. Maybe most of us have. The weed was good anyway.

That was my plan this go, but if I see it again would like to know what caused it so I can fix it if I can. I appreciate it!
You probably won't see the same problem again because you've learned and fixed things during this grow. I suppose we growers live somewhere between preventing and fixing problems. Just focus on making each grow better.

That's often best, at least until sure about what needs to be done, if anything.
With 2 weeks left, I would let it run its course, if it was halfway done, then I would probably address it if necessary. That's just me though 🤷‍♂️. There are many ways to grow the dank ✌
