She’s already a few days into flower but why is she yellowing or fading green? Is she asking for more nitrogen?

I’m growing in DWC and shes an auto so I don’t want to stress much. Iv been removing fan leaves that I feel are covering prime bud sites.

Still haven’t defoliated too much, just a fan leaf here and there.

What are your levels at? Temp, PPM, pH. Last one I did was in soil but just just dropped one into the DWC net pot this evening. Did your switch nutrient set for flower?

Is the water temp 80 F or room? Maybe bring them up a bit , hard to tell from that angle. Nice setup though!!

Might be cal mag deficiency, I’m seeing some red stems... sometimes the ph is the answer... but in Dwc there are many other factors.. water temp is crucial.. gotta be operating way below 85... 70-75 is optimal... I’d up the cal mag and go from there... possibly up the PK values also...

Cal mag at 100ppm then add 50/50 grow/bloom IMO you can go the whole grow on just grow. It's a nitrogen deficiency and also IMO for ease keep using grow nutes until after stretch. Now that being said there are techniques that you bounce around but not gonna get into it as I'm still tinkering myself.

agreed I could go 50/50 grow bloom, I was just told the bloom could be used as an all in one for flowering which I was told by the guy at the hydro store.
Edit: thinking of adding in Hydroplex if I see signs of deficiency as I had to adjust on my other tent.

Hydro store guys can be hit and miss. I think you can go bloom also but not until after stretch. On an 8 week I would do something like this 1-through 2 grow, 3-through 5 50/50, 6-through 8 bloom.

Possibly last week of veg bloom or 50/50 then back to grow.

Never used these nutrients but looking at the ratios that kinda something I would try first.

A little bit of Calmag is fine, but if you use to much your going to end up with a Nitrogen overdose, right when your plant screams for flower nuits to feed your muffs.
