+1 to what jack said. My sativas sucked down the N first three weeks of flowering. Don’t know what week I assume they just started flowering recently.

like to add that went leaves don’t get adequate light they die off also, just a natural occurrence. Happy grows.

It will help support the higher feed rate while staying organic.
Feed wise , start high, 2-3oz per gal and see how she reacts. Let her dry between feeds to uptake. Dry meaning top 3-4” soil is dry and weight if u can gauge that on pot is reduced to 50% or less from feed. Don’t water, feed everytime she needs water for the interim. Gotta get her back to a darker green before she is into full on flower and I feed fish emulsion along with flower nutes all the way through flower, doesn’t hurt sativa.

Your water appears to be off ph and seems to have some chlorine still in it. The leafs are extremely dry / dehydrated.
Get a zero water filter , 3 ,5 gallon buckets from home depot.
Fill all 3 and leave out in the sun.
Now take one in and pop an air stone in it and 1/4 teaspoon of dolomite lime.
Leave for 24 hrs to aerate.
Now bring the next bucket in and repeat with dolomite 1/4 teaspoon+ w4hr aeration.
With the 1st bucket fill up the zero water filter. The waters ph will read in the 5.2 or 5 area once filtered. Now, fill a 1 gallon jug 1/4 with the zero water and the rest with water that's in the 1st bucket ( That ph is in the 7.w zone)
Your water is now at 6.2 with the 1gallon= 1/4 zero water + 3/4 unfiltered + Cal/mag at a nice low dose and you now have a good rotation going with 3 buckets and can water your other plants!
Organic soil works as a buffer so your ph can be off but your making the soil work harder then it has to.
Also, before all that you now have a soil issue from bad water. Scoop some out and or add a nice top mix soil with some blood meal/alfalfa/ and fresh worm casting if you had them. Lastly, always play music for your plants.

Stop clipping the yellow leaves. Your leaves store mobile nutrients. When you remove a yellow leaf you’re also removing any of the remaining nutrients stored in the leaf. So your plant starts sucking nutrients out of the next green leaf (causing it to yellow). The more yellow leaves you remove the more your green leaves will start to yellow, and you’ll be chasing your tail. Leave the yellow leaves alone (they're fall off on their own).

You need to apply a balanced fertilizer. Super Thrive is not a fertilizer (but rather a vitamin supplement. Kind of like you trying to live on Flintstones vitamins.) Your plant looks like it needs more nutes. If your yellowing leaves remove easily (and seem to just fall off with a slight tug or seem “soft”) that's a sign of a nitrogen deficiency.

What's the plant strain?
