    HELP! Leaves yellowing and drying up

    Hi,

    1st grow, made some rookie mistakes and had an emergency that i had to leave the plant unattended for 5 days recently so running into some issues and wondering if it's salvageable. Auto wedding cake, went in the soil on 4/21. Kind soil + fox farm in 3 gal fabric pot in 2'x4'x5' tent, 75 degrees, 35-40% humidity, 300 watt lec as high as i can get it running 24/7, clip fan for circulation and carbon filter plus fan for exhaust. Watering schedule has been about 2-3 liters plain water, ph in the neighborhood of 6.0, every 2-3 days depending on how much the plant is drinking (with the exception of the unattended time, had no water). I also was a bit heavy handed on the pruning shortly before the unexpected trip so assuming that didn't help either. Attaching some pics of the entire plant and then also a couple of the smaller, lower buds. Trics still seem mostly clear/ some milkiness but wondering if I should cut my losses and harvest now as there's some new growth forming on the big main cola (also didn't lst, never again) and one of the side colas. Thoughts, advice, well wishes, etc appreciated! Thanks! Click image for larger version

    Were the fried leaves a result of your trip?
    I'm trying to determine if its something you've done or if it's just the plant fading naturally.

      Maybe? Trip was about 2.5 weeks ago and the yellowing started shortly after i returned and then some leaves started drying up and getting crunchy about a week ago.

        I thought at first glance it was a Saguaro Cactus. Without seeing a closeup of the trichomes it's tough to know whether or not it's run its cycle or if it is sick. There is virtually no leaf growth anymore to fuel photosynthesis so it may be just feeding off itself at this point.

            In my experience dry, crunchy leaves are an indicator of bud rot - if that were my plant, I would carefully bend that big cola in half to make sure the insides are green and not brown.

              That was my initial thought as well from quick researching, but i don't see any other signs. Will post some more pics including from middle/inside of the big cola.

              Well - the trichome pics are blurry when you zoom in and the other two are just a jumble of leaves?

            A couple zoomed in shots of trics:
