Hey guys. Question. My plants look really good. Nice green and lush. Noticed that the bottom and inner leaves are turning yellow and starting to fall off. I'm pretty sure I'm giving enough nutes. Only the leaves that don't get sun seem to be affected. Is this normal. Happened last year also but I had lots of problems growing in MG. Really pretty sure it's not nitrogen deficiency. All nutes ph'd to 6.3-6.4. Outdoors, ffof, Dyna grow Foliage pro. Rest of plant looks great. No spots, no bugs.

Sounds normal. I pick them off as they yellow, figure it pushes nutes into the rest of the plant without fighting to keep a dead or dying leaf alive. Dont know if it actually works that way, but sounds good enough to make sense to me. -
Some pics. I'm still new to all this, only my second grow. Don't want to blow it now. Seems early to be doing this. Still in veg but getting lots of preflowers.Comment

You are doing fine! That big leaf in the second picture would be gone already if it were mine. It may not be the proper thing to do, but I go out every day and defoliate 5-10 leaves per plant after they hit at least the fifth node, but I typically stick to huge water leaves, any damaged leaves from grasshoppers primarily, and dead or dying leaves. I try to leave the smaller leaves around the budding sites till just before harvest, let those buds get light and more airflow, plus makes trimming easier.Comment

I can pull leaves till I have double fist fulls at this point, and it looks like I haven't touched them afterwards. I've heard that pulling too many of the water leaves can affect the balances in the plant, only time I noticed is last year when I tried taking anything I didnt want to trim off halfway through bloom, even that plant produced a pinch over a pound.Comment

DW2 ya nut LOL
but yes it's normal. Your plant looks great Bowhunterwoody really full. May i say that you could remove some big old fan leaf i would just to keep the air flow going.

Oh man good thing no flowering. Man it's a mad scramble figuring out where to shelter large plants in the fall. Defoliate real good try taking lots from the bottom for air flow, even those flimsy little nothing branches.Smoke Ganja create Peace Respect Nature don't trash the Planet
