I usually don't grow autos. This one was sent by mistake. The plant has leaves turning yellow. I thought this was the usual case of root aphids as the symptoms are exactly like root aphid problems. Yellowing leaves starting on inside bottom and working their way up and out. It is too late to worry about N and my well water is so full of Ca it taste like chalk Ph is not an issue. Also buds not maturing or getting fat as they should about now. Suggestions and opinions please. There are no visible root aphids. Thsi does not mean they are not there but probably not. I tried to get them to show but no show.

You have more experience than I do I think so I don’t think I can say anything real startling but speculating an auto might need just a little more in the way of nutrients than your usual photos? Aside from the possibility of root aphids that is the only thing that comes to mind for that type of yellowing, unless it is just that they are nearing the end of their normal lifespan more quickly than you are used to. Not much help I’m afraid. Good luck!
 
The leaves have a fairly distinct taco to them. That is usually a sure sign of heat stress. Whether or not that is contributing to the yellowing I can't say. Growing outdoors in a desert environment is a slippery slope at best and there is a natural tendency to over water, leading to root issues. Some strains do better than others in hot conditions and it's possible this one doesn't. I keep zip lock baggies of frozen water in my freezer that I lay on the surface of the soil for my more sensitive plants on hotter than usual days and that has helped keep soil temps down and allow the beneficial bacteria from cooking off. You have experience in high temps so I'm probably preaching to the choir but it's just my 2 cents worth. Good luck -
 
Look I wish I could help you but I have zero knowledges when it comes to autos strains and on top of it growing outdoor in a desert climat. One auto grower name come to mind is Canuck147, I'm sure he could help you.

Good luck grower friend.

It is a about 75 days old. Been over 109 for six days. I will chalk it up to it being an auto that I no not know how to grow. All my photos are fine and have been given more or less same treatment. Thank you for all the response. It will be replaced with photo sativa Malawi X Panama.
