The plant already began looking better about 5 hours later.
The next morning- pretty dramatic recovery!

I am confused...and still dont know what the solution to my slight yellowing of new growth might be, so at the risk of being boring, here is a list of the nutrients that i am feeding the ladies
Nutrient A Contains:
Nitrogen N 66g/kg
Phosphorus P 45g/kg
Potassium K 239g/kg
Magnesium Mg 45g/kg
Sulphur S 71g/kg
Trace Elements:
Iron Fe 1700 mg/kg
Manganese Mn 400mg/kg
Boron B 500mg/kg
Zinc Zn 200mg/kg
Molybdenum Mo 50mg/kg
Copper (Cu) 30mg/kg
Nutrient B Contains:
Nitrogen N 155g/kg
Calcium Ca 190g/kg
I am feeding a mixture of these two nutrients
Am i missing something...and what would you suggest I add, to induce the recovery that you had on your yellowing new growth in the pics you posted

She is not looking good- underwatered/underfed/soil too hot/Cob too much/Root issues and bugs? or is it just Pot Puberty?
Decided to defoliate and add stickie traps for bugs, as one other plant had one today.
Fed as the last time-plus grow.
I'm concerned, no signs of flowering.

It bounced back- that eliminates above possibilities except- UNDERWATERING !
(or Cannabis Puberty, Mr.furley ) https://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum...-45-and-auto-s
No bugs on the sticky-all plants in tent.
Stop rapidstart and start watering daily or day and 1/2- watching for pistils- give it some more time before trying to trigger flowering.

Got one that start it's second week of flowering (photoperiod) with lower Leaf spots and overall droopy, slow growth. Last night it was water only night so I check the out PH (5.5), against the in Ph (6.5) last water only I had found the low exit number so it wasn't a big surprise. Needless to say she got 2gal of 6.5 followed by 3 more gallons of 6.8 for a finish exiting PH of 6.0. I will feed at a high Ph number and extra water then normal next feeding to try and stabilize the root zone around 6.2 giving the plant a chance to find calmag again.
All the sighs on the leaf looked like magnesium deficiency or potassium excess which can be one in the same, but the leading cause was lockout due to PH problems. This plant did not get a proper flush before the flowering switch which has seemed to control the ups and downs in the switch to flowering.

Cannabis puberty got me again! This is Great read as always Weed Pharma and a very important subject that does not get covered enough.

Yup, Cannabis Puberty is a thing- and someday we will learn the proper terminology/reason for it-
Until then, we continue with hillbilly horticulture, lol
Thank you- I try to bring various examples to the forum.

Same old Sativa- different day!
At this point she is drinking daily and not making it.
So, I defoliated more trying to reduce her requirements-
No pistils and no balls; yet the auto's germinated 1 week later, are all in flower.
Before defoliation.
All trimmed up.
If I had room in a tent- I would transplant her into a 5 gallon pot.
And we wait!

isn't that a 10 gallon pot why would you go to 5

Yes, reducing size would be counter productive -
It is a 3 gallon fabric pot.

Well that worked fine as she is back to every other day watering and looking good- a little "taco" leaf action- still no signs of flower.
current feeding is Si 1.5ml-Cal/Mag 3mls, Trinity 3mls, Potassium 1ml and I added molasses 2ml- which may be beneficial during the beginning of flower.
On a side note- I noticed a very small number of gnats (4) on the sticky- so moved her to the small tent under the Mars Reflector48.
Not worth treating, but if she stretches- the small tent won't hold her, so I want everything clear before returning her.
It's interesting that the 3 other plants in the larger tent have no gnats-but seem healthier.
I sprinkled BTi on the surface and used a 500ml root drench of spinosad.

WP I missed something did you transplant into a bigger pot and is that what worked ,if you look at my post in the great auto contest you will see I have a plant that has not stopped wilting even though she is growing well any suggestions thanks

No transplant- simple defoliation so the plant reduces demand on the watering by having fewer leaves to feed.
I'll take a look at the auto contest.

oldjarhead100, I would do the following to the plant which is droppy-corner plant?
1) more oxygen to the roots by pulling soil away from the stem to the containers edge.
2) add some type of mycorrhizae to the soil.
3) add some sugar- like molasses for 2 weeks.
4)defoliate as it doesn't need to support all those leaves.
5) let her dry out, then water only until the leaves start to fade in color a bit.

Time to return her to the larger tent-no further signs of bugs-every other day watering (a little droopy. OK) - still growing well-
This auto refuses to mature- long past the point you would expect.
Having never encountered this:
I researched a number of ways to assist flowering- but bottom line, 12/12-bloom nutes etc. doesn't change the triggering of flowers for auto's.
I can wait - she will have to grow up someday!
