HELP! Nutrient Problem After Flushing

4

So I am approaching my 7th-8th week of flowering.
I flushed my plant for 4days already. But it starts to show deficiencies.
I am wondering If I should harvest immediately or wait to keep waiting for a week?
Thanks for the response, everybody!

Hi, Skunk.

The yellowing leaves are nitrogen deficiency. That's a good thing during flowering. I'm fairly new, myself, but what I understand is that that your buds are sucking up remaining nutrients in the plant when you start flushing. The buds keep getting bigger but the leaf growth stops and all the energy goes to the flowers.
Go to the GWE website and do a search for molasses during the end of harvest. Also do a search for the nitrogen deficiency. This web site is crazy informative.
 
That looks like old nute burn to me. What color are the pistils? Can you post a close up pic of the buds?
 
when you flush you make the plant use up what it has left of nutrients in its cells ,you pictures show nute burn ,if I dont have a little nute burn then im not giving them enough lol , I do a defole in the 3rd week of bloom, bloom then you dont have all those fan leafs turning on you
 
Burn? If the yellowing is just starting, the plants are flowering, they haven't had nutes for a bit, and they're getting flushed, how can it be burn?
 
Gingerbeard rYeah it doesn’t look like nitrogen deficiency go to GWE and look it up last time I read it it says the yellow begins in the lower leafs when it’s nitrogen deficiency also the leafs turn an even yellow that looks like nutrient burn with light burn and heat stress my first grow I had that happen but that’s just my guess.
 
I checked out the info on GWE. That's why I said what I did. I acquiesce to everyone else's experience. 420's plants have general yellowing of the tips. Mine in flower started yellowing and getting a few spots from the bottom.
I understand, now, the difference. But I'm still confused how there's a burn when the nitrogen is taken away. Where is it coming from?
 
I don’t know. I guess both at that point.. like I said just a guess from looking at a picture that looks like it’s about to be done nitrogen deficiency is that living soil?
 
Gingerbeard , your buds look great everything else is a plant that is giving of its body to insure the buds get pollinated (only we dont let that happen) .I have had plants that look just like that at the end . you cant/shouldn't try to diagnose symptoms on a plant in that stage of life ,
 
I'm going to keep my advice to giving people links to GWE pages.
I didn't consider that my plants were anything but perfectly healthy and normal because of other pictures and readings about fan leaves going yellow and dying in flowering. I'll keep my triage to myself.
Thanks to all!
 
I agree with ATU, what we're looking at did not happen in 4 days.I'd just go with Ph'ed water and a little molasses til harvest.
 
when I give advice I try to keep it to my experiences ,if we all keep our advice to ourselves the forum would loose its effectiveness . so please share your thoughts,there are generally 6 ways to do something when your growing cannabis ,and there are some time saving ideas out there , every now and then someone will not like what you say so what if its good info
