I’d say, tomorrow wiould be the start of week 5 IMO. Maybe a day or two give or take! 
your right, it take about 4-7 days to flip into flower. Myflowering plants, it seemed like it took a good 7 days to fully flip into flower. Which seemed longer then my past grows.

Well gentlemen it finally happened I finally made a dumb ass rookie mistake that could have been completely avoided. I believe I have got some heat stress from my lights. Unless you guys think otherwise lights were at 12” per manufacturers recommendation have them moved back to 20” what do I do now? Any help much appreciated!

You may be right on the money on that one. I mean, i don’t see any cupping from any leaves or anything which makes me think it almost looks like a serious potassium deficiency, but hard to tell. It may just be heat, you may be right... let’s see if anyone has anything to chime in on

I think you made the right move backing off the light some.
to me it looks like a potassium deficiency based off pictures. As @Backlipslide mentioned there is no leaf cupping

how has your ph been lately? I feel you should flush with ph (6.5 or as close as you can get it ) water
I think that may be all she needs.

My ph is normal 6.0 I recalibrated my meter just to make sure that wasn’t the issue. Is that to low you think? How much do you think I would need to flush with in 5gallon pots

When I flush I do it with 2 or 3 times as much as I normally water.
Ph of 6 is ok but try not to go lower. And don’t be afraid to mix it up when watering Just keep it between 6-7 and your good
here’s a pretty cool graphic on how ph correlates to nutrients.
this isn’t a big issue. You caught it early. Things will be just fine

So adjust everything I said down .5 ph. You were perfect at 6 so I don’t think it is ph issue. How are the plants doing today?
Optimal ph for coco is 5.8

Here’s pictures from plant 2 I didn’t post yesterday
My feeding regimen is 2gals Tap water, 24ml Bloom A&B, 16ml big bud, 16ml bud candy ph at 6.0 each plant gets a gallon temp is 72-67 degrees RH 55%-48%
Here’s both as of now leafs still look rusty brown but don’t feel as crisp to the touch. But browning at lower leafs lead me to believe it’s something beyond light burn.

I went ahead and flushed both plants with 3gallons a piece of 6.0 water will wait for further instructions before doing anything else. How bad have I hurt them?
look pretty bad, but it happens. Don’t beat your self up. My last Blue Cookie turned out like crap. Ugliest plant I’ve ever grown.

I truly believe we’ll get you to harvest a happy man. Leaves will never turn back once discolored.
the buds are what’s important right now and they look great. It’s nothing to unusual. You’ve done everything correctly.
things are going to be just fine James.

Yeah don’t let my negativity (all of a sudden) steer you the wrong way. It looks fine! Don’t fret about it, your so close to the finish line it’s not going to matter much. You have her a flush, and now some good ol’ food will steer her in the right path to finish strong!

Thanks gentlemen, I’ll be planting some Blue mystic autos along with big bud and Skywalker photos when these are finished. Hopefully they will turn out larger and I can get a perpetual run started up

Hey James.

If you wanted you could probably trim those leafs off. Especially if they are blocking light to a flower. But it’s personal preference.
