I posted some photos a couple weeks ago of a scrog in progress. All was well, until it suddenly wasn’t. Leaves on the bottom of the plants began to yellow, burn, and eventually die in an upward fashion. At first it seemed as if it was a nitrogen deficiency, but then the leaves on the very top of the plants began to yellow and turn a strange orangish color on some of the leaves. Also, stems became thin and weak. After carefully reviewing my own nutrients and schedules, I found that I had skimped the potassium. This is my third grow, but I still never would’ve dreamed I’d let a macronutrient slide like that. I just didn’t consider how little potassium I had used. Honestly, I think all the focus on the screen and training made me forget something very fundamental. Now, my bud doesn’t have much of a smell, and they are not dense like they should be. I’m going to remember this one, and I’m going to feel this in the jar. For anyone reading this, don’t let this one happen. I can’t think of a worse problem to have mid-flower.
