Too late to correct Nitrogen deficiency?

[zamabeezi]

So, i have a couple of ladies showing obvious signs of significant N deficiency, it's developed over the last 1-2 week. I've read in a couple of places that N deficiency is bad in veg, but is ok towards the end of flower (apparently lower levels of N at time of harvest is desirable for a better smoke).

The thing is, i'm only just 6 weeks into flower, i have at least another 3-3.5 weeks of flower yet. I'll have some nitrogen additive tomorrow. My question is, do i leave them as they are for the last few week, or, should i try to correct the N deficiency? Will the N deficiency, at this stage in the grow, effect my yield? On the other hand, if I try to correct it, will it leave a bad taste in my buds?

Cheers in advance guys

I'd be inclined to not add N at this point. I think your buds will thank you. Most bloom nutes do have a little and most calmag does as well. Is this true for you with your nutes? Pics would help.

Some of my yellowest plants have produced my best and biggest buds.

Cheers for the input dudes. Think i'll ride it out. This is my first grow, will b growing same strain again so got some N additive for next time, i'll keep an eye out and add a small amount to my first nute batch after flip if there's any sign of it coming on!

Thanks again

I HIGHLY suggest adding a 1/4 dose of nitrogen.
Liebig's law of the minimum - Wikipedia

You will get big buds either way, your terpene and cannabinoid production goes way up with proper nutrients.

Edit: I'm only suggesting adding enough nitrogen to let it ride out. If your bloom nutrients have 5% or more I would just keep with that.
