My plant seems to.be losing a few small leaves deep within the plant im losing a few every 4 5 days im not sure if its because theyre blocked by light and they have no use anymore or my girl is killing off leaves she doesnt need to.feed anymore they go yellow and fall off theres no larger leaves dying just odd one or 2 really old leaves have started to.go right at bottom by the soil

It Ian uncommon to lose leaves when you first begin to flower, generally it isn't an issue until you find yourself pulling a handful out every feeding. The purpose of the leaf is to feed the plant until it's no longer providing and at that point the leaves yellow out and drop off or get crispy then come off with the slightest of touches. I wouldn't be concerned. However if it does get worse you should probably create a new post with some photos. Even if the plants look great, we like to see them :)

OK I doesn't seem to be getting worse its just a couple of small leaves deep in the undergrowth every few days no leaves at the top of the plant are affected I will check them in a few days and if it happens again I will take picture before I push them off well before they drop off

If they deep in the plant it very normal for them to die

I agree with burgertime without seeing your lighting, though it's not bad, I think you should still address the issue with a shot of Mg and Mn, many products out there have both in them along with Fe. Your next water only, give them a dose without any nitrogen. And put some more dirt in that pot, cover those roots up.

It seems to be the old fan leaves the largest ones and I give mg about 2 weeks ago the plant is looking abit of a ligter green towards the top of the plant its under 600 w hps so I'm thinking not enough nitrogen dont wantto start adding loads of supplements i will up nitrogen next water see how she goes

Also doing a lot of researching on net iron deficiency starts yellowing but the leaves veins stay green that's not happening the whole leaf is yellowing also it says new leaves will lack chlorophyl and turn yellow this isn't happening to new leaves its happening to older large leaves and a few odd little leaves deep in the plant

Like I said, I haven't seen your lighting but that could be the reason as well. I wouldn't worry too much about it, these plants are tuff, you should be fine. This plant has been in this 3gal. pot for about a month now and it still has one of the trimmed leaves from when it was cloned.

It's normal. Also your roots are fine like that. Some people let their roots be exposed on purpose. Their called "air roots" and add strength to the stalk of your plant.
