Maybe nitro deficient but not sure

Ok well this has been happening for the past two weeks now, I'm watering every morning around 7, but i has been pretty hot where i live.
I nutrient feed them every other week with ph balanced water, but normally it just comes straight out of the hoes into a watering can.
Any ideas what this might be? it's happening to two plants, the third pic is of the second plant. the first two are the same.

It kinda looks like a N def on the leaves higher up, but the ones near the bottom look like my outdoor ones do when its not getting enough sunlight. Looks like the plant is just sucking it dry and dropping it since its not gettin much use from them. Maybe those leaves arent getting enough sunlight throughout the day?

they are in full light from 7 am to around 6pm, but it's the browning all along the leaves that make me think it's not just Nitro Def

if they are in bloom this is normal. when your plant starts to bloom it is actually starting to die and the buds are using all the nutrients in those fan leaves to make buds! it looks like the only thing turning yellow are the fan leaves if this is the case it is normal,but if the lower bud sites start to die then it is something else.

and another thing is when your plants are in bloom they will quit using nitrogen all together but not usually tell about 3 or 4 weeks into bloom

i thought it was natural, but i've never had a plant yellow so much so fast. it just had me worried a little. I've never it yellow to the top, unless it was like two days away from harvest. That first plant is, I'd say 2 weeks into flower

It's natural, because Nitrogen is so damn mobile in outdoor topsoil.

Honestly, you can leave it alone. 90% of the outdoor growers do.

But there is a small percentage of us outdoor growers, myself included,who sometimes add N. MJ uses just as much- if not, more- nitrogen during flowering as vegging. You'll get a much bigger yield.


One shot of it would be alright at this stage, with a side of PK, based on your pictures.

I've noticed a straight Nute burn is just turns straight brown and crispy. but like the guys have been saying, the leaves slowly yellow and fall off due to the nitro being used up and moved.
I'm going to start giving my girls alittle nitrogen supplement, every other day and see if things stay the same.
