Plant has been doing great. Healthy, Flowering nicely. Very green new leaves.

Has been in Ocean Forest soil for 6 weeks. Should be ready for harvest in 3 or 4 weeks. Ferted once with 1/4 strength 3 days ago. Does not look like fert. burn to me. Only the older, smaller fan leaves under the main canopy are affected. Turned lime green with brown areas on leaves. Any ideas? Deficiencies? Natureal causes?
Thanks,
Eggbert

Well, I "myself" have had problems ALL the time in the middle of flowering bro! It seems to me, well the only things I have noticed is, the Foxfarm line doesn't have enough if any, cal-mag in it! I use the Foxfarm line up as well! The soil,nutes, whole 9 yards! And every time, middle flowering I have cal-mag
Def!! So I just started adding cal-mag to all my water jugs & hit them with it almost every time I water/feed um! Now, all of my problems are gone! Unless I have something else going on! What type of nutrients are you using? What's your water ph?

looks to me like you need some cal-mag (for the browning). The leaf is also light green like the plant is pulling nutes out of it which may or may not be an issue depending on how you like to nute and flush (or not) during flowering which is all personal preference. Give some light nutes to make it green or dont and watch how the plant uses what its has stored up on its own for this moment which, is something I enjoy seeing.

Thanks,
1st feeding three days ago 1/4 strength MG 4-12-4. Plant had been so healthy, i did not think it would ever need nutes. My thoughts were the same as yours. A manganese deficiency??? Did not know how to fix. Will get some cal-mag at the local Nute Shop. I very much appreciate your help

One G-13 kush fem. 30" tall and LST'd slightly. 2' X 3' grow area. CGL's. Have a bunch of 2700K and two 6500K (for more spectrum) for a total of around 15,000 lumens kept within 2" to 4" of plant. Probably more light than sufficient for my small grow (3 big buds were all male)

10 - 26 watters for a total of 260 watts.
That leads to another question. What is more important? Watts? Lumens? This is only my 2nd grow. The local helpful grower told me it was "all in the lumens". I am sure it is a debateable statement.

10-26 watters total = 260 watts. This is my 2nd go around. This leads to another question. Watts or Lumens. Which is most important. The local grow guy said:"It is all in the lumens." I am sure that is debateable. Whats your thought?

lumens are debateable, yes, they measure the intensity of a light source, it is what we see but plants grown under 100 lumens will always be smaller than plants under 10000 lumens. i dont know how number of watts will help you. on a sunny day outside there is 30000 - 140000 lux (lumens per sq metre)
