my girls are def gettin bigger. I had to move them. I do have a question about flowering: when it is in flower, does it need more/less/the same amount of sunlight as it did in vegetative? If I cut the sunlight down (for the different spot potentially) from maybe 8 hrs to 4 hrs, lets say, what would be the consequences so to speak with amount/size of buds?

More light=More bud, so it will moswt likely have an impact on yield...not to mention that trichome production is a means of defense from intense light, so the more light the more trichome production!

okay. One of my plants looks like she is really doing good. Her leaves look cocky, she's got pistols all over underneeath, and should become a flowering plant very soon I think.

The other, she is a light green (the other is good green collar), the pistil development seems to lack. Earlier in this topic I posted two pics of the yellow of the leaves on her, they have not changed. I am starting to think maybe the follow are wrong that you all mentioned:

Nitrogen Deficiency
Acidic Soil

I have reposted the pics, hope this helps. I gave it some Jack's classic tonight, will be monitoring in the next few days. Really need to buy some soil ph tester kit. What are they called exactly?

Hey thanks guys in advance!!!

Mix your jack's veg and bloom in a half and half for a super mix, it's on ther website, read uncle ben's thread on nitrogen def.

no fucking shit? I have the bloom booster, yay. Thats basically what I did today. Gave them some bloom booster, wasnt happy with the way the "poor" one looked. Mixed up some classic, and put her on.

thanks dixie!

try to get pix today, the one that is having problems does not have pistils on top, like the other one has, just discovered this morning. I am worried that she is dying or something, leaves once again are light than the good one. the amount of yellow leaves is still the same. like i said, try to get pix. is there anything in particular I need to get pix of? She has always had this problem, always been second best. Leaves always a light color. Pistils are not very strong on her, like I said in previous post. Any kind of info you can give me will be very appreciated! Anything at all.

heres some pics. holly is the first pic, helen is the second, the better looking one. I believe the third pic is holly, notice lack of developed pistils. the last three are all helen, I believe.

note: no. 5 is holly I believe, undeveloped looking.

The classic response to yellowing/chlorosis of the leaves is Nitrogen deficiency. But Nitrogen is not the only nutrient that helps in photosenthysis and making plants green. Magnesium deficiency also causes yellowing. If your nute solution is good on it's levels of nitrogen, then check and see if they have calcium and magnesium. Mag is a mobile nutrient, which means the new growth can pull it from the old growth; which is why your new growth looks better than the old. Your plants should not be turning yellow this early into flowering. Check the pH of your water also. Nitrogen uptake occurs at a wider range of pH than Magnesium does. A higher pH will allow the uptake of Magnesium. An adjusting range of pH is the best way to allow plants to uptake all essential nutrients,as long as your nutes contain those. Check the box/can/bag or whatever and see if it has Calcium and Magnesium, then go from there.

Is this too much water? leaves are yellow at bottom half.

How's your drainage? Overwatering would cause the plant to look droopy.
