Hey guys i am currently growing an auto strain(link in sig) and am down to my final weeks until harvest(about 3 to be exact) and have encountered yellowing curling up fan leaves which most on these websites are saying was a Ph problem. I had one even say to buy lime-rite pellets. I bought Lime-rite and come to find out i hear its very slow acting and after you spread it you cant fertilize anymore. So i am stuck not fertilizing my plants. The thing i find strange is all during veg i used bottled spring water(tested to have a ph of about 7) and then throughout flower until the other day i have been using tap water and my plants showed no sign of any ph problems. I have a liquid ph test kit and it looks like the tap water i use is about 6.8. I would never check the ph when i nuted my plants. But tell me what u guys think i should do to Ph my plants right so no more leaves die. I have 3 weeks left and was thinking about just watering them with tap for a week and a half and the last week and a half water them with tap + clearex. All input would be helpful.....thanks

You will get this yellowing during the final 4 week nothing to worry about,plant pulling all the left over nitrogean from the plant.ask for a ph kit that goes down to 5.0 this will help you when it comes to flushing looks like you bought one of the higher grade ones but you wanna be looking around the green area this should be fine but make sure it is the same every time or you will get ph fluxtuation.
