well, a handful of plants started showing some signs of nitro def 11 days ago. Watered them at first with mexican bat guano 10-2-1, next watering was plain water, watering after that was mexican guano (3tablespoons per gal) 10-2-1, after that plain water, and then a dose of Fox Farm grow big 6-4-4 (3 teaspoons per gal) two days ago. Plants look even worse today, lot of dead and dying leaves were pulled out the the flower tent today. :wall:

what can be done to help them? adding nitrogen to the nitrogen def, didn't seem to help at all......

Leaves are going to die. The plant is getting to the end of its life cycle so it using up all the stored food in those leaves and those will die and fall off. The plant looks great your getting close to harvest i would say another 2 weeks or so. Keep up the good work and just relax

31 days into flowering. fuck....... i don't think it's over nuting. i've been real good to these girls as far as not overdosing em....

when i switched to 12/12 i switched to the fox farm big bloom, which was stupid cause i should have given them more nitrogen in the stretch than P&K. any mR. Ganja's have anything to say????

I am at the same point and my buds are no bigger than quarters...
yours looks worlds better.
What is your cycle for clone veg and bloom?
Also how did you trim/train your plants?

light flush with ph'ed water until runoff is almost where you want it........ looks like over watering to me......

But on a side note........

Losing those leaves wouldn't be a bad thing...... just pluck them off after they are completely yellow...... some plants just naturally use older fan leaves as extra energy stores of sugars to turn into chlorophyll (more buds/plant material/new growth)...... remember what I said about doctoring? About nute solutions and water changing biologically After it hits the media, and how that needs to be addressed by changing your water/solution variables to counter balance your media culture to provide a healthy Micro break down and Macro nute uptake environment, while flushing away potentially unhealthy deposits ;)

fuck dude if mine look worlds better than i feel for you. my girls are fuckin dying here. i'm gonna flush i think and try to get the ph runoff down to 6.8....

plants were vegged for 4 weeks, couple of plants were topped, 1 lollipopped. i wanted to just let them do their thing so i could get a feel for these new pheno's i'm growing. i'll be taking cuttings once a month, while another set of clones will be two weeks vegged, another set 2 weeks into flower, another 6wks into flower. perpetual with 10-15 plants per month....
