My plant is doing great except for the leaves at the top of some of the stocks are turning yellow. My plant is toped and it has over 32 main tops and is now o the 24 days of budding. It seems like one of the main tops is a good healthy green while the other is a light green and basically yellow. I am using fox farm bloom nutrients at the momemnt and if there is any advice on why my plant is turning yellow, it would be deeply appreciated

Well from what i heard ur only suppose to give it more nitrogen if it were the leaves at the bottom of the plant turning yellow but the leaves that are turning yellow are the fan leaves at the top of the plant

big bloom is just a catalyst, you need to get more of a "complete" food. Don't believe the hype that you have heard about N in flowering. Also I would get them fed quick cause bb is weak as hell and your gonna get more yellowing very soon..

if the big leafs show sintoms of defiency/sobrefertilization then the problem should be the big nutrients (n-p-k)
if the sintoms shows in the smaller leafs, the problem is in the micronutrients (calcium, zinc, magnesium). i would just water the plants with diatom earh.
i use a lot of N during flowering especially with sativas who likes little ammounts of N but almost periodically, or plants like 2046 from medical seeds use a lot of N during flower if not, youll probably loose a lot of leafs the first weeks of flowering.
cheers

Ya its fox farms veg food, great shit... That is the veg food I use. Upping the bigbloom won't really do much, get the grow big and feed with 1-2 teaspoons per gallon

I would keep giving bb, look at bb as more of an additive then a food. Helps roots and such. the 2 together work great. Just make sure you cut the bb down to like 1 tablespoon per gallon
