Leaves yellowing then withers and die

Hi,

This is my second grow. It is WhiteWidow x BigBud from female seeds.

So this started during the flowering stage, i am aware that lower leaves are supposed to yellow and die during flowering stage, but this seems excessive. Also its not just the lower leaves it also happens in the middle of the plant as well.

They should have around 5-6 weeks left before harvesting. If this continues, i doubt there will be any leaves left.

Every 3-4 days i fill 2 liters of water and fill it with 2ml biobizz grow, 5ml biobizz bloom and 2ml biobizz top-max. Sometimes i mix in a little cal and mag as well. Then i distribute it among my 4 plants, for they get 1/4 each.

They are growing in biobizz allmix soil.

The 3rd image is a very good sized handful leaves that i gather every 3-4 day.

How often are your feeds? Every watering with nutes could be the problem. Lockout, you might need to flush, I water every other. If you do flush, go back to the regular schedule water then nutes and water. 1 Tbs of unsulphurated is suppose to add weight In the last couple weeks before harvest.

Thanks guys. I tried giving them less neuts and then none at all. It seems to have helped. It has probably cost me some grams in the finished product, but at least it now seems like they will still be alive to harvest :)

That yellowing is the transfering of nitrogen from old to new growth. Those really do look good, no necrosis just yellow leaves. Don't change your total PPM's just increase your percentage of grow vs boom. Maybe go 4ml grow and 3ml bloom. Should take about a week to stop the yellowing. It will start to slow in a couple days.

Not sure i'm reading this right.... 1/2 liter per plant every 4 days?...When in mid-bloom? Are you sure they aren't dry at the bottom of the pots and that would be why they aren't feeling so good?

Yeah i'm sure. The leaves get droopy if i don't water them enough. Its easy to tell and the one thing i'm 100% clear on :)
