Lost my circulation fan to electronic failure (should have gotten the oldschool kind without the electronics)--and unfortunately the only other fan I have handy is a box fan, which doesn't really fit anywhere. Using it as best I can though.
Leaves are showing some stress... not sure what's going wrong exactly, but I got a lot of yellowed leaves after it wilted when the fan failed and they needed watering. It is ALSO possible it was just nutrient burn, (or a nutrient lock out from salts more likely) as they had been fed the night before and were about due for a water flush.
Is it likely to just lose some leaves to heat stress in this way? I lost my circulation fan, not the exhaust fan. And the wilted bottom leaves stayed green at first, just wilted, then they went yellow while the rest of them perked back up. I thought it was nutrient burn so I flushed... but did not notice the fan right away I think.
Anyway, the buds are getting big and beautiful, I just hope I don't lose any more fan leaves. Here's a pic of what they looked like when I found the yellowed leaves. I trimmed all yellows and flushed the soil incase of salt buildup. I don't THINK i've seen any increase in yellowing since then. I left a few half-yellow leaves, and they appear to be staying that way for now.
Will take fresh pics when I take them out to water later.
These are from the other day when I first found the issue:
I still feel really good about these plants. The buds and upper leaves still look very healthy on each, but I lost several fan leaves. I'm sure this has nothing to do with the lighting, though. I am just an amateur is all. But if anyone wants to kick in a comment on what kind of ailment this looks like, feel free.
