Nitrogen Deficiency,
For any more detailed diagnostic, more information on them is required.
Pot size, or directly in ground? Age? Have you been feeding? Do you know the strain?
But at a glance definitely a Nitrogen deficiency, AT LEAST.

they are in 7gal plastic grow bags and have been outside since may. and started in april. I have been feeding them however since flowering started I have been using adv nut Big Bud along with a nitrogen supplement and it hasnt seemed to have made a difference. (maybe I just havent hit them hard enough??) The strain is called R2. this is a pic of one of my healthy plants that is directly in the ground IMG_2850.jpg

You should have been feeding it all along, not just at flowering. As Nugz observed it is a definite Nitro def. I would go with a veg formula until the color returns, and then go back to bloom foods. Good luck.

Looks to me like it needs N and just a touch of K to address those few brown spots on the leaves. However, since it's already into flower I wouldn't worry too much about the N. Boost the K a little and let nature do its thing. Sometimes the most deficient looking plants yield the best smelling and tasting fruits.

R2 i think is a local strain of some sort. I have never seen seeds advertised but there always seem to be ample clones around in the spring. It produces the most crystal I have ever seen on buds and has been called zombie weed on more then one occasion...

I was giving them all a veg formula up until aug when I hit them with bud blood and then switched to the Big Bud. I have also been giving them a tblsp of molasses in each gal of water..

depends on how you administer the food. if you foliar spray, it could green em up in just a day or two. givum liquid feed and it can take a few days more. or you could top dress it and be extremely patient because it would be slow.

Yes as everyone has stated it a Nitro problem, you say you've given extra nitro BUT what is the PH value of the nutes/water ? You can give a plant as much nutes as you want but if it's not the right PH the plant WON'T ABSORB any of those nutrients..

NOT AN "N" PROBLEM!!!!!

Well everyone missed the ball on this one! You were fine until you hit it with the advanced nutrients CRAP! You have P&K toxicity!!!! It's like this....Bud Blood is 0-39-25 !!! Then your adding Big Bud and that's 0-1-3....Even though you are adding N it's been locked out out by the "death blood" shock treatment of P&K ratio's that I would never have added until the last 2 weeks b4 final wash....Even then care must be taken as P&K tox is still a problem if used beyond maybe 1 - 2 feedings and not in a row.

WASH with "salt" removing wash till liquid FLOWS from the pot (like a final wash or 1/4 strength BALANCED nute solution) and use a foliar. Restart feeding after pots dry to 1" deep...

Now then. Your N-P-K ratio for the first 3 weeks of flower should be around 3.4-2.6-3.4 (at my 24hrs of darkness in transition I might add 2ml of 0-7.2-5 and I mean NO MORE then 2ml !!!! to kick in the flowering hormones).......AFTER 3 weeks (and later and less ratio for sativa's) I'll bump my NPK to 3.4-9.8-8.5...

BUD BLOOD is ALL wrong for the start of flower as P&K ratio's of that strength tell the plant it's close to the end of life so it'll feed off it's self for the N.......Even during the last 2 weeks before wash when the plant will stop N uptake and just use the stored N in the plant, if you use a high P&K "bud booster" like that.

Advanced Nutrients is a RIP OFF!!!!!
Yeah,,their SHIT can work, BUT they say that this does that and so forth....and they lie on the FACTS. The whole while they have 3 different products in 3 ever smaller bottles. That increase A LOT in price as those bottles get smaller......Now guess what? The contents of each bottle is EXACTLY the same thing!!!!!! RIP OFF!!!!!

Wash - foliar - restart feeding when soil dries down to 1 inch deep....

Good Luck

Thank you very much.. When you say wash with salt do you mean an epsom salt solution? a teaspoon or two per gal of water ?
