Nitrogen deficiency is one that makes the leave turn yellow, it's the most common as well.

thanks will have to look into how to fix this

those are looking really nice man. Did you consider checking ph? Ph deficiency can affect the nutrient uptake.

Ph is probably to high in your soil because it looks like lockout. Are you letting your water sit out over night to help dissipate chlorine? Also are you on public water or well water? What nutes are you running and what ph is the water when feeding?

The plant is starving. Get it some nitrogen.

how do you get em so symmetrical and bushy, mine are like all over the placee

That is dyna-gro grow and protekt. They are 8$ each. Soil has food in it, but it needs more. If you have made it this far with just tap water, then ph isn't your problem.

View attachment 2393155to get them bushy i only let the clones get about three inches high in a solo cup then trasplanted to 5 gal bucket and kept light about a foot off top.have light on 20hr off 4. used to grow northern lights and hashplant back in the early 90s, but those plants seemed to be alot more durable then today,s hybreds. didnt think about the water when i first started used to live in the sticks and had well water but yes i let it sit before useing it. used miricle grow potting soil and dirt 5050 mix they were doing fine till about a two weeks ago . was goin to clone and cut them back to 1212 but want to bet them back to norm first thanks for the suggestions will keep you posted

A Nitrogen deficiency will begin at the bottom of a plant and progress upwards in time , your lower leaves still look green , and the most deficient nutrient besides Nitrogen shown is Magnesium as its tie dyed looks indicate such as well as the necrosis beginning on the leaf tips due too pH , it actually could be the begining of a lockout but on the lower end , dont listen to those who say the Ph is high , the leaves would twist and contort and Iron deficiency would be very obvious with no color in the growing tips if the Ph was over 7.5 .. Drop below 6.2 with that soil and its low end lockout ... I think your Ph is right around 6.2 by looking and if it continues to drop the roots and leaves will burn and die in no time at all

I would make sure to maintain a proper Ph and see if you can get a reading of your soil , Miracle Grow Soils are known for there poor quality .. Might want to avoid using such in the future and youll see less of this issue ..

I say you have time to get them back on track but youll need to add feed and maintain a proper Ph to allow the plants to uptake nutrients as its obvious your soil has nutrients but the plants are not taking them up at this time , hence the begining of a lower end lockout ....

pH lockout, I would guess your pH is a little bit higher than what PPS has said. You really need to figure out what your stable pH is, and a little N will not hurt her either.

regards,

I see a crispy yellow leaf at te bottom. Start simple. Get the plant a good balanced food with plenty of nitrogen. Ph has never been a huge issue in soil for me. Regardless, the plants are in 5 gallon buckets so they will need some help eventually. The dynagro will pull your ph down when added to the water. 2 birds, 1 stone
