Yellowing from the bottom up.

You’re good man. Feed it. It’s just used up the nitrogen in soil. Nitrogen deficiency is common due to stretch. Go ahead and give it veg nutes for a few feedings and I’m sure you’ll see some positive changes. Got to get on it now though..or next time you water is what I mean. you say you’ve never used the soil before but the plants have been in that soil for entire lifespan, correct?
No they were clones. I bought as teens and transplanted them

I bought them, transplanted them and a few days later flipped them. That was 3 weeks today
Ok well that’s means your soil has no food in it, bad ph or it’s locked out from overwater. Idk..perhaps the soaked bottom of pot is causing issue but really strange that your plant doesn’t show signs of overwater. With wet pot bottom the tops of plants will most always droop oddly..even when rest of plant isnt

You should have known the NPK of the soil - before using it.

That said. I have to grin at some of the answers you got.....

That's advanced P tox! To much P and to soon also...

Adding N won't fix that. Not at all.
Adding N might slow down the progression a bit but, NOT stop it or make it healthy.
Besides. High N in bloom reduces THC production by inhibiting trichome production..

Also its viagro the npk is like 0.1 - 0.06 - 0.01

Your right. I'm wrong!

The photo's are hard to read right....

No feeding?

Hit it with a stout N twice (like 9) and and run P and N at 6.

Now drop the N to 4 and run the NPK at 4-6-6

Next time? I'll pry my old ass eye's open and look better.....
For you? Feed it from the start.....

Water less/feed more got it. My next soil is prepped and waiting until after this one. I expect a significant improvement in the next one. Thanks everyone

And I’m laughing at your ridiculous answer. Had a real good belly chuckle over it. That’s not toxicity and a badly nitrogen deficient plant in early flower will benefit from a nitrogen boost unless you want tiny yields of crap buds that’ll struggle to make it to finish. It won’t effect trich production at all because he’s deficient as fuck. You never..and I mean never let your plant lose all the fan leaves to deficiency in earlY flower. You’re going to get someone to kill their plants, sparky. Keeping them green til later in flower is a good thing. Give it veg nutes for one feeding atleast...3/4 strength and next watering give it bloom at maybe half strength back to back feedings. First veg and then bloom next. Then bloom every other feeding all looks well

I'm going to let them totally dry out first I guess and wait and hope they make it the next five or so days. I just mixed up a heavy foliage spray and tried to spray just the stems and fam leavs a little.

Fox farms grow big is very fast acting. Greens quick but you’re not gonna save most of those leaves..it’s too late for a lot of them

A little molasses, epsom salt, superthrive, bonide calcium, and a little tiny bit of miracle grow 1-3-3 ph'd at 6.5

Better than nothing. They definitely want high N right now. They’ll make it 5 or so easily. They’ll ride on fumes for a good whileJust the sooner the better

Better read my follow-up, sport.

I hit it hard with the supertthrive
Basically SNAKE OIL..

IF your going to waste money on that shit. Only use it in veg. The only time it may have any real effect on the plant.

Ok guys so I waited 9 days to water and gave them a good dose of nutes. It has been 6 days since then and 2 are doing great. One is doing well but is still a yellow/green and the other 3 are still not doing well. I'm now week 4 of flower and they dont seem to be doing well. I was considering pulling these three, drying them and using them for whatever and getting 3 new teens and flipping them in their place. I will then have 3 to harvest in a few weeks and a few weeks after that I will have 3 more and so on and so forth. What do you guys think?
