when plants finish they stop metabolizing and die eventually. Before they die, they yellow.
Nutrient, ph, temp, rh, changes can make this happen also.

Ouch man, you revegged your plants aswell as them having heat stress. Your probably gonna be looking at a room of hermied plants here soon. GET OUT!

I believe not all plants hermie when stressed. I also believe certain breeders test genetics of plants by stressing them and then keep the ones that don't hermie for future plants. I believe that we should believe that belief of believing is just psychobabble about beliefs.

I think your looking at the wrong things. If you stress the fuck out of a plant like that, its PROBABLY gonna hermit. Probably...which is what I said. Go believe in the magical stoner wizards somewhere else. Most breeders are pollen chuckers.

first confirm your fertilizers match these numbers
base 4-0-0
grow 2-2-4
bloom 0-6-6

if that all is right then



botanicare kind mixing instructions

veg
full strength per gallon

Base 6mls
grow 9mls
bloom 3mls

bloom option 1 (first half)
full strength per gallon
base 6mls
grow 3mls
bloom 9mls

bloom option 2 (optional; for late bloom to leach N)
full strength per gallon
base 6mls
bloom 9mls

you don't need anything more, no need for calmag or Epsom salt or silica your fertilizer is good but the mixing instructions suck

but its a nice fertilizer containing ample amounts of calcium and magnesium which is great

for youngsters start plants with half strength bloom option 1 when fertilizer is required

for a slightly higher EC/PPM mix it the same way with slightly less water
for a slightly lower EC/PPM mix it the same way with slightly more water

manage the reservoir

EC/ppm goes down ph goes up/ raise EC/ppm
EC/ppm goes up ph goes down/ lower EC/ppm

best of luck with your next grow

if you take my mixing suggestions youll be much much happier

I've stressed a plant or two and the magical stoner wizard's theories held true. Otherwise, it would all just be poppycock, now wouldn't it?

Well thank you all for the advice and tips.
Yes they were heat stressed and yes they started reveg but all this happened at least 4 weeks ago.
They yellowing wasn't due to my tds meter being off and needing calibration.
It was reading high and wI fey was not adding nutes to top offs when needed. She was just using water. So her nutes were dropping little by little and the tds pen was lying.
Got the pen calibrated after using a different tbs pan and finding she over 400 ppm lower then she was used to for some time before we figured it out.
She has bounced back and now just waiting to see how bad the final product will be.
First time reveg and heat stressed a plant so it'll be interesting to see the end result.

Thanks again everyone!
