yellowing buds...

[optimal]

i have one plant, which i'll try to get pics up asap...
its a northern lights.
that started yellowing from the leaves then went to the buds and now theres a small area of yellowing in the bud as well...

its 6 weeks into flowering, never had this happen before, no bugs, not mold, can n def cause this? these are root bound, but needed to be as im running a sog, to make the best of my space.

also should note after about 5 weeks of flowering i defoliated the plants to expose more light to the buds.

ooooooh,

You might have killed the food source via the leaves, as far as I have read in the defolliation thread it should be done during veg, but hey.

I say if she is 6 weeks in chop and smoke man,I never seem to fix and issue if its that far in and my logic is that if you get it to heal by the time the plant heals its issue its time to harvest and the buds have not developed correctly coz the plant was busy fixing itslef, (imho)

Let us know.

Namaste

Agreed with Dannyboy, this far in just chop and smoke. Besides, without opening the whole can-o-worms, it should be pointed out that many people think that N starved cannabis tastes better. They do it to commercial tobacco so it must be good.

i belive some of the problem was being burnt from bein too close to the light, but possibly n deficency as well, i just cut off the yellowing/burned bud & gonna let em go another couple weeks
