yellow on a few lower buds-coco grow

[Relentless]

ph is 5.7-5.9, same with runoff.. ppm is 850.. plants are on week 4 of flower.. vegd 24" above soil and then flipped.. 3gal pots..
cutting back from 2 feedings a day to 1 for another week or so bc 2 seemed too muchbc they werent dryin out.

edit: this is a lower nug.. top nugs closer to the light arent doing this so its not the light being too close.

im getting ready to to switch to coco too so i dont know shit yet but is it possibly the calcium thing? or are they shaded out. they look fairly healthy but the color does look a little light. good luck. i mainly posted so i can follow but that was just a thought. its probably not it because cal because it seems like it starts in the fans usually.

I think it might be from a little overwatering.. i didnt do the typical morning watering and now the tops look noticeably dry.. not too much so, plants still feel heavy.. but i think im going to skip watering today and go to 1 watering a day starting tomorrow until they loook like they need 2 a day.

dry plants with wet soil equals unrooted medium. i think you are right to hold off. give those roots a reason to grow. let em find the water. i think that is the learning curve of coco from what im reading. learning to water for optimum root balls then go to multifeed after they push roots through and get that root bound thing that soil gardeners avoid and hydro gardeners rely on for constant feeding requirements. are you doiing a grow journal. id love to check it out. im nervous about my switch but im going for it.

They N hungry it looks like bro, bump up the ph a lil. Let it swing up to 6.1-6.3......At the beginning of flower I try to keep the ph a lil on the upper end since they need that extra N at the beginning of transition. IMHO.

Could be soggy spots in the pots too from overwatering like others said. One thing forsure you can adjust is the ph.

i really appreciate the help guys.. def need it bc i saw another plant had the same yellowing lower bud on her this morning..

Dud.... don't ignore it bro

Those little tiny ass green pointy leaves... are a huge indicator of DUDDING ... you don't have to believe me...just take pics of the whole plant or wait a few weeks and you'll see...

What does dudding mean. A bad plant or hermie?

 

[Storm Shadow]

Infection from Broad Mites... It ruins genetics ... it spreads to other plants rather easily and it has various degrees of damage... once you've seen it enough... u can spot it early in flowering..... these days I can even tell from Veg... only if its a strain you've ran for a while and know what it looked like pre-infection

 

[Relentless]

hmm i dunno if its a dudd.. im running two diff strains and neither have done this.. but both have it right now. ive run both for years.. very odd for them to just both get it all of the sudden..

Ive had a dudd before, sour dubb.. and it didnt have much aroma or anything.. this stuff reaks. i just chopped both strains(the exact mother of the strains Im running in coco) but these were in soil.. literally chopped last weekend and both plants were perfect..

i guess we'll see if it continues..

 

[Storm Shadow]

There are a few different stages of DUD... not all of them are full blown DUD
If you've grown these genetics b4 and have never seen this... I wouldn't rule it out so fast

There are indicators which point in the DUD direction... Never seeing something b4 on a strain you know well and those little light green pointy leaves

storm shadow- thx for weighing in on this..
just edited my post before, heres what i put..

i just chopped both strains(the exact mother of the strains Im running in coco) but these were in soil.. literally chopped last weekend and both plants were perfect..

nvm yellowing is on one strain and i noticed those pots are much heavier then the rest.. pretty sure its overwatering.. thanks!

DUD m8 broad mites !! can the DUDing be carried over to seed ? LOL

 

[scuba80]

did you sort the duding out can the duding be carried over to your seeds ???

 

[Relentless]

scuba80-wtf is ur problem? u must really hate life..

u keep pming me saying my plants are dudds and so are my seeds and that you are going to tell everyone.. u keep asking me if the dudd can carry over to the seeds.. then u say ive heard it carries over to the seeds.. then u say u know it carries over to the seeds.. LOL LOL LOL LOL
look at my threads chump..
this is my first run with coco and i get 1 plant that has a little yellowing bc of overwatering and u assume all of this bs.. I ran multiple plants of the same pheno with no other problems.. I never had any yellowing like this..GTFO of here dude
