Hey gang. I’ve had a really good grow with this ilgm auto but nearing the end, this is happening. Week 7 of flower approx. Fox farms soil blend, light nutes throughout. Fox farm trio every other watering at most following schedule at 2/3 of recommended amount. Molasses occasionally. PH soil is 7. Last runoff was 6.7. In my grow room there is a GSC extreme getting the same care pretty much. No yellowing leaves, no issues like this lady. I don’t wanna blow it so close to harvest. Any thoughts? Seems like nite lockout to me from my research but I’m a bit baffled. Buds looking good to me but what do I know? Second grow guy. Trying to finish well this time. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/d/9/9/d9904ff7916edb5ae2c09f9982b301aafffa5696.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/4/7/c/47caae94a686a441028f6490849898a2b7c4498e.jpeg) ---

Also, I’ve done a bit of defoliation obviously. : ) ---

I see no white pistils on that bud. You are close to being done I would think. At this point the plant will begin to yellow and consume itself no matter how much you feed it. What do the trichomes look like? ---

Trichomes are all clear currently. ---

I would check runoff ppm of straight ph water if way high flush if depleted I would add cal mag because it looks a little like both but don’t panic and overdo things and she should still give you some good smoke ✌ ---

Sparky, would calmag at this close to harvest be ok? In your opinion? ---

Runoff ph is 5.5. Hmmm ---

At 5.5 the plant isn’t eating anything which will resemble a lock out. Feeding it anything now won’t fix the problem. Do you have info on the pH/PPMs in and out over the **last few watering/feedings**? Also any close up pics of the trichomes? Depending on how close you are to harvesting it might not be worth trying to fix. ---

No other runoff readings currently. Been ph “ing” my water at 6.5, feeding as stated in earlier posts. Just did a semi flush to get that runoff reading. Pot is very heavy. Trichomes seem young and clear. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/0/6/7/067280a15e940048c3ae96fdb19b102463c5a4db.jpeg) ---

I was talking ppm that’s a way to tell how much food is left in your soil they are $10 on Amazon and also a great tool for flushing if that’s your intention you are right on that window I don’t ph my runoff unless I have a problem if it were my plant if ppm were above 2000 I would flush if it was low below 1000 I would give full dose of cal mag and see how she responds either way you should get a respectable harvest and maybe think about adding a soil microbe too help everything in fox farm soil it will make ph a less of an issue I’ve done a dozen grows in fox farm soil and your outgoing Ph isn’t bad in. My grows using this soil every time just stay close to 6.5 going in hope this helps ✌Ps microbes if you choose next grow won’t help much This grow ---
