Here I have a plant that has just been getting worse and the only thing I know for sure from research and online know it alls is that there is something wrong and it could be anything. No one ever really seems to have a direct answer but just rather ask unrelated questions to seem knowledgeable. All of my numbers are Ideal. Ppm ph and temps. Using fox farm trio with some others. Have been flushing and doing everything by the book. Any thoughts.

Those look nicely faded. Mine look fucked. First grow and worried I’ll loose the plants

Given that all of your numbers are in range, it is difficult to figure out what is going on. I grow in 10 gallon fabric using Roots Organic Original soil.

As Scotty on Star Trek would say (kinda), “She’s giving her all she’s got Capt”.
Plants are using all their resources to provide you with the best buds possible.

How far along into flower? Can you tell the strain at least?
All of the questions are to help man, not to “sound knowledgeable”… there are tons of variables that go into this, it’s not a one size fits all recipe…

Have you used the FF Sledgehammer to flush? It’s on their feed schedules, maybe it could help more then……
Spitballing questions to figure out a growers environment helps us analyze a situation we don’t have access to. Maybe a little patience and less frustration could help you get the help you need?

Yeah i flushed with sledgehammer. I’m not frustrated. But you should know exactly what I mean about people on forms and blogs not really answering questions. Just kind of throwing out random info.

It can be frustrating. This is a pretty decent place to figure out your issues. Great group of growers in here.

Autos only take 10-14 weeks from start to finish. I know your frustration because you want the best for your girls. Autos are funny and I believe your at the end of your plants life cycle. Good luck wish you the best grow ever

Changes are slow and only look to your new growth to see the results of any modifications you make. Damaged leaves stay that way. Improvements will be seen at the new growth.

I haven’t noticed any new growth. Probably for a week or two. The problem I’m having is not knowing what changes to make because it could be so many different things

I’ll give all my actual numbers and new pictures as soon as the lights come on.

With you being in flower currently there won’t be much new growth to watch, you look like your stretch is mostly complete and your bud stacking. But this experience will make you more cognitive for the next grow. Depending on how many weeks into flower you are and the specific strain the yellowing could just be her natural fade away. Consuming herself. So many deficiencies also show the same signs as excesses. It’s tough to read them in the beginning. You’ll get this.
This group of growers love team success. Post your details for a better analysis.

That is a very smooth fade. Far into flower. If all your numbers are in line. The plants have been healthy all the way, then I wouldnt worry. Unless clones even the same pack of beans can produce wildly different plants. I have some fade, some not. Some stretch and some stay short. Ruderalis upsets the original genetics and shows itself in different ways.
Here are 2 Alien Goo. Same batch. Planted same day. Popped together.
1 went vertical early and flipped to flower. 1 is staying in veg.
That being said, a grow, even of the same auto, can vary plant to plant.
You are looking fine from here. I would keep doing what you are doing. No new growth from here on but flower. Here is a photo of what you want flower top to look like. Shows strong flower bulking. Solid uptake.
Nice and green tips.

I am sure a mod will combine them. Happens a lot with new growers. We all get worried with our first children and seek quick answers. Stay with us Austin. Dont get discouraged. All of us here are here to help.
