Yellow leaves and tips

Hello all.
Im a couple days away from week 8 of flowering.
Is it normal to have yellow leaves and burnt tips?

Colors often fade in late flowering.

I agree with Midwestguy. I have three plants left in the tent all at 9 weeks of flower. Two are all green still and the Acapulco Gold is nearly all yellow. Same food and everything. Some just go yellow at the end. I assume that where the Gold comes from so I embraced it.

There might be some pH or PPM problems with the tips burning, but being so close to harvest, I’m not sure that it is worth addressing. Others may have a different opinion.

I gave up a long time ago trying to grow a perfect pretty plant.
Mine sometimes look like absolute crap by the time harvest arrives, But the buds always are fine. I think the struggles of the plant at the end just benefit the resin production. SO I let it happen happily.

Thanks. Ive had a good grow through out. The weather here in ohio has been rain and all day fog. My humidity went from high 30%to low 40% to high 50%. I have it hanging around 45% humidity with the blower on high and my heat in the grow room at 70 degrees. I was just making sure the weather wasnt being a issue.

Plants definitely do there on thing. 8 plants in my grow presently and 2 are yellow 6 are green with no color change 2 are leafy and colas are completely different from anything I’ve seen. Genetics I assume?

Not much nutritional value left in them. Its up to you. She is done with them. I, personally, do. It makes me feel good when i can peak at them and all looks healthy and well taken care of. I know i did everything i could to be successful. Its up to you. I definitely would before they fall off and rest on your medium though. Youre so close now! Congratulations growmie!!!

Generally, if you pull on them and they come right off, you should be fine. Youre really close to the end now, so either decision you make will be the right one.

Thanks again

Buds look great. There’s not much you can do now as im sure you’re just giving them water at this point. Looks like you have a great harvest on your hands.

Thanks again.

SOP for me…I leave those leaves and add to them…mulch for the critters!
Just sayin mulch is a wonderful thing and what better than the same plant as mulch. Recycling and all.

Id think if you have a really good microbial life in your soil this would be ok. I thought i read that it can invite bugs, decay, and mold easier so to avoid letting it just lay on your soil.
