Near Harvest Heat Stress, P def?

I have an autoflower space with 3 plants going at day 76.

5 days ago they were beautiful, but since then

  • they have been drinking less (they were drinking every 2 days, now its 4 days and still the medium is partially heavy), and

  • a very few colas have dark purple leaves or darkening.

  • Also, i I dont know if its my paranoia, but the trichomes seem to be shrinking or be less shiny.

Any ideas appreciated :slight_smile:

Sounds to me like she is going into senescence, harvest is right around the corner.

Thanks @ReikoX !!

I hope so! I thought senescence signs only appear after flushing - does senescence happen even without flush? (im not flushing)

If so, im going to harvest this weekend., most trichomes are cloudy with very few amber. If i dont cut this weekend I would have to wait 15 more days and I think that would be too much.

Agreed.

OP, most plants toward the end of flower usually start looking a little rough. There’s not much you can do about it and it’s the buds we’re after anyway, not the leaf.

P deficiency is rare. Actual deficiencies of any kind are rare. Most Cannabis nutrients have plenty of P. I don’t see anything to worry about. Plants look fine.

I don’t flush either and even with normal strength flowering nutrients most plants will start to fade anyway.

Yep, I agree with Vernal for once (just teasing). :grin:

I see no yellowing but vivid colours, burnt tips and dark blotches, I would go for nutrient excess, flushing would be a good idea in this case … beer3|nullxnull
