Leaves starting to turn a pale Green ?

[JasonWr]

Hi there.........

 

i got 5 plants growing outdoors, that are halfway through flowering.......

 

up unto 2 weeks ago all the leaves were a nice lush green colour as they should be, but the last week ive noticed the leaves near the bottom of the plant and a little in the middle of the plant are starting to turn a plale green / yellow colour ?

 

what is the cause of this......i gave them some organic fertilzer about 3 weeks ago, maybe its time for some more Fertilizer ? ? ?

What do you think ?

 

P.S

 

only about 10% of the leaves are starting to turn this pale colur. the rest are still lush green..........

 

Ive attached a pic of a leaf that i took from my webcam.........

 

Not a very clear pic, but u might be able to see what im talking about.....

 

thanks

the pic dosent help much but it sounds like normal maturation, the shade leaves should yellow and die as the plant matures

totally normal as MADOGA said - if you are in the last half of flore. The bottom fan leaves will turn yellow and expell themselves off the plant - nearly all the leaves will do this at the end of flore, especially outdoors.

 

all though looking at pic ----being outdoor----- check for really really small sider mite on the bottom half of plant, is highly possible ---- and they are everywhere at moment.
