Pound Dawg Week 11...Home Stretch?
Took this pic this morning. Today is week 11. I was concerned about the increasing yellowing on the leaves. AI said...
"At week 11, based on this photo, the yellowing looks much more like normal late-flower senescence than a problem that needs correcting.
What stands out:
- The older/lower fan leaves are yellowing heavily, while much of the bud foliage remains green/purple.
- Many leaves are naturally drying and fading as the plant finishes.
- The flowers themselves look quite mature and well developed.
- I don't see an obvious reason to try to force the plant back to dark green at this stage.
Given that you recently switched to water-only, I would not try to reverse the yellowing by adding a heavy nutrient dose now. At this stage, fading leaves aren't necessarily a sign that something is going wrong.
The one thing I'd watch closely is the dense interior of the larger buds. With this much mature flower and some dying foliage, inspect for any gray/brown areas, unusually soft tissue, or a musty smell—those would be more concerning than the yellow leaves.
So, in short: I wouldn't fight the yellowing. The plant looks like it's finishing rather than crashing."
Thoughts?
