My friend has a plant he's growing for research purposes =D Anyway after it started to bud the bottom leaves began to yellow and fall off.
I have pics but cant post yet because I've never posted a URL pic but will do this evening. It's a very vibrant plant and is blooming like CRAZY its grown 6 inches in 2 weeks the top is beautiful and the bottom is kicking the bucket
 
Please post a pic, it would really help.

This is how you do it:

Put your image url between image tags like this
. An example would look like this: [img ]http://website.com/exampleimage.jpg[/img]

Yellowing leaves at the bottom sounds like N deficiency, in which case you should just use a dose of a good organic grow fertilizer before continuing with a bloom fertilizer throughout the flowering period (take care not to over-fertilize though). Really we need a pic to say for sure though.

"My friend" and "swim" posts are not allowed here. We know it's you so don't bother.

As for the yellowing leaves, there can be many reasons. Yes, a nitrogen deficiency is one. The other is that cannabis plants are annuals which means they only flower once, then die. As the plant reaches maturity it will put all of its energy into the bud and take energy from the leaves as part of its reproductive cycle. If proper fertilization, lighting, and water are accounted for, then it might just be nature taking its course.

If it were leaves all over the plant turning yellow then that would indicate a deficiency but the bottom leaves are typically the most expendible as the plant matures.
 
sorry bout that I will always respect the rules here so I will change the post and word accordingly. Secondly I really appreciate the advice and the N is the problem and again I apologize for the mishap.
