So its getting closer to harvest time, probably let it go for another month about, but ive been noticing that some of the leaves are starting to get discoloured, not just at the bottom either. looks like all the cholorphyl has left some of them.

Not sure what it is, some sort of disease, a pest, or just natural process. Im hoping its just the plant using its own resources to feed the flowers, but im hoping someone else can give me an opinion on this.

heres some photos:

This is one of the lower leaves i trimmed off. As you can see its definitely not the normal green it should be. If you look closely you can see even though its discoloured there is even lighter almost white patches throughout.

This photo just gives you an idea the difference, theres also some necrotic (dying/dead) parts on this leaf, which seems to be starting on the other discoloured ones as well. none have died fully yet. You can also see some sort of web that some pest has left on one of the right leaves, not sure if this is related, havent seen really any bugs on the leaves at all.

And a little treat, hehe. Some of the lower buds have been turning purple due to some lower temperatures we had come around.

Thanks for any input :)
 
another month will really make this plant gorgeous. it's already really pretty. but another month will see the buds get fatter and more frosty.

about the leaves...this sort of dying off of lower leaves happens regularly with plants in their late stages. trim them. get rid of dying leaves. i did. it helped. don't worry about them so much.

IMO, letting the plants flower as long as they can before the trichomes turn too amber is the best way to get KNOCKOUT chronic.

have you thought about drying/curing? what are you planning?

oh yeah, by the way, there is a better website for this question...not to hate on BL. www.rollitup.org is the best online pot-growing forum i know of. i'd go search around their archives and i bet u find your answers there as well...if not, you'll def find out some other useful info.
 
You don't have to trim it the plant use's the energy it can get from them still. It is better to let them fall of by themselves.
