Growing

Post by skilth/karlos »

Hi guys,

Have 3 little AK-47 Lowriders on the go outside and to be fair their doing extremely well, They have a decent hight and are filling out with leaves very nicely.... Only problem at the moment is that some of the leaves towards the bottom are beginning to turn yellow, do i need to pull these leaves off inorder to allow the new growth of other leaves?

Thanx in advance :D

Don't pull them off, they are a valuable resource for the plant.

The yellowing is the plant showing signs of nitrogen deficiency. It takes the nitrogen from the lower leaves because it does not have access to enough through the roots.
