[surf4life181]

These girls have beenbudding sence december first and they seem to have a bunch of yellow leaves. The places where flowers have formed still look green and nice. The buds also seem small? Is this normal?

You should have some leaves dying off by now... Buds will not look too too big yet. I actually started flowering on the 2nd of december. Check out my journal for pics showing the progress.

I thought the same thing but Yellowing occurs during flower from what Ive been told. Check out some of my posts on this. Do a search under my name and you will see pictures of my plant on a post.

It is my oppion that yellowing of leaves is quite normal. I have seen when i flower that by the end of the first month the lower fan leaves yellow first, then make there way up. I am an avid gardener and i am sure that this is because the fan leaves are the energy source for the buds. Thats why the bud leaves stay green. If it's yellowing fast it could be a nut problem... but if they are only the large fan leaves, and begin from the bottom...your ok.

You got it mike! Yellowing is 100% expected. Some plants lose almost all of their fan leaves by harvest.
