Is this yellowing the start of bud rot or ec too high?

From what I've read, mainlining is a bit more brutal and uniform. Mines just a plant being pinned down as much as I can lol... Nothing so surgical.
Always used seeds. Mine take 90-100 days from sprout to chop but I'm sure better growers could shave a few weeks off that. Autos will flower under any light cycle in 3 to 4 weeks usually. I believe it's best to give then a few dark hours... Popular choice seems to be 18/6 or 20/4, but I also read they can go without the dark hours, and since my temps plummet and Rh rocket as soon as the lights go off, I opted for 24/0.

I cant believe your grow with them led lights, 3's in 11ltr pots, that is mental. Makes me think mine is way OTT lol. Need to re-evaluate my approach I think.

We grow from cuts, so 10-14 days in 1ltr light mix, then repot into 20ltr coco pro and veg for about 3 weeks, then 8-9 weeks flower (using dutch pro). With 1 week chopping n drying thats 14 weeks (104 day roughly), so a similar time frame.

How tall do you let yours get, they look quite small in that little tent. We go about 24in. You've done very good to get 3's man.

Just to check, that is 3oz off each plant ye, not 3oz total? Lol

They're each about 22 to 24 inches, and yeah, 3 off each.
My original goal was 1.5 per plant but with the help of this site I smashed it. And I'm only a beginner, check out some of the plant of the month entries and follow em back to the diary for the equipment and harvest details

Thanks for your help Silk, I will be following threads on here a lot more closely.
Something is not right with our methods, regardless of equipment, because looking at some of the diaries on here yields are the same or more than ours but using a lot less.

The thing I notice on here is that most grows (thats Ive just seen) are done in small spaces. Ours is quite a large loft area with adequate ventilation, and even though the numbers on the readers are all in the right ranges, maybe its something to do with the environment i.e. how efficiently is moisture evaporating from the leaves, maybe even levels of Co2.
I have noticed patches on the leaves that look a bit like a snail trail, which has made me question whether its too hot in there, or moisture is sitting too long on the leaves because the RH is too high in the room. The probe hangs just off center in the room but it might be an idea to get another one on the far side.

Think I'll do my own diary on the next one so people can see my process and point out any ways you guys do things better.

There's a few good reasons I can see in having a tent or at least a sealed area. Reflection off the mylar, better control of environment, smell control, and it's cheaper and easier to run heaters, humidifiers or dehumidifiers in a smaller space. I'm not in a loft, but I do have insulation sheets around the tent
There's some great diy loft diaries in here. Check out GasMans

A diary will help u massively mate. I had no clue a year ago and 1st attempt before I went online for guidance gave a whopping 14g for 2 plants lol. Thetalk soon changed all that so you're in the right place. Just never break the 10 plant rule... Zero tolerance on that one

Im going to mark this as the answer to close this thread, and ask a new question now I know its not rot as nothing has changed in 48hrs. Definitely some kind of nutrient/ec issue.
Looks like we might lose 10-20% off each plant.
