help me... had whiteflies.. used an organic mix.. hot green pepper and garlic, couldnt get it off leaves.. seems to have left burn marks, is that a problem? also... i am almost a month into flowering. and wondering what are the narural leaf changes for BC Big Bud... as they started to change yellow, at bottom and working up.. i flushed it just to make sure it wasnt a nutrient lock up, i checked the PH its at 6.4, so i think thats fine.... please let me know what is normal color etc. changes for the leaves during flowering..need some help from any experienced growers.. thanks.......

First of all, you need to get rid of the whitefly's. Just as a 12/12 light cycle makes the plants think it's fall, it does the same to insects. Meaning it's a sign to them to eat lots of your plant and makes lots of babies. And when tou harvest you'll be smoking whitefly's and their eggs. Use an organic insecticide, 1 that's used for veggie's that says "safe until day of harvest". You need to break the life cycle of the bugs. Spray with insecticide, then the next day spray with water, then the 3rd day insecticide again, then water and like that for 2 weeks.
Leaves (especially fan leaves) store nutrients during veg. These are expended during flowering. When the stored nutrients are all used up, the leaves have done their job and they yellow, wither and fall off. It's supposed to happen.
