Conditional Formatting Color Code based on Due Date

Hello,

I am at my wits end! I am trying to format my spreadsheet to color code reports due, and past due.

G2:G50 is Field Work Completed, Row I is report due date (3 weeks from field work completion) --> =G2:G50+21

I want to format row I such that <=21 days is green, <=35 days is yellow, >=35 days is red

I have attached the formulas, and based on what I'm trying to do, the I2 should be yellow, but never changes.

Help!!

    Try this one. Use G2 (First cell of selected range) in your conditional formatting rule instead of entire range.

    =TODAY()-G2<=21
