This was a bonus seed from Barney's Farm, which came with my auto-flowering seeds. I thought: might as well plant this too! The autoflowers together with Blue Gelato was my first grow. It had a rough start, going much slower than the autoflowers in the seedling stage. In the first few months, I did not pay much attention to this one, as the focus was on the autoflowers. So it suffered a bit from nutrient deficiencies. After some feeding, she came back to life. The last month was wet and cold, and I had to check for botrytis every day. I even bought a small tent to protect her from the rain. In the end, she did get a little rot, and that was when I decided to harvest. Even though the buds were not fully matured yet. I am very happy with the end result, though it is not much weight for such a long grow. Quality over quantity I guess! The buds are much denser and stickier than the autoflowers. The smoke is energizing and gives me good laughs! Makes for a decent day smoke too.

Reviews. Nutrient
Pretty easy to use in theory, but hard to dose. If you only have a small plant, which doesn't need much water and nutrients, it's hard to break the tablets. Especially the Grow tablets are very compact, while the bloom tables are really crumbly. Also takes quite a while to dissolve.

I harvested it as soon as I found botrytis. I had to throw away a small bit, but as a checked every day for signs, it didn't get much time to spread. After a short trimming session, I hang them in a cardboard box with holes in the sides, with strings and clothespins. After a little more than a week, the thin stems snapped instead of bent. So it was time to start curing them!

What should I do to fix my plant? She has hanging leaves and yellowing for weeks. The summer has been pretty wet here, and the soil has been satiated a couple of times. It's getting dry now. Should I wait for the soil to completely dry or try feeding nutrients?

If the top inch or so is dry, it is time to water. Water deeply to run off. Going by your pictures, your plant needs feeding too. Never feed on dry soil, always lightly water first, about half the amount of water you usually give, an hour or so before feeding. This will help prevent burning and aid in the absorption of the fertilizer into the soil. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Are the colors of the leaves a sign of healthy development in the flowering stage, or a sign of nutrient deficiency/excess? After struggling a lot with the nutrition of this plant, I am not sure anymore whether I'm doing it right. Some of the leaves become yellow and fall off.

Looks like a combination of phosphorus deficiency, end of life with a bid of nitrogen deficiency and cold nights. Starting with phosphorus. Your 3rd picture of week 19 you can see the serrated edges curing up on the leaves. This is the first sign of a lack of phosphorus ( also a first sign of high heat or low humidity but your heat is normal and humidity is high so you can rule that out). The next sign is leaves start to go purple ( this is also genetics and will happen based on pigmentation and not a deficiency with some strains when they hit end of life or low night temperatures.). The spots and purple leaves going brown is the next phase. Nitrogen deficiency- this is seen with the bottom leaves going yellow/red( strain pigmentation I mentioned above ). Nitrogen is mobile so the plant will take the nitrogen from the lower less productive leaves as it needs it. This is normal for end of life and actually a good sign you did not over feed her. To much can cause a harsh smoke and bad taste or take longer to cure the bud after it has dried. As for what you can do I would say keep her happy with water until harvest. With your location you only have so long before it gets to cold. She can handle a short frost but Its best to harvest before that.
