Second attempt after last years first ever grow (Afghan Pearl CBD). Got about 3/4oz dry weight. This year using 8l fabric pots instead of 20l pots. Fingers crossed for higher yields this year!

Real growth from the Big Bud over the last week. Still watering every 3 days. Afghan Pearl CBD has now started flowering too this week.

Had some nutrient burn, particularly with the Afghan Pearl CBD this week. Have given them a couple of flushes with just water. Doesn’t appear to have gotten worse - so fingers crossed! Now stopped using Cal Mag altogether and reduced the Bio Bizz Fish Mix. Really hoping I’ve made the right call!

Should I be concerned about the dying leaves near the bottom? I first thought it was nutrient burn but I’m now doubting myself!

It's a bit hard to tell from the picture tbh. Typically bottom leaves yellowing and dying is a sign of the plant pulling nutrients from older growth to newer growth. To me, this looks like either early signs of magnesium deficiency or nitrogen deficiency. Magnesium is a mobile nutrient and shows in the bottom leaves first.

A bit of heat/light stress to the tops this week - yellow tips to some of the top leaves. Opened the door on the PVC greenhouse to try and regulate the heat as it’s warming up here. Hope the pests stay off them!

Been really hot here this week - above 30C. Afghan Pearl CBD is getting close to being ready for flushing with just water. Big Bud is starting to live up to her name and has fattened up a lot this last week, the buds a very dense

Looking like they’re about 2 weeks off now all going well. Now using just water without nutes to finish. Bigger fan leaves are yellowing and some have fallen off

Having to harvest earlier than I would have liked. Rain and humidity has been ridiculous here the last week. Spotted some bud rot despite them being under cover. Really hoping I can salvage something from this after all this time and effort. Time will tell…
