Solid start for Critical. Using a combination of indoors and outdoors. Will eventually just be outdoors though.

She was going really well and out of nowhere some rust patches developed on lower fan leaves. Not really sure what it is. Also a little droopy on fan leaves.

Overwatering does not always mean you’ve been giving the plant too much water. It can also mean that you’ve been giving the plant water too often, or growing plants in a growing medium that holds onto water without enough air, or doesn’t have good drainage out the bottom. The best thing you can do for overwatered plants is give them time between waterings, and then start off watering slowly until things seem back to normal. Make sure that water is able to drain easily out the bottom of potted cannabis plants.

She took a good 3 or 4 days to dry out and curling got worse on fan leaves and new growth. Ended up topping at 4th node and removed lowest node. New growth is promising so there is hope yet. Thanks for feedback and help. Will repot soon.

She has definitely recovered well. Ended up removing all curled up fan leaves and potted into larger pot. Lots of new healthy growth so i will just let her go for a while.

Sooooo been an interesting 3 weeks. I worked out what caused the leaf curl...which was using pyrethrum for an insect problem. Lesson learned...enough said. Growing well now however i noticed preflowers today. She is outdoors and getting 14 hours daylight so not sure what is going on.... Happy growing all!

Fairly slow week for growth. Seems like it doesn't know whether to flower or veg. I'm hoping she reverts back to veg. See how next week goes. Happy growing all!

Unfortunately due to extreme temperatures she pretty much died. Most growing tips whithered and went black. I have taken a few clones in an effort not to completely lose her. RIP Temps were 40 - 46 degrees C or in F 105- 115!
