ILGM Big Bud Outdoors

Last week I started to notice leaves were yellowing at the bottom, kind of fading out. I buried them with a lot of compost, so I thought they would be fine, but as this week progressed the yellowing of the leaves started creeping up the plant. So, this morning I got out with my hand cultivator (little three-pronged claw thingy) and dug down about two inches all around the plants' canopies, trying to stay away from the stem, and sprinkled about 10 tablespoons of worm compost. I have a worm bin, so worm compost is available to me 100% of the time, plus I know what's in it. When I dug around the plants, I saw plenty of worms there too, and although my natural soil is clay, the areas around the plants were rich earth not only because of what I've buried them with, but because those areas of the forest are getting attention. I'm guessing we're ~10 weeks away from harvest, and the bud sites on these girls are looking nice. The plants are starting to smell pretty strong - it's a strange smell, like a skunk and grapefruit rind. The smell hits you pretty quickly once you walk into the firest - thankfully skunks are very common around here, so it's nothing out of the ordinary to smell them. Clean, dank country living.
