Hello
I love outdoor grows, but be mindful of the bugs that want that yummy plant.😊
But also sometimes you'll just get quirky plants like that, that have a missing leaf, or branch, or little deformities. Sometimes it can be light related, one side getting all the light. Or it's just dominating all the energy...almost like how twins there's often 1 bigger 1 and 1 smaller 1(poor comparison but you get what i mean.)
Just keep giving TLC and usually it'll be just 1 odd leaf versus many.
Happy growing. Congrats on the 1st plant.
