If you run into issues into flowering that cause your sugar leaves to get crispy and discoloured, do you remove them? Or let them run their course and wait till harvest to trim them away?

Hi, I would leave them on, personally. As for what it may be, I believe you're dealing with a significant calcium lockout caused by low ph. This will also lockout phosphorus, iron and zinc. Calcium can only be absorbed as Ca++ ions above a ph of 6.2, in soil. Maybe aim for a ph of 6.5-6.8. Cheers,

Thanks for both of your responses, really appreciate it! Absolutely right about the lockout. I wasn't watering with enough runoff which led to a very low soil pH (5.0) so I gave her a good flush and got it up to 6.2 for now and trying to get it to 6.5-7. Just have to let them do their thing now ✌️ thanks for the help!

Hi there, It’s look like phosphorus deficiency to me.But on the other hand, Your plant is using all the energies to make the buds fatten.So I say It normal to show deficiencies like.All you have to do is focus in your budding process.Happy growing... ✌️
