usually when the bottom leaves turn yellow and fall off, could be lack of light, lack of nutrients (mostly nitrogen). if the bottom leaves are turning brown and drying out to a crusty dead leaf then its probably calcium/magnesium deficiency. lockout could also be a thing also. try giving it a good flush then give some NPK nutes along with some dolomite and a bit of epsom salt for its sulphur, and micro nutrients too. pretty much do a hard reset on the soil. not sure what NPK you are using but its gotta have some nitrogen unless its a few weeks before harvest.

Really? Manure is typically pasteurized in a pressure cooker before using in the garden.

I almost pissed on my first plant ever because I was told growing up its great for the plant. HAHAHA
True story that is what I done that a few times close to the plant as well might be to much nitrogen I'll keep an eye on things over the next few days if it gets any worst I'll dig the plant up and transplant it in some new soil first time ever this has happened lol ,

theres alot of "old growers" that are full of BS. all they do is talk, had one guy tell me i was full of crap and when i asked him for legit advice he wouldnt offer it. alot of the real growers dont talk about it, only the BS guys talk, and alot of those real growers just know from extensive trial and error and dont really understand the how or why, just that it works.

Very true sounds like ill be digging up the plant and re planting it , it is going to be interesting in the transplant since I've trained the plant bending tieing it down meshing it lol

That's good man. Chalk it up to experience. I can't wait to smoke my first bowl of homegrown. I'll be chopping mid March and should finish curing just before 4/20. Did I time that shit perfectly or what!?
