Greetings Rollitup Community,
A little background information about me (the grower):
This is the first time I am seeking advice on a grow forum, I am a beginner, so let me down gently. I may be over analyzing the situation or I may be doing more harm than good. I believe I have over/under watered her at some points and used fertilizers when the soil/plant didn't need it. As well as allowed pests to suck the life out of her and may have stressed her out with some light bending/trimming. I feel like a new father all over again stressing over the slightest thing.
If more information or pictures are needed, please let me know.
Thank you for reading and may peace be with you.

A little background information about me (the grower):
- I am a first time cannabis grower.
- I reside in Central-Southern Oregon; Klamath County
- I currently have (1) cannabis plant growing.
- My knowledge of growing cannabis is slim so I am here inquiring helpful guidance.
- I was going to endure the season without input however I do not want to lose my plant; I thought maybe someone on here could steer me into the right direction.
- Strain is called "G13"
- Was a purchased clone from a dispensary on April 20th. ( Do not know the origins of the mother plant nor the living conditions prior; she was approx. 6-11 inches tall)
- Growing outdoors
- Growing Medium:
- Fox Farm Ocean Forest Potting Soil
- 10-Gal Pot
- Watering schedule:
- There is no defined watering schedule which my attribute to the problem.
- The plant generally receives water when (1+) inch of topsoil is dry to the touch. (usually approx. (3-4) days)
- The plant utilizes tap water pH'd to approx. 6.5-7 ( It is a dye tester )
- I use a 2-Gallon container and water is administered until it seen coming from the bottom of the pot.
- Stage of Growth:
- I am only a beginner so this is unknown to me.
- When purchased I transplanted her into a 10-gal pot and she has been in it ever since and will be until harvest...if she makes it.
- I have used "Jorbes Organics All Purpose Water Soluble Plant Food" but stopped because I have read certain species of pests flourish with high nitrogen fertilizers.
- In the beginning, I let her do what she pleased( no cutting or bending ) and unfortunately allowed pests to do the same.
- Since noticing there were tiny creatures taking advantage of her fan leaves, and possibly her roots too, I decided to intervene.
- I induced a dry period because I have read in numerous forums that soil inhabiting pests do not endure well in a dry medium.
- I have applied diatomaceous earth to the dried topsoil and the entire plant (both top and underside of leaves as best I could) and let settle for a day.
- I have also cleared some of the inner branches and leaves to eliminate places where pests like to reproduce/hide.
- For a pesticide, I used a peppermint oil, rosemary oil, plant based soap and water mixture and saturated the entire plant with it.
- I am now using "Lost Coast: Plant Therapy" and have since been treating the plant with it for about a week now.
- I have seen a substantial decrease in pests.
- I am now using "Lost Coast: Plant Therapy" and have since been treating the plant with it for about a week now.
- I have also acquired ladybugs which I release onto the plant periodically.
- Since noticing there were tiny creatures taking advantage of her fan leaves, and possibly her roots too, I decided to intervene.
- Overall there are yellowing leaves scattered throughout the plant as seen in the pictures provided.
- Some of yellowing leaves I hide behind healthier leaves.
