Hi guys I’m new to this forum, I wanted to post about this plant I have, it’s been going strong with barely any issues until now, it’s a few weeks into flowering and I’ve realised the bottom leaves are a pale colour, with a main leaf going brown and curling up, I’ve included a picture. Could you please tell me your thoughts, from what I’ve read it could be nitrogen deficiency and I’ve purchased a nitrogen fertiliser which i applied last night, but I’m still very unsure on it this is the problem! I’m looking for some serious help as my buds are almost done and this is my first grow
Almost time to harvest and get the plant has gone pale and curling!

Have you fed any nutrients up until now? Looks like severe deficiency at minimum. What about your water pH? What medium are you growing in?
It appears that you haven't done any research on growing cannabis. Here's a great place to begin: https://growweedeasy.com
Thanks for your reply, I’ve been giving it worm juice fertiliser for the past few weeks as recommended by someone else which seemed to work a tonne, only now it’s begun to show these problems. What do you recommend?
Well, I'd start by ensuring that I'm using a proper mixture of nutrients that suit a cannabis plant's needs, and ensure my nutrient/water mixture is at the proper pH for the medium I'm growing in.
Is "worm juice fertiliser" a name brand? Do you have a link that shows the details of what's in that feed?
I'd ensure proper temperature, humidity and airflow as well.

The more info you provide the better the answers will be. Sometimes something you feel is insignificant can be the most important piece of info you provide.
This is an outdoor grow, which to be honest only started out as a fun experiment. I’ve done research on the grow throughout the last few months but thought I was the right track since it got to the point which it was giving out buds. So nutrient deficiency you believe, I will go to the store and buy a fertiliser then? I had one which was specified for nitrogen but do you think it will need more than that? What about for that second photo, do you think it needs more red hairs before I take it off the plant for drying? Thanks heaps for your help by the way, just don’t want to loose how far I’ve come at this point from just a test
Well it’s just been an outdoor grow, I’ve got it planted with Canna Terra, and been giving it worm juice fert mixed with water. I have not been giving it a specific fertiliser which may have been the dumbest thing yet then, but since it had no paling or colour issues, i thought it was on the way to going okay.
Worm juice fertiliser is not a brand name, it’s an organic mixture from worms which makes juice that are used as a fertiliser. I’m going to buy a proper one today anyway, what do you recommend it needs to have in it in particular, just NPK?
