You can see the lower part of the stalk is bald. They all fell overnight. This is a Super Lemon Haze tree top grow, about 2 weeks into flowering.
At the same time flowering started she was transplanted from a regular pot in the garden to this sky high 30L pot. She was doing very well, ~1.30m tall and healthy. The transplant was as smooth as possible. Pot placed in backpack and raised in tree using a cord. Pot placed in larger pot, cut with pruning shears and discreetly removed => minimal transplant disturbance.
Soil made of:
40% forest soil, which is part peat from decomposed oak leaves
25% perlite
10% chicken manure
15% decomposed banana peels
10% some garden soil from old pot
I water it every day mostly, miss a day now and then.
The day I found the leaves fallen a really huge storm hit, I thought the pot was a goner for sure, even expected the tree to outright collapse: just some powerful wind. But everything was fine, and to my surprise my girl looked exactly the same, no more leaves had fallen. I had suspected it was some strong wind up there that caused this problem.
You'd think it's the shock of transplantion during flowering, but I transplanted her sister a few days later(on regular ground) and she's doing well. Same procedure basically, just no pulling it up anywhere. Soil used is very similar, less peat(25%) and less perlite(20%), no chicken manure, 20% decomposed banana peels, more regular garden soil. By now the same should've happened to her.
I'm suspecting either Nitrogen or Sulphur deficiency. I peed twice in the water I gave her. Also mixed in some chicken manure with water once, watered her and left the manure on top. No more leaves fell. What do you think?
