Well I haven't given it any other Nuts other than watering it with MG liquid grow rather than just hose water the other day...other than that its all organic.Its about 5ft and was started in June from a seedling.

Could be salt build up with the mg.
Could be ph issue showing during budding.
Could be dropping fans, because of budding. Not sure how far along you are.

Any one else wish to up on this pony and ride?

The spots are from caterpillars, the damage looks kind of like mesh. You can see through the leaf? When you see new spots like that check the underside of the leaves. Sometimes they can be very hard to find. Look along the big vain's they like to hide there.

Yes, I would yank them.
Dieting leaves that you can just tug and come off should be removed. They can cause issues that will make the matter worse.

If it was my plant I would see if the yellow leaves are ready to come off. Push down on them and they should pop off easy. Take off the yellow ones and wait a few days to see if anymore turn yellow. I really think its just normal pre-flower leaf drop. Is it just the 4 oldest ones? If it is, then I would wait a few days to change anything. The rest of the plant looks fine.

There's lots of stuff you can use to keep pest off your plants.Bacillus thuringiensis is one of the best for caterpillars (bud worms) its a biological pesticide and can be used into flowering.You should be able to find it at home depot. There are home made ones you can use if you don't have the money to spend too.

The yellow leaves should come off easy (just push down on them till they brake at the stock) it wont stress the plant at all. If they don't seem like they want to come off easy...then just try again tomorrow. Don't cut or pull the leaves off, and you will get mixed info but I never take leafs off that are still green and strong.

One more thing you might do (this is all up to you), if it was my plant. I would trim off any small weak branch's on the LOWER HALF that are between the plant and the house. Leave the upper half alone...and do 1 branch like every 2 -3 days until all the weak/small ones are gone. I hope you understand what i'm trying to say...if not let me know and I will try to be a little clearer.

This will help the buds that get more light and wont waste the plants energy on the branch's that will only give you small buds.

Yeah. Take a pair of scissors, clean them with some rubbing alcohol and cut off the weak branch right at the stalk. Cut as close to the stalk as you can without cutting the stalk itself. (its ok if there's a little piece left)

I will be doing the same thing to 2 of my plants. They already have buds on them so I will give them about a week before I start so that I can have a bowl or two of smoke. There not next to anything but one side gets very little light.
