Hi everyone,
This is my 1st attempt as I literally 'found' a seed and decided to see what would happen. It has been outside for about 2 months now, growing non-stop. Recently tho some of the leaves are turning yellow and getting brown stops before curling up and falling off. Any advice on what to do would be much appreciated. It is literally had nothing but sunshine and water and a tiny bit of tomato food.

Cheers

probably a little nutrient deficiency. Maybe nitrogen and or iron. The plant is looking good, you don't want too much nitrogen later on in flower though. When the plant is full on flowering the leaves will yellow and fall off if all nutrients are in order.

Thanks, I'll look into getting some proper food for it. Should I remove the yellow leaves or wait fr them to fall off?

wait for them to fall off. Then when they do make sure u clear them out so they don't decay in your soil and cause issues.

I'm afraid that plant is starting to die. The bucket is pretty small for a plant that size but that isn't the problem. Get some Dynagrow 7-9-5 at a hydro shop. It can be used for both soil and hydro grows and has pretty much all the nutes you need. Put one half teaspoon in a gallon of water, give that, then let the soil dry out before you water again. If it's hot in your area, it won't take long for the soil to dry. You have severe magnesium deficiency and low nitrogen in your soil, probably among other things. Dynagrow will fix most of your nutritional problems.
