Would it be possible to cover the plant in something breathable but blocks out light so you get a least 12 hours darkness? Or can you drag it into your closet for 12 hours? If you don't, the plant may never be smokable, er I guess it could technically be smokable, but it won't get you very high -if at all The street lights are what the problem is I'm sure.

Everyday I have only about 8/16 Sunlight only cos blocked by some other buildings around here. Currently it is about 1 metre tall only at 10mths, outdoor growing. I water the plant twice daily 8am & 8pm. That may be too much watering. Only water when a few inches of the soil is dry. Stick your finger in to knuckle to ck. Overwatering could be causing the yellowing leaves...maybe.

There last few days the leaves of the plants started to have yellow leaves but lots of small leaves have started to grow too, is it ok?
Which leaves are yellow and how are they yellowing. Yellowing is normal in flower, but this is a little soon. Also the farther you get into flowering, less leaves shoul grow and more Should fall off. If you feel it is a lot of leaf loss, try to find a nute that has a higher p rating in the NPK number. I use MG bloom 15-30-15. I don't know what nutes are available in Asia...how neat, can I come visit? There are so many pretty flowering trees there (real trees I mean lol). Be sure to have trace minerals in it and start at 1/2 stregnth (and don't do it every water or you will have a chemical salt build up and will need a thourogh flushing later)
Btw how do I harvest it? This one is easy! Once you feel it is ready (by trich color and/ or by sample smoke- note it is too early right now to get anything off of it) chop it down, hang it somewhere dark and not too hot not too cold ck for dryness pretty often. When it is crisp to the touch and still can squeeze and feel moisture remove fan leaves and throw it in some paperbags, shaking lightly and opening up the bag daily to bring in fresh air and keep the buds from molding. Once it is quite dry (a miniscule amount of moisture when squeezed) and the stems snap quite well trim it up, remove stems (if you didn't already that is) and place in glass jars 2/3 way full. For a few weeks open the jars up to air out once a day. Always be cking for mold with your eyes and sniffer. If it begins to mold, it was not dry enough for the jars and throw back into the bags. Remove mold and don't smoke it. (that seemed obvious, but you never know).
Thanks.

Hope that helped, and I really do like the tree! I'd love to see when you harvest!!
