Not at all haysus. And i do kinda think the yellowing leaves are normal since the rest of the garden (except tomatoes) is dying back from the cooler nights and shorter days.
Some (hopefully) purty pics:

Yep! from the seeds i made from last year
It does have a different look. Leaves are thinner. It implies environment plays a role besides just genetics.

Oct20B.JPG
Rained a few days ago and what sun predicted happened. The buds Got soaked, heavy and Split at the nodes.
Lost two big branches on top.
Tied her up … better. But that is all the work I'm doing on it. If something wants to break OK, it is so close to the end it's inconsequential.

I'll be gone next week (trippin' in Zion Woo-hoo!) then the chop in 2nd week of November.
Well with Sun's advice a week later, maybe; been a couple of frosty mornings. Snow is a coming. In my garden that usually that is the deciding factor for last harvest and shut down.

Looking ragged; But still beautiful.

Jesús Malverde wrote:The yellowing and leaf drop are normal for October for a lot of genetics in my experience, and are actually a good sign as they tell you the plant is approaching readiness for harvest. Some genetics, however, stay fresh perky green right up until the end. There's that moment growing outdoors when your plants are approaching full maturity and just so beautiful to look at when you realize your work for this season isn't even half done. All spring and summer long, the chop looks like the finish line, but its so far from that. Between trimming and setting up a good place for drying (critical!!!) that can be heated and force ventilated, when you do the chop, you realize you'd just reached a false summit and the real goal is still a long way off and up.

thx for the reminder, was reading a thread about some genetics from a grower who knows his stuff, he said 1 thing thats ultimately the truth for 99,99% of strains out there :

nobody took ripening as the main key/selection feature, meaning yellowing of leafs, natural chlorophyll deprivation, leaf loss and some more aspects ... dont mix up ripening with finishing dates, one has to do with trics the other with the plant itself

this grower does remember the times before indoor HID revolution, and as you see, he is missing some more or less important features in todays genetics ... this dude is growing 16 weeks + strains outdoor, went through all of shantis haze variations and found only 1 keeper plant, despite going through at least 5 packs per strain, that fits his "high" needs
awoken the right way

Ok the chop is done. Just in time too. First big storm yesterday, lots of rain .. no snow yet but windy and a hard drencher. Would've devastated the canna if I left her out.
I'm gonna piecemeal or drag the pics out tho.

First here is some bud shots taken from the ladder:

This is my "pet" deer, she sleeps out behind house. She (and her fawn waiting farther back) watched me doing the chop.

And this is why she's waiting around, the compost pile leaf treat. Yum-yum.

For me, bud rot and molds hit the compost...better than risking a lung infection.
