Growing sherbert and Skittles for first time . Outdoors… plants are approximately 4ft. Leaves are turning yellow. Is this a nitrogen deficiency or over watering issue? Looked thru this site, plants look similar to the nitrogen deficiency pic.

Yes, I would say she’s hungry. What brand of medium and nutrients are you using
Miracle grow potting soil for tomatoes, dug approximately 1.5 foot deep by 1.5feet across hole in soil but appears to be mostly clay…
Thank you OGIncognito for the relpies…
this will be challenging Growmie. MG has time released nutrients making it difficult to control plus having the plant in ground versus a pot that you can feed straight H2O and check the run off PH and PPMs. There’s several growers here that have been successful using MG and would recommend a cannabis friendly medium on your next grow. Wish I could offer up some better advice
OGIncognito ,
I really appreciate your time and expertise. I am a novice grower thru and thru. I truly have a brown thumb lol. I have not even been able to grow a vegetable garden. Thats a while different problem and not for this site or topic. I tried to grow sherbert & skittles inside last year. Same grow material MG. Plants did ok but struggled due to lack of experience. I thank you for your replies. A few pics of last year indoors grow.
Overall the plant looks healthy and typical MG grown plants will show some toxicity?? You could take a soil sample close to the root zone and do a slurry test. Mix equal parts soil and distilled water 1/2 a cup of each will work and mix and stir. Let it rest for an hour or so and strain the mix thru a coffee filter and test the PPMs and PH. This is the most accurate method of testing soil numbers at the root zone
I would just give it a little food and see how it goes. Jacks petunia feed works great for the veg stage of growing. Thats what id do. I use that stuff on everything and they all love it. If you want to be organic about it, use some alaska fish emulsion. happy farming
You cant canalize it all, or just go for it. I dont think im wrong, they need food
