My god those eggs are scary looking. Overall, your garden is kicking ass, as a small time grower, I can imagine its a lot of work you put in, a lot, lol

My 2 big plants have been losing a lot of leaves lately. I assumed that it was because they started into bloom. Now I guess I need to do some more reading...

It is normal for plants in flower to yellow their leaves and die off slowly (not all of them of course). This is simply the buds using the nutrients in the leaves to get bigger. However the way in which they are yellowing is important to note. If the yellowing is spotted, and there is also tip curling and/or burning, then you have deficiencies or nute burn, which this season has taught me are the most complicated and frustrating problems a grower can come across (besides pythium aka "root-rot", that one is the worst - & exhibits similar symptoms to the former).

Post photos here if you think something abnormal is occurring.

Thanks for the info! I'll have to take a good look at the leaves and see if I can tell what might be going on.

It's going to be a heck of a harvest! lol Following along since my two plants are at about the same stage as yours are. My first, your vids are perfect timing.
It's just a lot of fun growing and figuring out what the plants need.
Finally broke down and decided to test the ph. Soil is between 7 and 7.5 Water ph meter coming today. Will test the water after adding bloom nuts. I'm guessing a little organic vinegar might be in order.

3 of my 5 plants have turned out to be male. Watching the last two with suspicion.. lol watching close, we'll see
