Hey.. I´m a very new grower and I am about 8 weeks into my first grow (3-4 weeks into flowering). Sadly while my equipment seems sufficient I didn´t had the proper preperation in regards to nutrients which my plants needed (my fully organic grow approach didn´t work out as planned) and I´m now in a situation where I got some nice flowers going but the plant is clearly shown very heavy signs of nutrient deficit and at the same time it has some nitrogen toxicity symptoms (imagine half my plant looks yellow, burned, clawed leaves and the other half is dark green) and generally it looks very unhealthy. It is still developing the buds and it is still consuming water at a normal rate.
The current plan is to take my first grow as a learning experience and just let the plant go through all stages including drying/curing to do everything once. It is not unlikely that I get some decent buds out of the plants even when they don´t look super healthy and the plant is not doing so fine. Also I´m hard limited to a 50g dried harvest anyway, rest I would need to throw away (law).
My main question atm why I registered here in the forum. When the cannabis plant is clearly shown signs of nutrient deficit (or even the opposite toxisit / nutrient burn) will the buds become "bad" or "toxic". Like literally "you can´t smoke it cause it would be bad for your health" toxic. It is not about losing taste or that it doesn´t have the potency it would normally have but just more the question if a situation can occur where it is dangerous for your health to smoke the buds. When I think about the topic it seems logical that if the plant has way too much nitrogen that it would put more nitrogen into buds then normally which then in return would cause problems when you consume the bud. But.. like that´s just how I imagine it. Maybe the plant is just "not building buds if it doesn´t have the proper elements for a healthy flower" and even if the plant has toxicity it will not be transferred into the flowers/buds?
I like have no information and I know the US community is probably one of the best sources in regards to questions for cannabis growing. Maybe someone knows something about this topic. Like I said I just want to finish my first grow, learn from it and potentially enjoy a small harvest and it would be helpful if someone could easy my mind with information about this topic. In the end I don´t really want to consume something that would be bad for me ^^
Also sorry for my poor english ^^
Thanks for anyone who potentially knows some answers and can help me out :)
