Is it just me, or are the leaves changing color earlier than normal this year?

I could have sworn this was a biochemical incident sunlight, and yet the leaves are changing over a month earlier than every other year in recent memory.

Am I crazy?

Can also be due to drought. Did you have a drier summer/end of summer in your area?

That’s how I feel here in Michigan. It’s been very dry though. Has been stellar weather for my outdoor cannabis but the good luck has run out and we are in a very wet foggy week now. Fall is certainly here. Fingers crossed I don’t have any issues with mold/mildew. As I look out the window visibility is about 100 feet the fog is so thick.

If the girls aren't in ground, move them indoors during that wet/damp stuff. Nothing worse than getting bud rot with a couple weeks to go.

		They're enormous (6+ feet tall) in 10 gallon pots with stakes all around. Moving them will be a challenge =( I might get out the leaf blower and try to gently give them a dry.
