Exclamation HELP! Last couple weeks and its DYING!!! PICS

Thank you thank you for reading this, i need a quick fix and i think here are my problems:

I've been underwatering the whole time, so i stepped it up for a day, but i had only been giving the girl about a half gallon a day to a quarter gallon of balanced water. I also think i have underfertilized most of the time, as i've been using only a gallon with the scoop of fert, and its showing red stems for sodium def., crinkled ...rolled up top and magnesium praying going on. It has lower leaves and most fans dry as bone, but still green, with a seeping brown color starting from the edges coming in towards the stem.

Also, it just got flused yesterday with 3gal. Its an indica in a 3gal bucket, enough light, right temp and vent, just water and fert issues IMO.

So heres the problem, the buds are starting to see that brown seeping color coming...is this chloriosis or whatever, or is it the deficiencies?

Should i wait til its soil is dry before i fert it? It has 2-4 weeks til harvest at most, and i dont want it tasting bad before i harvest.

PLEASE HELP MY NEWB ASS!!!!

Fert is 10-55-8.

Buddy, you're plant looks so sick I think ppl are afraid to give advice as it looks beyond saving and might die. Sorry to have to be the one to say it. I think what you have done by flushing it out might just turn it about but from what you said-

Did the plant need so much water? Sounds a LOT to me. Perhaps I'm reading it wrong but I make it 3/4 gallon of water per day ?

Well, about 32ozs, but thats average...just on how the soil dryed up. But it definately soaked it up when things started to go awry. I flushed with a half gal, then the next day it looked sooooooo much worse (went from healthy with a couple bad leaves, to this mess) and so i flushed it again with 2-3 gallons. So its almost dry today, and the red in the top two stems has gone away and the 2nd ring of stems is starting to fade the red away. I also hadn't been flushing monthly until now, but this is my first time . The reason I think it is underwatering because i have been watering it practically the same since the beginning, forgetting that its a growing thing.

!!!!!!!! As far as safety, even if this does make it..is it okay to use that type of damaged bud? Cut the good buds now? !!!!!!!!??????????

Side note: the seeping brown is not actually brown, its more of a grey, but there is light brownish to it as well.

Don't chop it. When you flushed it how much of the 3gl came out?

It's weed so it's quite hard to kill, if you had nutrient build up in the soil then the plant will slowly start to die off normally from the bottom upwards and starting with the big fan leaves. It must have got quite hot to dry out so much in such little time.

However it would be nice to have some idea of the conditions the plant has been kept in.

Lamp - Heat - Soil and so on.

ouch!

where to begin?

Im with Max here, with all the water youve been giving these plants it seems difficult to believe this is underwatering,


then your posted about it not really being brown but more of a grey , the leaves are dry but green, sounds like severe phosphorus def.which can also cause co-symptom of N, K, and Mg-deficiencies

whats the PH of the soil runoff and your room temps

half a gallon everyday? holy shit
slow down on the watering. on average you only need to water them ever 3days, or whenever the top inch of soil is dry.
