  1. Guys I have a 5 month old plant and it just started making buds,the problem is I left my father water it for some days and when i came back i saw it almost dead with all the leaves looking down and I almost cried.I asked some friends and they told me it's from overwatering.the plant is about 2m high and it needs 1 month to finish but it looks dead.Is there anything i can do to save it?The plant is in outdoors
     
  2. You would be best off cutting the plant down with a big fuck off machete and once that's done go and cut your dad down and teach him a lesson
     
  3. I followed your advice now I'm in jail thanks asshole
     
  4. Sounds like you need to check the pH of water in, water runoff, ppm of water in, ppm of water out. Post results and put some pic's so we can see what we are dealing with.
     
  5. This is the plant,photo is from yesterday morning I will update soon

  6. that is bad D:
    What soil are you using? it kinda looks like mud lol. Is there perlite in that soil?
     
  7. Is it going to live( I also bought a big bud nutrient)
     
  8. it doesnt look so bad that it cant pull through, but you need to act fast. Whats up with that soil? If its just dirt from outside, thats a big problem alone. Your roots need perlite to more easily breath and to help avoid holding onto water so long that it rots your roots from overwatering.
     
  9. Since its illegal growing pot in my country we didn't really consider taking good care of the plant(my first time ever) no there isn't any perlite and its plain soil from the ground idk
     
  10. yikes, thats why they are drowning. You're essentially growing them in mud and the roots cant breathe so coupled with the overwatering, here we are :p Your roots may end up rotting and lead to a multitude of deficiency's.

    at this point i think your only option is to let it dry out completely and to water it in the future in small amounts. Does that pot its in have holes on the bottom for water drainage?
     
  11. Yes it does have plenty of holes.Is it going to help if I pour some big bud in it ?
     
  12. If its only a month or so away from harvest, transplanting and knocking off all that mud from the roots would be far too much a shock to your plant when coupled with its current health. You're sort of in limbo, you cant do much at this point but you definitely now know to use simple soil from the store mixed with perlite. Greatly reduces odds of overwatering.
     
  13. No you want to completely avoid watering it for a while until that soil has mostly-completely dried, then you can water it some nutes/additives. If you keep watering it now while its still wet from those pics, you're only making it worse and possibly killing it.

    You could try placing a small fan pointed at the dirt to help dry it faster. In a couple of days stick your finger down 2 inches, if its still very damp, you still dont need to water.
     
  14. So I just let it dry a few days and it might recover ?
     
  15. Its a giant plant for ground dirt, it seems to me if you didn't need an arc to sail the ocean that is lying in the pot it would be in decent health. That water need to be soaked up as soon and as best as possible. After that .DO NOT WATER FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS . It's definitely not all the way dead but it will be soon if it doesn't dry up. Good luck!

  16. Yep! i edited my post up above this one. So in a couple days, stick your finger into the soil a good 2 inches down. If its still completely damp, dont water it. Usually its 1 inch down if its dry u can water, but since you're growing in mud, 2 or maybe even 3 inches is a safer bet.

  17. Guys I really appreciate the time you gave for me and my child I thank you all so much and hope for the best.I wish it recovers since this strain is really rare and it can give up to 2 kg per plant
