What's new

Is this plant screwed? Should I get it out of my tent?

Hi all, novice here who indeed bungled things. I have a White Buffalo Seeds Sasquatch that faded out yellow on me WAAAAY too early into flower, and I've been chasing it ever since trying to get it to green up and look okay.. and as mentioned, total noob here so most likely just simply screwed up

My question isn't did I screw up, but, should I kill this plant and get it out of my tent?

I can't tell if it's a lost cause or not. To my eye the new leaves look much darker green. But I know nothing lol

So I come looking for help!

Thank you all

It's in a 5 gallon pot filled with Black Swallow KIS MIX soil. It yellowed fairly early into flower on me and I started hitting it with a bloom dosage and 25% 4-4-4 to hopefully try and green it back up. It might've worked but I just don't know if it's too far gone ?

Water pH 6.5

LED HLG-550

Your plant seems very sativa. Often they are not dark green. They are a little yellow but not alarming either. You can try watering with urine diluted with 1 part urine to 9 parts water. This will quickly correct the small deficiency and provide others nutrients to your plant.

No friend don't throw it away. Let the plant teach you what is going on in the substrate so you can learn from it. If you throw it away you will never know what caused the problem and keep repeating it. Giving a 4-4-4 fertilizer can cause yellowing if the EC is already too high.

It looks like the EC or salts may be rising on the high side. Do a pour-thur catch a small amount of the runoff and test the EC and pH with a meter. If it's high just use plain water in excess to lower the EC. IF you don't have an EC or TDS and a pH meter you need to get one so you can know what's going on in the substrate. Always test incoming and outgoing liquids to know whats going on in the soil at any given time. TDS or EC meters are cheap as well a pH meters and well worth the money. If you don't have them then that's the problem with your plant.

Still hanging on.. almost no trichomes lmao

More having a laugh with it at this point and treating it as a learning experience

Feel free to poke fun, I'm a good sport 😜

Still hanging on! Still throwing out white pistils! She's a long flowering sativa (Sasquatch x i-Spice) so I'm seeing what happens

I honestly did a few things and not even sure exactly, but amongst them I did indeed try the 1:10 dilution of urine to water and then also hit it with Botanicare Soil Bloom a few days after that.. There's still SOME yellowing leaves at the bottom but it definitely made the overall plant even more green.. lights come on in around 6 hours I'll take an updated picture!

thanks for asking!
