Hi Everyone,

I have a few plants all almost a year old if not older and they got really stressed for about a month. This was about 2 months ago. They went though a period without much light and had mites for a little while and got sprayed quite a bit. Also because they were looking so bad I didnt really know what to do so I gave them a few good feedings, that didnt help, so i gave them only tap water. Still nothing. Then i talked to the guy at the grow shop and he told me to repot them in promix so i did this and it may have gotten a tad better, but i cant get the color back. This was not my doing btw, i had to trust them in somebody w/somebody else for a little bit.

If anyone can help get me on the right track here, I'd greatly appreciate it.

they are all in promix and have only fed them once since and this was yesterday. The transplant was about 2 weeks ago.

Thanks

Burmese Kush

next time it needs water flush the shit out of it with phd water and check the runoff until its about 4-500ppm after that feed it LIGHTLY 3-500 ppm of just a main nute phd till its back on its feet... could take a while but it should be savable....

Check your roots with a loupe and a bright light, if you can pull one of those out of it's pot. You are checking for root aphids. They are small and hard to see. Have to stare at one point for awhile.
Also check general health of your roots.
Hopefully, you don't have root aphids, but they are "going around".
 
Leave your problems behind: Reboot. Take cuttings of the (I'm presuming) mother plant and start fresh and clean. Clean cutting, new container, fresh soil.

at a year old plants will have lost their natural vigour and won't get it back. I suggest you do as WHATSUPDOC suggests ...

I would do clones as well. Find a good couple of cuts get them rooted and your back in business

That plant is so massive it has like 4-5 other branches almost as bushy been lst for a long time. I have 3 other plants in the similar condition that are close to it in size.

Also I recently took them out of their pots and knocked as much dirt off of the roots as i could by spraying them with water and then replanted them into a fresh mix of Promix.

So can they really not be saved? I have 2-3 weeks before i can flower them anyway, so if there is a moderate chance of saving them I'd like to try.

Thanks very much for the advice though everyone. I Knew it may be dire and I dont want to cause myself more problems so if they cant be saved I will just clone them as *suggested, I'd just like to be very certain before i do that though.200/

I just want to add the plants were perfectly healthy before there were getting very low light for a few weeks and sprayed with lots of azamax and hot pepper spray. Also they went through quite a few spells without getting watered from the looks.
