First grow, Need a little help, Neem oil Problem

S

Plants didn't look bad until I decided to spray with neem oil and messed up the plant pretty badly, still grew one new top but growing has slowed down a lot and stems seems really easy to break. I flushed the whole plant today also to see if it helps any.

Why did you spray?

Most newb issues if not from not understanding the basics, it's getting a 'bright idea' and playing.

Neem should not harm. Neem needs soapy water and is a basic bug treatment.

What was the concentration of the spray?
Did u add a drop of dish soap to break the surface tension so the oil can be diluted?
What is this picture?
Are these the good leaves or the bad?

Looks like to much fert and not burning yet close. As well as too much forceful manipulation of growth.

Let it grow and give it what it needs. It's a gentle life force and needs care. I'd let it go until stretch, then depends on how large it gets. A bit of nutrients at stretch, and during flower.

Neem oil mist on the under leaf
will block the stomat it the way to
the plant to breath

your soil look a bit hot
too many egg shell they
are a good thing but too many
may change the soil.

the biggest mistake beginner do
is too forget that it is only weed
and they are alot more enduring
then we may think.

mist your plant once a day with
plain water

Do you think they will come back? I FIMED it so it would grow 4 colas and only 1 cola grew full leaf, and the other leaves across died and it trimmed them, I flushed the soil today to see I it makes a difference.

Did the plant ever recover?
if so how long would I expect to see a recover? only 1/4 of my colas grew a full set of leafs now.

Give the plant 10 days to resume healthy growth. Leave it alone. Quit interfering. Killing with kindness is the most common beginner mistake. The cannabis plant is extremely resilient, it can make a full recovery if you let it!

No nutes, just water? Every 2 or 3 days for those 10 days?
