1. Kick your buddy in the nuts.
2. Water it.

LMAO

It was watered day before yesterday. Normal same amount i always give....

Then he noticed it was drooping yesterday and watered again .so 2 days water in a row...

And i see it today and water and put a humidity dome and shade....and water. ....so 3 days of water...

Im starting to think its over watering but i gave normal amount of water day before yesterday....and all my other plants are perfect. Could be over watering but i doubt it

Looks like it needs water....

I had the exact same thing happen to me last week and it wasn't because it was dry. I had 2 clones same age, both in 3 gal bags, same soil, water 3 feet apart. One died the other didn't. I think it had some thing to do with the blazing hot heat we had at the time.

There is no saving that plant

Looks exactly like mine.

Dont think it was heat ....this plant has lived in 10 or so 100 plus days this year already and yesterday was only 99.....

Confusing

Maybe somthing in the soil? Gopher?

Too many insects in soil? My soil is alive. Thousands of rolly pollys hundreds of worms and many other bugs i dont know in my soil in each hole

Then I think the water you are supplying it.. maybe isn't getting to the plant? it looks like you use a fair amount of water... but its also hard to tell the moisture of the soil around the base of the plant in the pics


Could also be root aphids

It looks like a Nutrient Deficiency

Root aphids cause stunted growth, and droopy or yellow leaves resembling nutrient deficiencies. The yellowing (chlorosis) resembles a magnesium deficiency, and the yellow-brown spotting a calcium deficiency. If you have checked pH (feed and runoff), and know that your plants are being properly fed, you should probably check for root aphids. They feed by sucking nutrients directly from roots before plants can use them, so their damage isn’t obvious at first. Rule out pH problems quickly and carefully inspect any plant with signs of a deficiency."

Adding a little mulch will help reduce the effects of the sun baking the soil.

Good idea but i dont think its heat since we have had numerous 100 plus days before this and plant never has a problem... Amd all other plants are good.

You should water it and mulch it with hemp bedding, or chopped straw. That will keep the moisture from evaporating as quickly. If you put piece of soft fruit under the mulch, you're also feeding fungi/mycos/endophytes with calories and carbon, which is what fungi need.

Plants do best when they have a permanent water source or permanently moist soil and no top watering. Never any standing water, except as a water reservoir in a pot or the water table near the hardpan in your outdoor soil.

Cannabis likes access to water until the buds are fully formed. By then, the water should have dried up, leaves drop off, more finished bud is exposed to the sun, and the plant should slowly dry out until harvest.

It was totally dead the next day. This happened maybe about a few days after going from a 1 gal to 3.

The plant was perfectly healthy and vibrant before this happened.

I like u thought humidity was a good option so I put it back in a little greenhouse I have but it didn't help.

Did you do a post mortem on the roots?

Plant is still alive in a clear 20 gallon tote. ....if i pull off dome it starts to wilt again...

I will leave on as long as possible airing it out ciuple times a day.

Maybe roots will fix themselves and possibly live...we shall see
