Found Plant

[moshimoshi]

hi folks, a friend of mine found a 2.5 - 3 ft plant. I've never done anything like this before but have been an avid smoker of a few years now. I repotted in about a 40 gallon planter added fresh top soil and some miracle grow. He had it out of its natural habitaT(an alley in the ground) and repotted it in a small 15 gallon planter for about 30 hours before i came to resuce it. Ive been spraying the leaves and watering about 2xs daily. Its not looking so good. There are mini buds fresh little green ones, but the leaves have since begun to droop and hang brittle. Anyone have any suggestions?! Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Theiving someone else's plant is wrong... Even if it was in the process of dying..... I'd be pissed if someone took one of my plants. Even if it was your friend that took it... But hey i could be really off base here.

I'll co-sign Pranics statement. but as long as you didn't steal someone elses plant.
It the Miracle grow plant food burnin up your plants. Thats a huge pot man..40 gallon!!!. I'd run water slowly through it till it comes out clear from the bottom. Get all that MG outa there. After it recovers. feed the plant at 1/4 strength ferts.

But sometimes isn't flushing the plant not a good thing? I mean it makes sense mutt, but what if since it was half dead all that added water drowns the poor thing? I mean it's good advice i just was thinking on the negitive side. Gotta look at all aspects right... thats what you taught me. Just a thought... Again i could be wrong i'm just a lowly rookie in this growing thing.

Yeah, if root rot or something is occuring. but in the event of fert burn from using too much. it has to get out of there or it will torch the plant.

so either way it's a 50/50 chance.. ok i gotcha

Pirating a plant is a definte crime.. I'd never do that.

In any case, i've spritzed her again today and she jsut finished the steam bath. its so not fun having to cary this huge plant into the bathroom then back out but hey its worth it right?

Thanks for the advice folks.

I'm sure ill be back soon

His freind found it...freind was killing it....he saved it. Why waste it?
We'll just say don't take anymore "found" plants.
And jump your freinds ass about "finding plants" he shoulda just left it there.

yes pranic in a sense i did reply but i was speaking to you and mutt. think of it this away if someone stole your crop this year and someone came in here talking about pirating plants wouldnt you be a bit furyated? and mutt i feel like regardless who stole the plant the right thing to do would to rebury it where they found it .

I agree. with ya. This is a shady thread. I'll close it but not delete it. Then this will just die off.
I do hate rippers and his freind does deserve to have his ass beat for it. IMHO. but this guy didn't have a clue, and thought What the heck, maybe I can save it. From the looks of it his freind woulda killed it puttin it back.
