there is no way that plant is lacking in light or over fed it is living with 3 others that are all perfectly fine! maybe overwatered but that is a problem that has been corrected and never caused that much damage to any of the other plants including 2 babies.
 
Hello rocky rockstar ! Thanks for the info supplied ! Looking at your pic indicates that your plant is being over watered . To help rectify this problem i poke my finger 2 inche's into the soil and be sure that it is quite dry (marijauna is a tuff plant and can handle being thirsty for a day or two...i water each 2nd day and have 30-35 degree temps in the sun =100 farenheit +...also using 2 gall pots )! Secondly i was using this miracle grow blue powder type stuff and had a few problems with nute burns on my tomatoes and my first plant i grew this year( personally i believe this stuff is unpredictable ) ! I have changed now to using a fish fertiliser and a soil conditioner =Kelp feed ! These work well during the vegetative stage of growth and are pretty cheap as well ! I also think you may be getting a slight claw effect on the leaves this generally means that your nitrogen levels are high and you have a rather dark green appearance to boot as well ! The compost that you have used will have high amounts of nitrogen in it as well it also may be to hot (fresh ) for your plant at the moment...But if you let this plant dry out for 3.5 days and flush it you'll flush the excess nutes out and allow the plant to recover ! Imo use 40 litres -liters of water to do this its quite safe .. I also recommend that you ph check your water before flushing it...it should be at 6.5-6.8 are optimal ! If it is low you can raise it using bi carb soda or ph up ! If it is high you can lower it using lemon juice or white vinegar or ph down ! I use bi carb and lemon juice !And never use both at one time just do it once and get it right !( also checking the runoff indicates the ph of the soil ..if i should have a problem with my plant i water it untill there is about a cup full of run off and then check the ph of the run off but if i had 5 gall pots i would water enough to have 2-3 cups of run off ...10 gall = 6-8 cups off run off etc..! ) Also what strain is this = what type of seeds are they ? e.g indica or sativa = strain.. you can also provide the breed of them as well like OG KUSH or AK 47 Jock herer maybe Mandala's speed queen ! Or Bagseed = unknown ! Ok so i hope i covered most base's here this should improve your plants health 10 fold ! And you are on my bud list ! And remember Stay safe and take care ! Peace ! x
 
I agree with TFG and hazes, "Over watered, over fed, underlighted."

Do you put your plants outside during the day and then bring them in at night? If so, I'd stop moving them around like that. In my opinion, it is best to do either one or the other: Grow indoors or outdoors, but not both.

Bringing outdoors plants inside can bring about a pest problem, because once inside, outdoor pests have no natural enemies, and tend to proliferate like mad.
 
when I overwatered mine it got yellow.. his is still green .. looks like somthing with the ferts to me...
 
Hello Rockyrockstar :)

"there is no way that plant is lacking in light or over fed it is living with 3 others that are all perfectly fine! maybe overwatered but that is a problem that has been corrected and never caused that much damage to any of the other plants including 2 babies."

We get the message :aok:

Your problem could be root damage/rot.

Any chance of lifting it out and having a look?

People here are trying to help, not hinder.

Holy carp, I passed your post without reading it.

Space is like taking a breath between dying, it keeps it worthwhile.

I would pull it out of the pot and check the roots and everything you have nothing to lose. jmo
