Definitely take our opinions as they are, opinions. We only know as much as we can read from your thread

Only you can make the best judgement call. Trust your gut.
Totally and I appreciate everyone's input! I was so bummed earlier when I saw the pics. The last I knew she was healthy and filling the scrog!

It's so hard to say without being there but I do know the facts. It has been watered. I find it hard to believe that she could be under watered. At this point, only time will tell.

Hoping for the Best!

Growing Medium
- Kind organic soil (bottom half of pot)
- Potting soil to fill the rest
- Hydroton layer on top

Watering Schedule
- 3 full water bottles every 5 days. (The pot dries out and is usually very light)

Nutes
- The organic soil provides everything the girl needs to veg. and flower.
- I add nothing but natural spring bottled water.

Temp/Humidity
- 75 to 90 degrees
- 16% (This has been very low for the past few weeks)

I think this is over watered as well. I let him know not to water for the next few days. I will now be getting updates daily on her vitals :)

I am vegging this long since I have a single plant scrog and want to completely fill the net. I have a good amount of space and she seems to be coming along nice. I was going to flip her before I left but I didn't trust my friend tucking and filling the scrog. I would like to be home for the stretch. Also, an extra 2 weeks of uninterrupted veg can only be good!
Additional details would be helpful, such as:

- Pot size (looks like a 5 gallon maybe, but don't make us guess)
- Define size of "full water bottle". Water bottles come in a dozen different sizes, from a tiny 4oz bottles to a 2.5 gallon bottle.
- Temperature at canopy level (not in a corner or on the side of your tent)

In general, I would recommend watering more frequently, just at lesser amounts. It's better to do it this way than to drown the plant every 5 days and then have it fight off drowning for 2-3 days and then be thirsty for the last 1-2 days.

I personally water every other day if my medium & pot size allows it. If circumstances allowed it I would be watering 2x a day at lesser amounts instead, but alas don't have the time.

BTW - the more stable watering schedules should also help with that low humidity. Maintaining a more stable supply of water in the environment should naturally raise that humidity and keep it stable.

90 deg F is way too hot. Humidity is too low. Put a wet towel in there. Long distance growing or delegating growing does not work. People are lazy. You never know if stuff is done unless you do it.

Put a wet towel in there to get the humidity up. Have your guy wet it and few times a day. It sounds silly but it works.

Wet a towel a few times a day? Your not going to beat 16% humidity with a towel. You need a humidifier

90 is on the high side, but if you have a fan above the canopy and I hope you do, its fine

You topped this plant 20+ times?. No nutes 90 degree and 15% rh. She suffered so long finally had enough You quit posting I'm sure she's dead

Not exactly, no need to jump to conclusions. You are correct though. I've topped her about 20 times. The temp throughout the ENTIRE veg. phase was always high and sometimes exceeding 90 degrees. As I said earlier, she is completely organic and does not require any extra nutrients. The low humidity has also been a problem that started many weeks ago.

I never quit posting, I have just been out of town. Can't really do much when I have little to no communication back at home. This brings me back to my point that I have to make the best of what I got. Today, she is a little under-watered and showing some stress but she's defiantly alive and looks like she will be just fine :bigjoint:. I'm lucky shes alive and will be nursing her back myself until she is healthy enough to flower. Hoping to go 12/12 sometime over the next week.

Here are some pics I took yesterday, Day 70 veg.

Some people get nasty for no good reason.. best to ignore them.

Glad to see the plant survived! So in the end, was overwatering the issue? :D

Hey guys, just wanted to share a quick update on the progress she has made over the past 5 days.
She looks to have made a full recovery and is now vegging stronger than ever. These photos were taken today, day 75 of veg.

I would like to move her onto the flower phase although I want to make sure that she can veg. enough to fill the scrog.

Enjoy the pics!
