I need to save the plant

Here it is, I got two plants growing in a 5 gallon (best estimate) pot, bad thing is that they are right next to each other (should of thought about this before I moved them to this pot) One plant is doing jus fine, buds everywhere, crystals all over them and I jus saw the first trichomes turn amber. So that plant is on its way to be really good smoke (this is my first time and I didnt even know what type of strain it is, Im pretty sure now its Diesel) Here is the problem, the other plant isnt doing that good. At first it was budding way better than the other one (the Diesel), but the buds (the little sacks that hold the white hairs) aint growing, the buds aint getting covered with crystals and the plant isnt producing the right leaves now, the leaves are now curving and deformed (Im gona add a couple pics saw yall can get a rough view of what IM talking about). Ive come to find out that the deformed plant is turning out this way because it is not strong enough to fight the other (the Diesel) for the decent amount of food it needs form the soil. So my question is should I move the deform plant to another (smaller) pot, and can I move it??? The plants are so close together that the roots might be entangled so moving one might hurt the other, but there is a chance that there not entangled, so I am asking should I move the deform plant to another pot?? please I need some feedback :confused:

The second plant is probably getting worked by the stronger one. Taking all the light and nutes from the soil.

I'd say you probably have to repot one of them. leave the strong one alone, let him do his thing. Take the weak one and translpant, that way if it does die at least you saved 50%.

ahh, what a perdicament. with the massive root developement of weed, chaces are the roots are intangled. transplanting either one could be a fatal mistake. if you are using nutes, try feeding more nutes to the side furthest away from the deisel. if the weak plant is being sheltered from light, try tieing the main stem to a stick pulling it away from the other plant.this will train it to grow to free space were light can get to it. if all else fails, take the best clippings you can find off that plant, kill it and start over. hopfully it wont come to that though, best wishes

wow.

what you do is make your own damn thread or read through the 1000's of other posts that ask that same thing.


you realize you replied to a thread that is two years old, and asking a question that has nothing to do with the original post?

You could also look into foliar feeding to help the sick plant along. It's pretty safe as long as you have a decent oscillating fan sweeping across them. Plus, avoid soaking the buds so you don't risk getting bud mold. If you are a little careful and hit the plant thoroughly, it should help quite a bit. When you do it, if the plant is really bad, make sure you spray it down a couple times at each session, instead of hitting it just once. Other than that, I don't think you have too many other options. Als, as mentioned, it would be a good idea to try and feed that side a little more, but I'm not sure it'll work out like that. Hmm....
