Plant is 1 month old and is not doing well. Growing outdoor/on the porch when it pours. Its growing in the Florida summer sunlight when outdoors and its very hot so I water it twice a day with MG water solution. Its in a 5 gallon planters bucket. Using jungle growth potting soil with water retaining crystals. Feeding it with MG all purpose plant food 24% N. The plant has not been able to stand up so I put chopsticks in the bucket to prop it up but it still cant stand up. Leaves are now browning/yellowing. Its growing very slowly. Help me figure out whats going on and if you need any more info let me know. Thanks

Looks as if you been over feeding......hence the slow growth.....shiny leafs and burnt tips....and she looks a little over watered too........you might need to do a little research start here https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/ and here https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/

Definitely too much food. That thing won't need anything til it's at least 12" tall(and bushy), more like 18". Don't worry about how old it is, in reguards to feeding, it's meaningless. Look at the size of the plant, then look at how much soil is in that pot, and think about how many nutes that tiny plant uses. If that plant was to remain that small, there would be enough nutes in that pot to sustain it for like 2 years, not including what you've already added.LOL
Seriously, if you want to save it, flush it, than wait for it to recover. It'll take awhile, because the soil will stay wet for a long time, stalling the plant. It'd be much faster if you transplanted to a smaller pot, but tricky, because you'd have to be really careful not to damage the roots too bad. Tough call.

I would soil it right to the cyts.P.S. One more thing....if you add another inch of soil(approx) it'll help the plant stand up better. It's looking pretty flimsy, don't want it to fall over on ya.
Just don't keep the soil soaked, of the stem could rot.
