Better too little than too much. At least this is fixable without drastic action lol. Next water will be a strong bloom feeding with a little supplemental N.

I would still add the lake water couldn't hurt
I'm not totally sure lake water is good for potted plants, it will introduce foreign bacteria and funghi but i suppose the good funghi in the soil probably keep these at bay. I dont know though. Peace

They aren't potted now though! Anyway... update.

2 mornings now I've checked them and an armadillo has apparently been digging at the edges of one of the plants... of course it's the one that was having problems so now I can't be sure what's causing what! I took about a cu. foot of top soil and put a 2-3" layer around all the plants and gave them all about a gallon each of water. A lot of the wilted leaves pulled off easily.. so I went ahead and plucked a lot of the worst looking leaves. The one with the previous severe problem doesn't seem to be showing the same problem, looking more like a general N deficiency. Hopefully this top soil that is loaded with humus and mycco will help make something available.

All the growth that was lime green the before transplanting is now dark green. The buds smell like something you would buy. I hope they make it!

Oh, and it's been 105+ every day for weeks.. and they still seem to be trucking along despite living a sheltered life of 80 degrees. (101 when I took these pics this morning, heat index of 108..)

I dnt think anything in the lake water would hurt em you have to think their are outdoor growers who use straight lake and river water all the tyme and they usually all have nice harvest so i say the good outweigh tha bad

Yer my bad, was thinking indoor when i said it, smoking too much godamn weed!lol! Growing plants is hard enough let alone keeping up on rollitup!lol! Should contain some good microbial life for the outdoor soil. Peace

No lake water. I didn't have time to do anything yesterday. I looked at them and they were wilted really bad. Not droopy,wilted and dry. I had no way to water them until this morning and they were back to normal. The other day they got plain RO water and today they got a bunch of food. About 5-10-10 worth of GH Flora series. Not designed for soil, but it works. Snapped a few pics. Got a lot of yellow leaves, likely from N def. due to flowering.

Smells hella dank too. When the wind blows right I can get a whiff of them from 100+ yards away. Only 3-4 weeks of flowering too.. I can't wait until the swell period.

Yeah they are super sturdy, even after the transplant. I'm surprised they made it as well as they did. I just hope they don't yellow up completely before they are ripe.
