Over watering in soil can take a long to recover from. Drench the pot and the roots can't function. Now the pot dries mostly because of evaporation, but it dries top down so the actual root zone stays too wet for a long time. Roots die because of lack of oxygen and plant is still stunted even though proper moisture is restored. This also easily leads to a cycle where the top part of the pot dries and the grower waters the plant again, but things get worse and worse since the root zone was already wet.The plant that is has done the poorest has only been fed once, 9 days ago with 1 gallon of water/feed and but it is not drinking. Pot is still heavy. In fact the two others which I just fed two days ago are lighter than the plant I feed 9 days ago...that is the real yellow one in the back.
I have had watering problems for most of this grow, but believe I am dialed in now. And personally yes- these plants look Nitrogen depleted.
