Looks dry - undernourished- sun stressed.
Feed it properly / place it under partial sun / water it.
If it tries to recover , fine. If not , cull it.

Dead goldfish ? Ok.
Should have peed on it instead. Guarantee it would have thrived.

Not too beat on the guy but very interested in the goldfish “ soil amendment “ - was it something done online ? Or some ol wives tale ?
I know we do use fish products in fertilizer just curious ? Decay smell ? Bugs ? Cats ?

Goldfish! What bunk. You need menhaden!
But then again, what works for corn might not work for weed.
From wikipedia "Menhaden have historically been used as a fertilizer for crops. It is likely that menhaden is the fish that Squanto taught the Pilgrims to bury alongside freshly planted seeds as fertilizer."

Hmmm. I am curious if throwing a dead goldfish at a dying plant is going to work or not. I would suggest watering (without) banana peels, goldfish, etc. and using a nitrogen rich fertilizer so the plant can grow. Get a truncheon and ph meter if you don’t have already and measuring your ppms going in and out the bottom. But I think its time to change up your strategy. Or.. there are many dispensaries in California to buy.

So when growing organic you need to let the red worms feed off of the fish and it could take up to 3 months for composting to break down, before you're plants can absorb the nutrients look up composting, and as for the banana peals you could also use that when composting or you could brew up some teas with an air stone but first you need aeration to you're water for 48 hours then throw in your banana peals or any type of seeds that you sprouted look up sst "seed sprouted teas".. @Hope that h
elps points you in the right direction!

Some chicken mcnuggets will boost the yield.
Pull that moisture meter out of that desert dry soil and trash it. water it regularly, feed it a bit. that alone will help. Check the weight dry, then water check the weight at field capacity (fully watered). then water it before it gets to this crazy dry weight. probably like 2 days at most between water.
