Smoke before flower?

One of my plants is not doing very well, I broke it's tap transplanting it, and it's struggled ever since, and is stunted (about 6 inches in height).

I'm going to take it out and dump it and start 12/12 on the other two which are doing great - both about 13" - very lush, perky and bushy :mrgreen:

This plant I'm about to throw out, some of the leaves are healthy - is it worth drying them and smoking it? Is there any THC at all in the veg phase?

I know it won't be a great smoke, but I have been dry for 3 years... so - smoke it or dump it?

Clones? Females? How old is the 6" plant?

I rarely toss a plant. Just doesn't seem right..unless HE has my ladies in his sights...

the runts can fool ya. Yes..they stunt..but at some point..it will take off if you let it get that far. Often the runts will branch out and take on a different shape than the others but will still bud and rock on...

if you've been dry for 3 years..why have the first hit you take taste like it came off the bottom of yer lawn mower?

good luck..whatever you do

I don't think it'll make it though man, I ain't gonna be able to keep the lamp close enough to it and give enough clearance to two plants that are more than double it's size.

All 3 are fem hopefully (Nirvana Snow White fem seeds)

I would still put it in there with the others.
It may stretch a little. ( I agree I would focus the lights on the best plants and set this one as close as possible)
If it turns out to be a female you will thank me.

They are fem seeds - so they better all be female! <fingers crossed>

They were all germed at the same time (19th April). I'm pretty sure this plant will die before it flowers.

Because I used to smoke daily, and ever since moving to the area, I can't get a hook up anywhere and because a hit like it came off the bottom of a lawn mower is better than no hit at all? :mrgreen:

The question is will I even get a hit or will it be like smoking a blade of turf?

Ahh hell no.
You better not kill it.
I would set it in a window or outside if you feel like you have to.

That would be a crying shame to kill a plant that should be female from decent seeds.

As far as smoking it now it will burn your throat and probally give you a headache from the chlorophyl.

Remember these plants will grow in spite of you in most cases.
Usually the more care you give them the more harm you do.

Happy growing...

If it grows enough to clone it you may save the plant.

Sorry..not harshin on ya about the harsh hit...just bein realistic.

I'm sure i'm not alone in wanting to see a pic of the plant....that'd help a bunch in saying "she's a goner" or "woah, nellie..."

always yer call though..ya know?

good luck

lol... I just realised... I ain't got any stuff yet. No papers, no bong, no pipe, no nada..

Ok, I'm gonna tear a leaf off, whack it under a hairdryer for 30 mins, grind it up and stuff it in a Marlboro Light somehow.

lol - this is gonna be funny... it's been sitting in a high nute solution so it's gonna taste like shit.

I'll report back. Unless I'm dead.

Ouch that sounds about like crushing seeds and smoking them (like we did as dumb highschoolers so many years ago)

Ok, so first two pics are the plant I am thinking of killing.

The last plant is the best of the 3.

Whaddya think?

Edited to add: Yeah, I know the lid of the reservoir is a bit dirty - and some algae here and there. I'm planning a dump and clean tomorrow before moving to bloom nutes.

she looks a bit rough...

I would trim all the funky/yellow/large leaves off and let that baby get some air and light down in there....change the res and go 1/2 strenghth on the nutes w/proper pH...

I'd give em all another few weeks before flippin em. Looks like an indica..all bunched up on itself...I had a Bubba kush doin that and TWISTING liike a mo-fo and I let her go...now she's a 3 x 3 ft bush!

what's anyone else say? get babygro over here.....

good luck

Sorry, I would have to know it is male before I would kill it.
I would flower it too.

Does this apply to a plant that is yellowing by the minute? Would you still wait it out and tend to it just to see what happens? Asking because thats whats going on w/my grow.

Well, I didn't dump the plant, but I did swipe a leaf and smoked 10% of it.

I don't have a headache, but I'm not stoned either. I think I might be a tiny tiny bit stoned. But it could be psychosomatic.

Guess there's only one way to know for sure. I'll smoke the other 90% :mrgreen:

I feel like they always have a chance to come back.
You just need to figure out what is wrong and right it.

What are your grow conditions BloodshotI'z?
What are you using for light,soil,hydro,or nutes?

Soil....I f*cked up and used MiracleGrow 3 month fert release (thats where I think I went wrong)....light...400w hps....no nutes as of now. But I did give a dose on one feeding before I knew any better (Mirace Grow Plant Food).

Now it's yellowing w/the quickness....but its still a young plant...going on week two after planting.
