I had to leave my plants in someone's care for about three weeks.. Upon returning one of my Hash Plants looks terrible.. leaves starting at the tips and turning brown..my friend that was taking care of my plants in my absence said he thought it could be root rot and re-potted with better drainage..but that doesn't seem to be fixing the problem..my other plant (Both clones grown outside and taken care of the same way minus the re-potting) looks much better than the sick one though some of her leaves do have dry/ brown spots on the tips..been trying to research to fix the problem..is the one thats in terrible shape salvageable? if so what can I possibly do to save her? and what do I need to do to take better care of my "healthy" looking one so that she doesn't look like the sick plant? any help would be greatly appreciated:what:

looks to me like your caretaker let them get too dry...saw the wilty leaves drowned them with water...left them in the sun while they were still wilty causing the burns and excessive amount of dry leaves....jmo!

here's how you look at it as i had to leave my grow for 3.5 weeks in the care of another and things were not as i expected BUT i got more than shutting down completely and starting from scratch!! :thumbsup:

could it be a nitrogen deff? the PH appears to be between 7.0 and 7.5..

I go with stra8. Somebody forgot to water your plant. Then tried to "make it up" with repotting and overwatering.

Nitrogen? no need this at this stage. Do you live in a humid area? Also your PH is a bit high. But I think it is a symptom, not a cause.

Just a WAG.

Good luck.

Another vote for underwatering.
...or did someone get lazy and use the pool water? <DOH>

Resume normal waterings, and feed per manufacturers instructions.

Fox Farms offers a weekly feeding schedule that's difficult to screw-up. The link is in my signature.

I would take it. She is beyond hope. In a couple of weeks all outdoor plants here will start to strech out. You simply do not have enough time. Take it and be happy your "friend" didn't mess up your other two.
