Is This Plant Weird?

Sadly, hybridlove is probably right that that plant is damaged on a level far beyond just its appearance and slow growth. Chalk that one up to experience!

better luck next time man! Id suggest looking around online for some high quality seeds for your next grow.

just make sure you water them moderately, letting them dry slightly between, use at least 60w of CFL or MH light per plant, and read other grow logs across the site!

Well, I have placed her inside a confined space with a radiator warming up the spot - don't worry, it's perfectly safe... I will try to make her lighting days more regular and I will keep staring at her for long periods of time, so that she knows I love her!

I'm not giving up on her!

Thats very brave but you are probably wasting your time on that plant and what you refer to as a her, might yet turn out to be a him and you won't know this for another couple of months, even if you do manage to put life back into it!
So you might end up raising a genetically fucked up male plant for half of a year, and even if female you will be lucky to produce much to smoke due to its very stressful life.

In 3 months, indoors, a plant should have gone from seedling to fully harvested 4ft tall plant with a 1 inch stem thickness, with loads of sticky buds all over the plant, some of them the size of your fist.
Yours has grown 4 inches and if the leaves are this deformed, imagine what the buds will be.

If you do things correctly, you could have a new plant from seed, exactly the same size as your current plant, in 4 weeks at the most.

You are all very nice and i do believe in what you say - the probabilities of her surviving are very low. However, things might change. As to being male or female, since I can't know for sure, I have to have faith.

She looks more peaceful now that a slow hot wind is blowing in her direction for 6 her 12 hour lighting day.

Here are the photos of her new spot. Since the plant is kind of dancing to the warm breeze of the radiator, the pictures might appear a bit shaky.

Is there light some CFL of normal light ?
This plant really be bigger if it's been a few weeks in this state, maybe you're not giving it enough light !
What is your cycle ? 16/8 - 18/4 - 24/0 ?
I guess you can try to give it a 24/0 for a while just to get back the time lost before without the good temp.

could be worse. I wasted 4 months before I was finally able to learn from my errors and able to keep a plant alive up to the point to where it was mature enough to be sexed.

Definitely chalk it up to expierence. While I'm frustrated at the time lost I feel it has definitely helped turn my thumb from a death inducing black one to a slightly pale yellowish/green thumb.

You'll get there, everyone always says "It's just a weed... you don't need to do much to it." and they're all right but you have to gain a knowledge base for when problems do start arising.

Good luck on your next batch of plants.

I don't know what kind of lights they are - they are what we call "economic lightbulbs", they do not generate much heat, consume less electricity and emit what seems to be a whiter light than regular light bulbs.

I will follow Lucy Fern's advice and put the plant on a 24/0 cycle. I hope I can sleep with the lights on

[hybridlove420]

by the sounds of it those are CFL bulbs, which is good.

Well... A long time as passed and I sure am happy I didn't "chalk it up to experience"

When the lower leaves died, I cut them off with a little knife and slowly the plant has become more.. dense?

See for yourselves and bear in mind that 3 months have passed since the last photos. I'm really looking forward to read your thoughts on my beloved plant.

Thank you in advance :thumbsup:
