Plant dying at the end of flowering

150w hps, using bio-bloom for fert, i suppose the roots have no more room to grow but i really don't know, somebody save her pls.
 
Holy shit

Can you give more info? Like ec/ppm? Ph? Temps? Strain? It looks pretty bad, you arent going to get much out of this, I'm seeing extreme foxtailing, like you overfed them way too much for way too long

It's foxtailing because it's a pure sativa. Or almost pure sativa.

You should try to revegetate this plant. It's a very special plant. I like her a lot.
Put it under 18 hours of light. The revegetation can take up to 2 months so you must be patient.

You should also transplant her into a bigger pot with fresh soil. You can try adding some fermented compost or other organic fertilizers. Check the organic subforum.

Did you find more seeds of this strain in the compressed weed you bought?

Yea, i got three more.

The top of the plant looks like it's still alive. So if you're lucky maybe you can revegetate her. Good luck!

You should germinate the remaining 3 seeds and try to reproduce this strain pure and then sell some seeds on seedbay. I'm sure people will buy it. I know I would ;)

i use fermented compost actually, fogot to say that, i made a recipe i saw in a brazilian growing forum, will revegetating her be worth it?, i've had this plant since november.

Yes it will be worth it because then you will have 4 plants to make your reproduction of this strain. Otherwise you will only have 3 plants and that is a smaller genepool.
Of course it's up to you to decide. You can also make a reproduction with only 3 plants but what will you do if they're all male? Then you will wish you had revegetated this beautiful female.

When reproducing a strain it's better to work with as many plants as possible to guarantee a big genetic diversity.

You can try cutting the lower buds that already died.
Don't cut too many buds though as this can be detrimental to the revegetation process.
You can cut all the buds in 1-2 months after the revegetation has taken place.

The stronger the light intensity, the faster the revegetation will happen.

Can you say anything about the effect of this plant?

no offense to eye above

but do yourself a favor and cut that shit down and call it a loss. order some fire genes read more here on the mag and when you figure out a solid regime pop those seeds and get to growing again.


reveg i wouldnt on this girl just my 2 cents plenty of good seeds to try out there

i can't order seeds, my country is very strict in this type of stuff, the best i could do is go down to uruguay and buy some there but til them i'm stuck with compressed shit and they're very rare to have decent seeds, does anyone have a better ideia? i wanted to save her but if i can't i'll just cut her down.

I say work with what ya got. You can cut all that is dead leave all that is green. If you leave at least one nug and give 24 hr light eventually it will re-veg. I would also check to verify grow space is free of light leaks it looks like re-veged leaves on parts and the reveg process is usually started with foxtailing and then normal vegetative growth. I have seen due to light failure on a re-veg and going back into flower 2 weeks after reveg can give you a 6 inch foxtail after being put back in veg a week later it recovered and veged like normal. If you plan on running those beans or re-veging and she show this trait again you could put this shit on a predator mask and you already got a name.

Eye, you are saying this is a "very special plant". Why is that, if you don't mind me asking?

The plant dying like that is probably because she reached the end of flowering. They call it senescence I believe.
Your only option is to transplant in larger pot with fresh soil and initiate the revegetation process by giving her 18h of light.

No! Don't cut her down. You will regret it :)
Why would you want to order seeds if you've got 3 more seeds of this beautiful strain? You just need to reproduce it and make thousands of seeds with your 3 or 4 parental plants. The seeds that you can order will not be as beautiful and as special as this plant. Believe me.
Just do your best to revegetate her and also germinate the other 3 seeds so you have something to work with in the meantime.

Yeah don't cut too much or she will die. The more green parts you leave on it the more chances she has of actually revegetating. Just cut the dead parts on the bottom.

And 24 hours of light is nonsense. 18 hours of light is totally sufficient.

She looks very special to me. Just look at her. She's a beauty.
She could be THE one ;)
