So I've posting a couple of pics and posts already seeing if I could fix my problem. I have a blue venom plant about 8 weeks in flowering. I know I messed up and gave it to much nutrients so I flushed it a week and a half ago but now the plant is still dying and not taking water. The tri's arn't ready yet but I've lost every leaf on it already now the bud leaves are starting to yellow so my question is should I cut my plant now before I loose it or will it be ok and the bud's will grow in just slower then usually? It's weird I watered it the other day with just a LITTLE bit of water cause it was semi dry and the water just ran right through and filled up my tray around my pot. It won't hold water and I can't find anything online anybody have any suggestions? This pic is from 5 days ago and most of the leaves you see are gone now :/ but the buds are sticky and semi red/clear tris

Flush it again, no more food, and don't pull any leaves, just let the dead ones fall off when they are ready.
Watch your trichs and pull when ready.

Wait, you have amber and clear trichs but no cloudy?
It looks like you have another couple weeks or more, but it should be able to hang on.
Just be patient, and remember with fewer fan leaves, it will grow slower.

Water running straight through is normal in any potted plant with a dry substrate. ... stop looking at this as something strange. Its the nature of water.

If you really want to water these plants well. Dunk in tap water bath. ... leave alone to dry out. about 3 days. then water again. ... job done.

edit:

Apart from the toxicity in the leaves the plant looks good. Should get some nice bud if you flush, dry and cure it well.

Agreed, flush with 3 gallons per gallon of pot and make sure drainage holes aren't plugged.

Thanks guys! I was tripping I was about to cut it thinking I was gonna loose all my buds. It's my first grow gotta mess up to learn I guess :) I'm going to flush it again and let it sit. So leave the fan leaves on? I pulled them all off when I got into budding my friend told me they needed to go guess I shoulda checked with you guys first.

The removal of fan leaves is a very big debate with multiple correct answers.. pulling them off when the plant is stressed / has issues is by no means beneficial though.

gotcha for my next grow I'm going to leave everything on. Now does the light affect the buds? Cause I thought pulling off leaves was good during flowering because I thought the big fan leaves were blocking the buds and all there little leaves? Should the buds be in the light or hidden?

Remove anything dead. or completely dried up and shriveled. If it aint got ANY green its only providing shade. .. Leave everything else, even the damaged ones, as they can still convert light into energy.

Amount of light vs area, and the thickness of the plant canopy will determine how much of it dense bud, and how much of it is more airy/popcorn-like. That said, there's more than a few methods that you can use to work around this, or you can add additional lighting to the sides as well.

Agreed on this, without question.. and Moebius, are you maxed out on likes or something? There's no like button on your post for me.

gotcha any tips on how to add light without buying more lights? I have a 600 HPS I've heard aluminum foil on the walls work also the bottom of pepsi cans to help reflect the light right on the buds. I was gonna do this but was afraid that much light would damage the buds. So the buds need as much light as possible to get those dense nugs?

Flat white paint is quite reflective... mylar, also reflective, panda film in a roll.. many choices. Do not use aluminum foil unless you just can't help it, and nothing else is in the budget.. can cause hotspots.

Right now it just has white dry wall but I would like to put a 2x4 grow tent in my closet ( I took everything out ) but they are so damn expensive I think I'm going to make my own one. My hydro store has a big sheet of the stuff the grow tents are made of for 10 bucks prolly just make mine I think the material will be better then dry wall. Speaking of likes how do you give them? I tried giving you guys some but I can't figure it out

The 'like' is in the lower right corner of the persons post, right just above the 'multi-quote' button.. which is to the right of the 'reply with quote'.. so go east, north from 'reply with quote' and you'll find the 'like'. :D As for the drywall, minimal to no reflectivity.. would definitely get reflective film or use the 'emergency blanket' material (which is mylar).. they're 3-5 bucks at Walmart.

likes are over to the right of each reply to each thread off by itself, as for the tent i paid $90, just for the tent 2x4x5, same as you want, although the whole setup in side the tent is where the money is, but still only about $600 for everything!!!!IMAG0448.jpg

When you don't see the 'like' button all that means is he posted while you were, almost at the same time.
Just refresh the page and you'll see it.Like_Bra.jpg

Wal Mart, camping section.
Emergency blankets, almost 6'x4' or something like that, $3 each.
