So i had this G13 plant....wanted to transplant into a bigger pot before flowering...during the transplant i had ripped half the roots by accident, the bottom roots were held on by lime 2 or3 roots... Transpanted it and hoped it would survive...anyway a week goes by, it hasnt died so im happy...the next day i goto water it and the thig is falling over but not dying..tie it up and everything seems tobe good..


about halfway through the ,flowerig. Processi im noticing fan leaves are easily pulled off, even whe there was still some green in them, buds ar e growing nicely and are rock hard...


So arou d the time im harvesting all. Fan leaves are now gone , im nlticing the sugar leaves are easiay just pulled off...like a firm tug will do it..... As im pulling the sugar leaves off im noticing that where the buds are connected its not a thick stem but what It looks like after 3-4 days drying....anyway easily tugged off as well


Trimmed the plant, dried, jarred..blah blah blah.... Noticed it took half the time to dry... Ayway checked/burped the jar for 3 days. And today, the 4th day decided to smoke some, its like the cure cut its time in half.....tastes good, not harsh, i figure the cure will be done in 4 more days....has thisa happened to anyone else? What the heck ahappened? Is it cuz it wasn t gettting alot of water? Grant ed the buds are big. Prib have 2 zips dry after the fact

Well its never a good sign if you can pull the fan leaves off that easily, especially if the sugar leaves fall off as well. Sounds like the plant may have suffered from transplant shock and never fully recovered. Without roots it can't uptake water and nutrients so your theory is accurate. If the smoke turned out good then all is well :)

Lol. It IS funny... Lol. I didnt give up though..this thing was a pain to grow and i cursed it and myself everyday but in the end.... The buds didn't lose potency and turned out well so no complaints other then a pain to grow... I agree prob never recovered from shock lol...

Uptake of phosphorous and potassium (and all else but those are the VIP flowering nutes) was interrupted by not only transplanting but doing it crudely. Adding silica to your medium helps strengthen stems.

You are so right... I ended up doubling up on nutes one feeing and the plant seemed to get stronger.. But i was so close to harvest it didn do much
