Well I certainly would not give any nutes until it comes back and it may be to late if it has been stunted for that long chances are it may not recover. But you can try putting it in another bigger pot and don't compact your soil. let it breath. I wouldn't be surprised if your roots where yellow and bound looking even balled up in there,
Take off them really bad leaves that are really brown it isn't helping your cause, you have to many nutes in there and that is part the reason why it has become so stunted,
Just get some clean fresh soil bigger pot and hopefully she will recover, and at least you can have something to grow and admire.
Do not put anymore nutes into your soil until it comes back and gets about 7 inches taller or a lot busher.
Good Luck hope you get her fixed...... There is always Hope.
 
will repot again but dont think it has had time to grow into the new one already.

bear420 so not feeding the plant for that long will not hurt it anymore? removed the old dead leafs.

that is not really a choice for this one resinhound the plant this clone is from is gone there is no way to get this strain again unless it can grow and provide clones this strain has a unbelivible flavour and huge trichome development

sprayed everything with Azadirachtin A & B sprayed leafs and drenched soil will repeat in 3 days for 2 weeks

thinking of taking a cutting from one of the healthy nodes on the plant and rooting it in a different enviroment away from the grow area treating before it is placed in the soil

there is PH strips on the way currently so the PH will be revealed soon.

this plant has to live surley it has lived for so long there has to be something that can be done to save the genetics

I would n't feed it now It actually looks like it has had to many nutes at this time. So until it recovers No I wouldn't. and removing just the dead leaves not the ones that can come back, don't look like a lot but there is some. So how do your roots look then when you just repotted it? May be give it some time to adjust to the new pot and soil. This isn't a for sure deal, But it should help it recoup. IMO only it looks like it has had to much sprayed on it she needs time to get straight again.
It may need more light too. Hopefully you can get her to come back enough to get some clones off, the truth it isn't looking good but they are tough plants and can come back after this, It does happen. so Lets hope you can get her back.
BTW you said you have Used AZA, Did it have Mites? and if it does it is small enough to dip it if so.
I have not had one look like that but when I put my new cut and rooted clones in my small pots after my solo cups it only takes one to two weeks before they are root bound in a one gallon small pot, and quit growing all together.
but if your roots are not showing all over the bottom maybe just maybe the new dry soil will help her. I know to much moisture can stunt growth too.
Listen I hope you lady comes back, there is hope there as we can see in your pic. but getting her to liven up may be quite a experience.

Good luck

Too much water!!!! The gnats love the dead roots. Also Neem is a systemic so I would go easy with that since it spreads through the plant.

As far as feeding goes, I wouldn't be concerned with that I would let it dry up for awhile. Too much water is just as bad as too little.

Ohh the the yellowing is because N gets locked out in water logged soil.
I was going to say the same thing.

Gently dig it up. Rinse the dirt from the roots. Trim any dead and bad looking roots off. Rinse the roots again.

Cut off all yellow or dead growth.

Replant in a loose almost dry soil. Just moist.

Then leave it the hell alone for a few days.

Damn man. You ever step back to think that maybe drowning, over feeding, and spray crap along with other treatments was the problem?

The simpler the better.


Oh and this is one of the few times I reccomend a b vitiam product like super thrive. One drop to a gallon of water but don't water it for a few days after replanting.

Hey guys thanks for all the help everyone has provided me with,

Since my last post the plant has amazingly come back to vigor i don't know why it decided to do it now but i wont question her methods
i only watered once a week when the soil dried out and haven't given nutes at all since my last post also raised the lights by 6 inches

i am using vegetable grade soil from the garden store i asked for the best they had
the lights i am using are LED chips there are 4x 10 watt chips coming together as 40 watts
i am using power feed for vegetables see link here if you are interested: http://www.seasol.com.au/products/72/PowerFeed-for-Vegies

i have done 8 treatments with Azadirachtin A & B spraying all foliage and the top of the soil and there is not a single spider mites to be seen even under a magnifying glass
i also have not seen a fungus gnat since my 4th treatment with Azadirachtin A & B as a soil drench

but damn guys take a look at her!
shes looking so good now i cant thank you guys enough for all your help and you believing she will be okay i think it has honestly paid off

That. Less is more. You're "loving it to death".

The last couple pages of my thread actually shows me digging some up and trimming the roots and growth back and replanting.

Nice job. It only took a month. I might suggest you try some more easier and forgiving seeds. Like an auto from Dinafem or Sweet Seeds. Roadrunner and Speed Devil come to mind. And like the others stated. Just don't love it to death which is a common rookie mistake. I like that you followed through with it tho, I would have culled it and started over. Your learning bro. Nice bringing it back. It still looks pretty week tho. I would probably go ahead and flip it to 12/12. You won't get much smoke but, that plant has been through quite a lot. Anyway. Good luck.
 
Id say if u want to stop having issues with this an any other plantes u grow 2 very important things for any newbie make your own well drain soil or soiless mix and def. have a ph meter. I dont trust any garden pot mix sold, messes to much with your ph and bairly drains. With no ph meter it dont mater what u feed your plants youll never know what its consuming if ph is off.
