I don’t think I would take it out of the pot unless I was going to transplant it. If you drill enough holes in the sides and bottom and get some airflow around and under, it will dry out eventually. Watering may not be the problem. But you have to start somewhere. Or they recover from under watering a hell of a lot faster than overwatering! We will see what happens!

I'll do that bro no need to take pics of the roots ? I squeezed the pot on the sides to move the soil around in the pot inside was thinking that it creates air pockets for roots to breath but will do holes tommrow asap and send you pics then you can say if it's enough holes thanks again bro

Sometimes depends on how hot it was more times then none I would say.

I would saturate the soil 100% every time I water, especially in the summer outdoors in a small pot.

When you irrigate, slowly add water until a lil run-off comes out of every drainage hole.

So this is the holes and this is how she is looking today much better perky I removed the leaves that was heavily damaged. Is this enough holes and is the size big enough or should I go higher 🤔? I made the holes where I felt the soil is wet. Thanks again bro 🙏 I made the holes yesterday

The more the better! Swiss cheese is the correct term of how the pots should look! As soon as I buy new pots I break out a 1/2” drill bit

(Small top holes on the 5 gals are for tie downs my soil line is just below where the handle attaches usually)

I would go 2/3 of the way up the pot. You can use a larger bit so you don’t have to spend so much time on it. Just punch a bunch of holes. Hopefully she was just staying a little too wet. it doesn’t hurt to elevate the pots a little to let airflow underneath.. Go easy on the food and cut back on the frequency of watering and keep your fingers crossed! Lol! Mike posted some good illustrations above.

Thanks bro will do that today larger holes and 3/4 of the pot. That pot does have feet on each corner so it is elevated from the ground say about 5cm to be exact. And it seems like it to me aswell checked on her this morning and she is still perky and new growth is starting again trained her and defoliated more I watered Sunday so I think she will be good till Sunday or Saturday will check daily on how she looks want her to dryback Completely then give her some mycos with water and saturate the medium and check again how many days it will take to drink it all up. Symptoms is not continuing so her feet was wet as you said thanks a mil bro @Oldchucky , @LexLuthor and everyone else that helped me to get her back on track I really appreciate you all 🙏 💯.

Will post a pic I about a week or so with a update I appreciate it yall thanks again and I've learnt alot in this small space of time.

Si is NOT the cause of your issue... when feeding are you using full strength as to what the bottle says???? When it comes to all bottle nutes... immediately cut their dosage recommendation in HALF!!! I think you have nutrient burn... I can see your fan leaf edges doing some major taco/curling

Just a update the problem was salt build up in the soil due to my bad watering habits and over fertilization and not watering till I get enough runoff and feeding with every watering. I am in the process of flushing to leech out the salt buildup and then rebuilding the soil again hope it's not too late since flower is around the corner and I posted the update so that other growers don't make the same mistake I did. I will post some pics later to show the signs of how it looks so if you see these symptoms you know what it is because it starts out looking like a Potassium deficiency then it will look like N toxicity but all the time its the salt buildup burning your roots . Thanks again guys I learnt alot from you

They don't look happy and healthy a happy healthy plant has its leaves pointed upwards. My first gues is overwatering/to much nutrients. Those pictures with the yellow brown leaves tell me your plant is not drinking enough. I would guess a root problem caused by to many watering and fertilizer.

And don’t let those black plastic pots get too hot in the sun! That is a surefire way to piss them off!

That's due to raining this weekend but it was 36c today so leaves heavy of the water she was in a very very bad state pale green black burnt tips

Just my 2cents, hot pots have been your problem all along. On a 90° day the soil will hit 140°+, cooks the roots, watering cools the soils temporarily but then the roots drown. Not a deficiency, the roots just cooked.

Well if it is due to the rain that they are drooping that much does your plant container has enough drainage ? If plants are kept in a medium that is to moist the water starts draining nutes from your root system. It's not just that one picture on all pictures they are drooping.
