It looks to be well into flower so she will need a lot less nutes as she has stopped growing to focus on the flowers. Nitrogen promotes everything green, phosphorous promotes the amount of flowers being set and potassium promotes the quality of the fruits/flowers. At this stage she still needs a little bit of everything but potassium is the main element. In NPK ratios I'd say about 1:1:2 at about 500-600ppm, reducing it to 0 for the last 2 weeks before harvest. Big fat disclaimer that this is a simple growers' guess so take it with a grain of salt amd requires some standard tools like a TDS meter. Personal experience is the best teacher.

What you can do to get an estimate of her age is to get a jewelers loop, x30mag and check the trichomes on the buds. They will either be clear, milky, amber or a mix. This will help us give you a more defined answer on what to do. If you could also make a pic like that, that would be perfect. Example

I gotta say I guess this plant has been through so much stress and chucked about all over from yard to cupboard with light, she's been pruned too much and shed now even starting to dry out.

All iv been doing is watering her from the tap every two days or so, 12 on 12 off and leaving her.
Light has got 600 bulb in but mechanical bit only let's out 250 that's all I know.

It's an experiment and experience for me and a lesson I hope. Next time il go 3 plants and fit the extractor fan I've got

You need to look at it in natural light. If it was outdoors, it may have pest damage or mold. If the flowers look brown, or like they're drying, it might be Botrytis.

No he grew it himself along with another as an experiment with his son in his yard over the summer.
Decided to go on a mad one relapse ran out of money and sold his values I guess.
He's actually a decent chap just not when he's on the pipe just like millions of others.

Less on him.anyway anymore advice on boosting this wee lady

Chop it dry it cure it and smoke it. Start over

There is no.flowers on it apart from little wee ones but before it got butchered and pruned too much, it looked healthy, it looked well considering it was an outdoors plant.
Soon as I put it under light though she sprouted and I could see the difference in days.
She just looks bad cause her leaves have been pruned off.
Her buds seem okay but far from as good as I see others, I just wanted advice on if there was anything im able to do to help her out and a boost in somewayn

👆🏼 exactly what he said 💚

Thats not going to bounce back or get any bigger at this point. Chop, dry and enjoy 👍🏼

Not even the buds now either. Is at uts final stage like

From all the abuse its taken, I would not be worth keeping it around any longer. You do not want any cuttings from that plant, its not healthy enough to do so. Find a few clones or seeds and start another grow. Of you want better advice, include better pictures....its very difficult to help if all we see is yellow lighting. Take a few and practice just as lights out and use your camera's flash. 👍🏼

Ye you got options now. You can take the L and cut it up to dry entirely, get some new seeds or cuttings and start over. You could let it go as long as you want with the added risk of some disease taking her out for you. She is extra susceptible to molds, fungus and bugs if the conditions are bad. But you do know what to do if you wish to ride it out just for the hell of it.

I dont think cutting now would yield anything worthwile, imo.

All that bad stuff aside I hope you had fun growing nonetheless and will keep trying 😄

Howdy! Plant is pretty far along and not much you can do at this stage but give it water and light. I wouldn't even waste my fertilizer on it. Whoever grew it probably didn't put it in a good location for light as evidenced by the airy "larfy" bud growth. Looks like it was topped once and branched nicely from that. Without adequate leaves, it doesn't have much to work with for photosynthesis. For your next plant (that you grow on your own), you'll want to keep fan leaves happy and while you want to trim a plant for good light and airflow, you also want to make sure you leave enough for the plant to work with and account for what you might lose from screw ups with feeding, bugs or even blunt trauma. There will be plenty of time to get into that if you stick around and want to have the community help you grow. For now, just give that thing appropriate water and light and keep an eye on it. We can't see the colors right with the images, but when you stop seeing new hairs growing and the ones on it start to darken or appear like they're drying out, you're getting close to harvest time and then you will start checking under magnification for the little bulbous things on the surface of buds to change from clear to milky or amber.

That thing would be impossible to clone that far into flower and with no fans. Maybe a tissue culture would work. Above my pay grade. 🤣

Hole this helps but I understand now what you all mean by natural light.
I see more dead colour around the buds within the small leafs with the bulb switched off.
Let us know folks for the last time afterwards I probs will just chop her off and see how she smokes

I have reveg'd in late flower with my super cloner. Too a month to root, 2 months before it reached the point to flower.

I agree with the Viking, new seed will produce much faster.. good luck!

I've never gotten a clipping to root that was taken a month or later into flower. I take/make monsters up to 3 weeks after flip and those can take up to 2 months to take root. Because of the amount of time to root and the hormone stress you sometimes run into that takes even more time to stabilize, monsters are more of a novelty than an effective method. I still love playing with them though!

Proof is in the pudding with the super cloner. BritCoin clone 6months into flower. It was brutal. Thank goodness I got one seed. Can't wait 12 months fer a plant again.

Truthfully, later down the road you'll look back and see you already kinda have what you're gonna get. Gotta start right and support them all the way.
