So today i decided to make some changes.
I have placed my light on full spectrum (because apparently it should have been on this whole time) so now it looks like this.

I then changed my SCROG net from this:


to this


Took a while but i love the way it turned out.

I then created an easy drain systems that will keep me from waisting time filling buckets.



So far so good.

What's your lux meter on the phone saying now on the plant?I know it's not 100 percent accurate but it will give a base line idea.plant looks underfed prob because theres not enough light for it to consume.

I'm trying help You avoid several disappointing runs.
I have used mars & black dog.
I can tell You 1 thing for sure, small plants in Veg don't respond well to cheap chinese leds.
If You took a chance and threw a t5 over the plant for a week You would see for Yourself.

I agree but for now he might be on a budget so that might not be an option.If he cant get over 12k on a lux meter no amount of advice on the planet will help that plant.He will have to upgrade his light

I think the biggest issue with the plant right now is that its not transpiring anymore.
I believe more light will kill it at this stage IMO...
Goodluck Bro and don't give up if it does die replant and learn from this run.
Peace and happy growing
