Frying Roots
January 17 – I had been struggling with low temps and high humidity. She’s already stressed, root-bound, droopy yellowing leaves, and dark purple stems. She went into a 5 gal fabric pot and the bound roots broken up a little.
January 25 – not really bouncing back, not taking any water and the pot is staying wet
January 28 – gave up on waiting for her to dry back, pulled her out, rinsed the roots and repotted her (I was in a mood LOL)
January 31 – Weird, torturing her didn’t seem to fix the problem? The leaves are CRISPY. I flushed her with pH’d tap+RO. The EC of the initial runoff was about 4.9. She hadn’t received food for at least a couple weeks. I flushed her until the EC of the runoff was < 2.0 and then topped it with a light feed. After a dry back, she received some Stash Blend.
February 8 – Happy to report she took a full feeding, some of the yellowed leaves actually softened and greened up, some of the nodes that were nearly black and woody are turning green, and new growth has green stems for the first time in a month!
I’m consuming the previous harvest of this plant, and it’s not even that great. I’m probably culling it, but I’m glad I saw her through my errors.

Been there many times. Great work even if you decide to cull 💚
