I have this very ugly plant for 8 weeks now and it suffered a lot the past weeks, lost it’s color and only leafs near the buds are green-ish. Should i keep growing her and see what happens or it won’t amount to much? I’m removing old brittle leafs and noticing a little bit of fattening. ![IMG_0761](https://social.growithjane.com/uploads/default/original/3X/6/7/67b4f368638cb5395447dd8638d4f147f89d1e72.jpeg) ![IMG_0760](https://social.growithjane.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/4/f45f18c4016a5a4597cdef7a57144c2e4f971927.jpeg) ![IMG_0758](https://social.growithjane.com/uploads/default/original/3X/d/d/dda7cd2b553e9399ff92be1363176106d8150e03.jpeg) ![IMG_0759](https://social.growithjane.com/uploads/default/original/3X/c/b/cb3d76a96126bdc95b8caa07df0cb07c96e48ee8.jpeg) ---

I’m not very good at diagnosing but it’s definitely stressed. What nutrients, what size pot, what type of medium? ---

> [@Mjcalifornia](#): > > m not very good at diagnosing but it’s definitely stressed. What nutrients, what size pot, what type of medium? It’s a super soil + amendments. The other plant in the tent grew in the same medium and turned out alright, it’s currently drying, but this one is a different genetics - maybe more sativa - and seems to be taking a loooong time to properly flower. First pistils appeared around week 3/4 while the harvested one showed pistils by the 2nd week. I think i may take up to 8 more weeks to finish and i’m wondering if it’ll turn out OK or am i gonna have some weak plant with almost no thc/cbd. ---

Yeah, it’s probably just one of those strains. Hazes are like that for sure. As for the soil, @BluntForceTrauma420 is a living soil expert ---

It looks like its just running short of nutrients in the soil and starting a bit of a fade process. Sativa heavy strains or strait sativas can go for 12+ weeks sometimes (why i don’t normally grow them),so i would let it go another couple of weeks after topping up the food and see how it looks then ---

I agree with @Crackadoo it looks like it’s early fade or hunger. ---

I would definitely not pull the plug yet and give it a chance to recover after feeding. It looks like it’s still pushing pistols which is a good sign ---

Maybe try checking the runoff pH if there’s any after feeding? See if it’s in the correct range? ---

Update: Plant definetely developed a bit and there’s almost none white pistils left. Looking through the microscope, the trichomes are getting whiter. ![IMG_0838](https://social.growithjane.com/uploads/default/original/3X/5/5/55b301c8fba10c79c2b04da1e05cd3e3ae4950bc.jpeg) I gave her a refeed and a little bit of sugar molasses.
