Bad, Bad nutrient burn. Using dr.earth amendments.

Sun and direct 100° probably cooked that little gal. Next time , you can run some plants under sun screen mesh to temper brutal sun on an emerging plant . The transpiration alone in those temps. Heavy fert use will salt that medium up too when plant is just trying to hydrate. Plus the fact that plant will never exhaust that much fertilizer at once. You can see the torching leaf ( what’s left ) .

Pull plant - re-use soil / cut it with plain potting soil to temper the overfeed.

Start over. That plant is barely a cone’s worth if that.

100 degrees didn't do that. Overfertilization did.

Most likely will keep not much work to do with it other than water tf out of it haha

Looks fire asf bro. question then…When do you personally add nutes in?
Ya, I'd keep it going. It's a learning experience. Water it really good, and water it often. If the soil is hydrophobic add a wetting agent.

Nobody will kick you over any garden goof ups , it happens.

Every grow is a learning experience. Next time - streamline your grows - run plant on Happy Frog alone upfront / water only. Let plant sandbox itself in its new home and begin to feed from medium. As time goes on start with the feed dose recommended ( 1-2 tbl ) scratched into topsoil as the weeks go on. Once a week to start , allowing fertilizer to breakdown and become available to plant , then feed at intervals to maintain.

Not only will plant prosper without excess - you will save money by not wasting product.

Exactly. That's why I keep saying he needs to water it more.
Thing with organic dry amendments is you can’t really flush them out like salts, watering more is just gonna break them down more, they’re not soluble like salt based fertilizers you can’t wash them away.

this is good advice. Learn and it’s not a loss ya know? The soil is the main expense so reuse it!

Kinda. But you can flush it somewhat. As the microbes break down the nutes, you can remove some excess by watering until runoff. And some organic dry amendments can be flushed out easier than others.

Watering more often will also make the nutrients less concentrated.
