my baby is 3 months old and is 3 feet 2 inches in height. I was growing it hydroponically with two air bubblers a dual aqua pump and a storage tote using petes all purpose plant food but they just started not looking so good. Droopy leaves thats it, really droopy leaves. so i transplanted it yesterday the 13th back in soil. i live in louisiana so we gettn prewtty bad weather now and the humjidity sucks. So i know that its not an overwatering problem, what could it be? And no my leaves havnt lost color they are still dark green... please any advice will be appreciated

That plant is in bad shape... keep it out of direct sun for as long as possible, but make sure it gets 2-3 hours worth. At first glance, I'd say over watering is a huge issue, but the leaves may just be displaying shock. Did you water the soil into the roots real well with no air pockets? Thats a really small pic, but I think I see Nitrogen deficiency.

I had transplanted a plant and it went totally limp, I left it alone and behold 3 days later it perked back up,I would stop ferts and watering, almost looks like root rot,what kind of soil is it in,if just regular dirt could be a lot of clay in it and could be holdin water from draining properly, dig hole get good potting soil and stick it in there,don't water.best of luck my friend,u live and learn, shit even life is trial and error....

Bring it in doors and put it under your lights,do not feed it any more nutrients. get your fan on it blowing gently.I cant tell if its still in the veg state or if its flowering? Adjust your lights to what ever stage the plant is in.

It was in hydro when it wilted? What color were the roots?

Brown? White?

It sound like severe root rot.(Reservoir temperatures should never get over 70 degrees. 65 is better.)

You may be able to save the plant, but you'll hate doing what's necessary.

First, get a bottle of Rootone powder. Mix a tablespoon in a gallon of water, and drench the soil in the pot.(Rootone contains a very effective fungicide)

Second, remove half the branches. This takes the stress off the root system. Take care to leave any branches that are doing better than the rest.

Mist her hourly, until she shows definite improvement. Keep her in the shade.

I don't know how severe the rot problem is. Even with these extreme measures, it may not revive. Your pic indicates serious problems.

Good luck!

It really looks like a problem with roots. I agree. If they were not brown and shriveled before they are now. Healing the roots asap is all you can do
