Nitrogen Overdose? Or other Deficiencies?

My plant seems to being going to shit. Can anyone tell me what's going on? I'm on about week 4 of flowering with little pre-flowers showing but all the pistils coming out have very little to no trichomes. I'm using natural light to flower. Plant is in a 3 gallon pot using plain soil. Haven't put any flowering fertilizer in yet because this problem has been getting worst for the past month. I did add worm castings a while back, but not too sure if that's the issue. There is almost no bud growth. I checked the PH today and it's around 6.8-7. I have a feeling it could be a build up of salts in the pot or a high dosage of Nitrogen. I just flushed the plant and it seems to look much better. You can see the details from the photos. Change within 5 minutes. Not too sure what to do next. Any help?

it looks to me like it needs a drink. if it was over fertilized i would expect to see some burn on the leaves.

i have missed out on watering a plant before and it looked just like that.

you def let that pot dry out, the more i look at pic 2 and 3 i can see the droop is 100% due to not being watered, after being flushed you can see it already start to perk back up. sadly many of the plants cells have been damaged and they weill never return to full turgidity.

When is the last time you watered before the flush? How often do you water? Sounds and looks dry.
Why are you looking for trichs on the pistils?

I flushed the plant yesterday and it seems to be doing better. But i'm not too sure why the leaves are curling inwards or on its sides. Really Weird.

no look here at the leaf signs. you will realize its just from either underwatering. ma ybe u mixedd your soil too light maybe it needs a transplant. know your plant and dont let it do that ever again! its like watching a little kid. You gotta keep an eye on it but its actually really easy to get a healthy plant if you give a little more attention to what may be going wrong here https://www.rollitup.org/marijuana-plant-problems/488004-guide-nutrient-deficiency-toxicity.html
