Made a post not too long ago about my girls... Went with some suggestions and tried to give them a nice terp tea with some worm castings to feed them a bit, but it doesn't seem to have been very successful :( been about 8 days since I gave them the tea and had a plain watering afterwards as well and these girls just keep getting worst and worst. So I'm out of ideas and am afraid they might die soon, should I just harvest what I have now?

Feed. The plants have no reserves now, so it's all on your hand. Don't chop.
If anything.. reveg. Get some foliage going so the plant can produce.

Sounds like you're trying organics and not giving them enough nutes. EWC tea doesn't really have much NPK. I don't know what you're talking about a terp tea.

I made a tea with roots organic terp tea and then added a bunch of EWC to it. Roots organic makes a terp tea that I was recommended to use when I started seeing these deficiencies while only top dressing with organic flowering nutrients. I gave them a ton of the dry nutrients and saw very little improvement and then a couple weeks later gave them each 3/4 gallon of the terp tea I made.

Depending on what you used, it may take a while for it to break down.

The plants are starving. Organics take awhile to break down, and even longer if you don't have a healthy microbial life.

I have some recharge, should I add that to my water for my next watering?

Ya that should help a little. Top dressing with EWC would be good too. But those need more than just that probably. Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed is good too during times that that.

All I can say is those are starving. If you don't plan to reuse your soil you could use chemicals to get them nutes faster. I reuse mine, so I don't use chems.

Sometimes you have to throw in the towel on grows that fall short .... they are severely starved and have pretty much tapped out any reserves. Chlorophyll is pretty much gone and so is the benefit of photosynthesis in those leaves.

Whatever “ harvest “ you glean off of those plants , will be what it is. Whether done or not.
