What have I done wrong? I tried the troubleshooting chart, but obviously don’t know what I’m doing. I have these on 18 hours light. I was using softened water, but now using raw. Can I save this? Or should I start over? What does it need?

It’s very hard to tell without any more info. But my plants started clawing when the humidity was super low. Or when I overwater them.
But you also have some spots on the leaves. I’m not super experienced but my go to when I get spots or any leaf discoloration at all. I flush the pot with ph’d water. And then feed half strength a couple days later. Kind of like a reset.

And just FYI…… the list is here to help us help you. But… it is very intimidating to a new grower who doesn’t even know what half the shit is on the list! I posted for help and was immediately responded to with the list of questions about my grow, some of which I had no idea what they were! Lol maybe we need a introduction list with just the basics on it. 
I definitely would not cull the plant. She doesn’t look to far gone. You should be able to bring her back.

Sodium softened water is not good, it leads to salt accumulating in soil over time and becoming toxic . . . did you flush them really good when you changed to unsoftened water?

Thanks so much!
I did not flush. I can do that now. I added gypsum to help with sodium and calcium.

What is the soil brand?
Are you growing in tent? If in tent will need exhaust fan and fans to circulate air.
What’s growing in the fab pot?
I would shoot up a bunch of pics. Full shots of plant and container. Top and side view. A pic of environment. Pictures can reveal a lot. Some things not showing with decent numbers/nutrients etc. That with some basic info…soil/nutrient line/temp/humidity watering practice. Light model.

Welcome @jAVOGS
Sorry you are having issues but we will all try to help.
Overwatering is one of the biggest issues we all deal with. That is what I suspect.
Cannabis likes to go from very wet to very dry. What I call “drench/drought”.
Let your plant dry until it just begins to droop then water very slowly until the soil is completely saturated and water starts to drip out the very bottom. You want about 20% runoff( If 1 gal. goes in, about 1 qt should run out). Drain that water off for testing PPM and Ph for diagnosis. Let it dry between each watering.

There is a good possibility that could be the case. I will let it dry out.
Soil is organic Miracle Grow. I have a humidifier and fan in the room/no tent. Fabric pot.
MG soil is not a cannibis friendly soil. Some have had good luck with it. If you could test your runoff ph and ppm it would give you a better idea of where to go from here. What light r u using? Brand?

How long ago were you giving her soft water. And what do you mean by raw? Tapwater, bottled water, R/O, etc
