Overwater Solution

I likely overwatered a plant a while back that's into the third week of flower. It can't seem to recover. The soil is really dense even though I used a 30% perlite mix. Though it started as a runt, it's stunted and lime green, yellowing on the bottom. I'd really like to save it. Repot it? Use the hydrogen peroxide strategy? Thanks for your consideration.

Pictures would be nice.

Repotted. What a mess. The root ball was dense, but not, in my limited experience, overly so, but a lot of the perlite had migrated to the top. Maybe it's just a wimpy plant. I'll see if it made a difference in a couple days, I guess.

your plants not taking up water? soils still wet? pots still heavy?
Hey, sorry I didn't get back to reply. I lost the thread. The pot's still heavy; the fan and intermediate [?] leaves have mostly turned crispy, but the leaves just around the buds have come back greener. And they're still developing. I let it go a week or so at a time, then feel I have to give it some water. So it goes. Three weeks to harvest, and I may see 20g.

Oh, 1/3 perlite, 2/3 FFOF.
