Supercrop went BAD

Shiny leaves are normally the last sign of nitrogen toxicity making it hard for the plant to photosynthesize and actually not absorbing all the light spectrum necessary. I actually know the guy that wrote that article

thought first they turn dark green then cup then shiny then burns then necrotic leaves. I don't think any of the foliage is dark enough to be nitro. but I could be wrong but I don't think I am lol

So nitrogen will be the first nutrient to burn a plant and normally will be one of the first signs if the leaves aren't clawing already. The biggest problem with nitrogen is there is only the smallest window for PH to cause a lockout, so even if your PH is up around 9 your plant will still just keep taking it up. As PH falls below 6 it gets taken up slower but it still gets taken up all the way down top around a PH of 5, do you can still get major nitrogen toxicity even with PH way off.

I honestly think this is an overwatering. The OP said he has watered "every 4 days".

When overwatered, the leaves droop, but it's an elongated droop(slow, progressive, from stem to end of leaf). When it's underwatered, it basically flops right from the main stem.

If it continuously is overwatered, you'll start to see all sorts of nutrient problems. These problems can only be fixed by letting it dry out first, then watching the plant for a few days... and adjusting from there.

Since you have her in a fabric pot, if you got a fan that can point straight up and act like a table... put the pot right on top of the fan and turn it on high for a full 24 hours...

I did that the last time I overwatered, and my plant bounced back the next day.

chop half of it off let it recover a few weeks then flip. orrrrr throw it out start again, orrrrrr flower asap and take what you get. me I would cut half off or pitch it out

If you have a separate veg space then start some new plants. Flower this one and move forward. Keep the next plant smaller and more bushier. Its all a learning curve.

I dont think its an N issue i think its an over watering one as well. Which is a fairly common problem.

Buy a water meter.

I think you should just start over, could you get he plant to recover maybe, but in a triage type assessment sheza a gonner.

for the record that is the kind of purple stem that is bad; not from cold or slight cal-mag def or strain types of color purple.
