Are you watering often? Hows the drainage?

iv started watering less often every other day or so, the pot has its 4 original holes but iv yet to see any water come out of the bottom,

Sounds like it could be compacted. Should always wet your mix before planting in. You could try setting it on a plate or something and add water to let it soak it up through the drain holes. Let it drink it up until it stops and then prop it up so it drains all the drops of water out.

It's in just soil? any perlite in it? or is it right out of the ground.

Its just in a pot of promix soil (organic garden and herb mix), grabbed it at the local garden center. the plant was donated to me it was growing in a small pot on a windowsill, so i tarnsfered it to this pot and put it in my tent. i d have a drainage plate under the pot.

P.s this is my first grow. and appreciate the reply

fill the drainage plate until it stops, then remove the tray and let drain out.

Next watering go back to top watering and water until it comes out the bottom. Always remove drainage plate and let drain out. Don't let it sit in standing water too long.

Yes its almost the exact same pot. Maybe a bit smaller

Mine takes like 4-5 liters and gets good run off. Make sure it's dry before watering again.
