This girl has some great color and growth. I'm very happy with the LST and her size. But, recently (3-4days). She seems sad, her leaves are super droopy almost looking like over watering. I let her dry out a day longer then normal then broke and watered her as she was dry 2 inches down. Same droop. I'm a bit baffled as it looks like the roots are oxygen deprived. @Waira my savior and all you other studs, whatcha think?

Are they droopy all day? Or just around lights on/off?
What are your temps and RH, and water source?
 
@Renaissance Redneck what up dude? Yep, she's sad 24/7, maybe some crushed up Zoloft in the next feed. Temps are a bit low, around 72f lights on and 65f lights off. Humidity is on point, 40%. My other lady never experienced this, the only diffrence being a fabric pot vs an old school plastic 2gal pot. It's bugging me. Appreciate the help.
 
Fabric pots have a lot of benefits. One drawback is the time it takes to water/feed.
If all else is equal, I'd bet you're watering too fast. With fabric, (and I use them, as well as standard pots), water will leech out of the sides and not permeate the entire root zone.
Try a slower approach, a little h2o, pause, then a little more. I would also recommend using a wetting agent. Soil can go hydrophobic, especially after dealing with dry spells.
Temps aren't ideal, but good enough:thumbsup:
Start simple. Pot change, look to your water.
 
Keep it simple stupid. I'm trying bro, but like all new fathers, I'm sure I'm loving them to hard. I'll try slowing my roll on the watering. I just hope it's not root rot. In any case I will be getting some air pot for my next round and hopefully that will extinguish and chance of O2 deprivation. :smokeout:
 
Unless you're keeping things like a swamp, it ain't root rot:thumbsup:
I'm having a very crazy month, Brother. I can't guarantee I'll be able to follow this.
Would you do me a favor and pm me with your progress?
Please?:pass:
 
... Bass--, Red has you covered! Seems unlikely to be overwatering, and a a dry-out can make for uneven soil moistening, hence the use of a wetting agent (I like Coco-Wet)... this will take the surface tension out of the water or nute solution, allowing it to cut through the hydrophobic tendency the dry patches have,... ironic, though that both over and underwatering cuase this, but for entirely different reasons of course!
