I made a post recently about some low temperatures in two of my grow tents. I had temperatures overnight down into the low 60s and during the day only just breaking 70. This really stalled some growth for me. I used some small ceramic heaters to bring the temperatures uplast week but am now running tents with lights on 24 / 0 to keep the temperatures steady. One of my Ripley's OG plants still seems to be drooping though. Temperatures are now steady in the mid-to-high 70s and the plants are being fed Botanicare nutrients and are in 3 gallon smart pots with nectar of the Gods soil. I have a Viparspectra 450 in the center and an autocob on eaxh side in a 2x4 with a 4" fan..now all om 24/7. Does this look OK or is it done for? It's looked pretty muxh the same for the past week now.

I’m pretty upset about it

I entered her in the 2019 Mephisto Grower Of The Year competition and she went and did this

I just transplanted her from a 3gal smart pot to a 7gal smart pot

I think my plant got so big it got root bound?

Or I got root rot from it soaking up runoff from my hempys

I’m so bummed abt it

hey @rydin4life and @ClydeWalters how ya doing... first thing I would say is this look like possible root problem, and looks like it could be just over watering, also it looks like it could be a cold root zone but by the sound of things you have delt with that possible issue... do you guys ph your water?

I would let the plants dry out fully before your next feed, so the pot is easy to lift with one hand... what you may find that has happened is that the plant is recovering now (the new growth at the top looks to be OK rydin4life) and the leaves that have been realy damaged will not recover, which could be making you think that the plant is not recovering... I would remove the leaves that look the most curled over, if your worrying about upsetting the plant do it over a few days. Once you have removed the damaged leaves you will have a better chance of seeing if the plants are recovering.

If this persist you need to take this issue into the infirmary, it's not a Mephisto problem... what you may find is that the strain it self is a little touchy and need that extra special attention.
 
Thanks @Slater . I do pH my water..last was to 6.4 and am always between 6.3 and 6.7. Cold seems to have been fixed, and I'm gad to hear the new growth looks good. If my temp's areally now 75-78, what should my humidity be? I'm at 40-42% usually.
 
I struggled with droopy leaves on 3BOG, and continue to have a bit droopy leaves even now at near day 70. Not sure what caused it. At first I blamed it on some overfeeding, a mistake I made early on when MCv1.0 got mixed up with MCv2.0. After that got straightened out, I too thought that my lights off temps were too low. But my temp gauge records high and low temp, and they were ok. Underwatered was what I assumed next, and that helped some as I went to daily watering rather then every other day.

In all cases, the only plant affected (besides the overfeed issues) was 3BOG. So I just stopped chasing my tail and I accepted the fact this might be a 3BOG issue. Mine are doing great racing to the finish line, still a bit droopy. Won't win a beauty pageant, but I would bet they will be some fire. My $.02.

How we're you feeding your plant before it went bad? Frequency, amount, and we're you bottom feeding? You said Hempys.
 
@ClydeWalters for got to say your girl looks like the feed could be upped a little

Yea she had some Ntox so she’s getting food next Water. Just gave her a Hydrogaurd tonic

And yes I PH my water, 6.4 for Ripleys

I do not blame thyou genetics at all

I blame a root issue

I just don’t know exactly WHAT is wrong.

I know my leaves are pretty much gunna stay like this :/

Pretty sure she dropped a bit more after the 1500ml Of clean Hydrogaurd water @ 6.4ph

No, I said it was catching the RUNOFF from my hempys

They use to have small Res’s that would overflow, but I fixed that.

I was feeding her 1/4tsp of MC2.0 every other watering

mmmmm... ph is good.... it's looking like it could be a possible lock out with that yellowing... to be safe I would take this to the infirmary, this look like it's a job for @Waira , you find the best advice there
