Live Stoner Chat Droopy plants.

Hello all. I'm new to the site. Haden a question bout droopy plants . Not sure but I'll try posting its here and see what happens. I have grown outdoors for several years so I thought I'd have a go with a tent. I have 6 autoflowers in a 2x4 tent. 3 autoseeds girlscout cookies and 3 autoseeds gorilla glue. I know that's alot for a 2x4 but I figured with lots of training Id get a decent SOG. They are on day 39. I am running 2 meizhi 600w led at 18 inch above. Growing in 3 gal fabric pots. In coco and perlite. Ph 5.8 to 6. Tent temp is about 24 degrees. 60 to 64 %humidity. I am running Green Planet 4 part system and Green planet pro-cal. I am using the pro cal at suggested amount per liter and the nutrients I am running at about 3/4 the suggested amount. I ensure to keep in safe ppm range.with 10-20% run off. I have a 4 inch exhaust fan with carbon filter. A smal desk fan and currently a humidifier until they are all in flower. Ok so that's what I'm running. My gorilla glue are doing fantastic they are short because of LST but look healthy and vibrant. But the girls cout cookies always look droopy. There is a bit of nute burn from where I have gotten their feed on the lower leaves feeding them while LST. I have absolutely no idea why they are droopy. They are farther along than the GG as they are starting to flower. Anyone have any input? I'm new at the whole tent thing so take it easy on me haha. Here's a few pics. Any advice would be awsome. I've looked all over the internet. And looking at the temp and water specs I'm running. I cant figure out why there like that. Cheers

you say you water till 10-20% run off how often are you doing this? Her roots might not be as established as the others and your probably chocking her roots out. Could also be the opposite and your not feeding often enough, also plant tend to droop before lights of so if there perky mid way through lights on don’t worry about it. Also heat and stress can cause droopy plants but your temps sound good to me

Hey hey. Thanks for the reply. I water each pot with 1 litre of feed. About every 3 days. Soil is still fairly damp after 2 so I Have been doing 3 days to be safe. I figure because there fabric pots they shouldn't be holding enough water to choke the roots out. . I'm doin the doin 8 on 6 off deal. Lights have been back on for bout 2 hours now and there still droopy.

My money would be on over watering, regardless of fabric pots, water that isn’t used or evaporated accumulates your better of with over dry soil than over wet soil.. cut back on her watering let her dry out abit then water her she should bounce back, or water her less.. (about 300-400ml) a fair test is to put your finger a inch into the soil if its “cold/damp” not necessarily wet your ok don’t water her, if it’s dusty dry then she needs water

Sounds good. I will try that. Might look into a soil humidity meter. Thanks for the input!!
