At first I thought it was drooping because it was over watered, so I removed the blumats and let it dry out for four days.

Came back yesterday, it was wilted so I reapplied the blumats and watered it.

It perked up but now, about 18h later, its drooping again.

What could be wrong? Only other things i can think of is it had some drastic changes to lighting recently - it went from a 21/3 hps tent to a veg tent where it was under 250w of flouros and some leds and now back to the hs tent but with 24/0/3 lighting (the hps and leds turn off for 3 hours in this tent, but a 105w blue cfl stays on all the time, i call it moon lighting).

Could the changes in light cycles be responsible? Ive never seen cycle changes affect a plant for 1.5 weeks! Then again ive never tried growing any wembleys...

Can you provide a natural light photo? Also, what's the humidity / heat like and how much did you water last time?


Love!

Check out my current grow.

I can't right now but other than the drooping the foliage looks perfectly healthy. Rh is 40-50, temps 20-25c.

Normal conditions for this tent/ time of yeah...
 
I had a simmilar problem with my amnesia haze auto... and i think its overwatering, maybe the roots are too exposed to water so they react that way...
the foilage is great so i think its that....is this some sativa strain?! they usually react this way. this problem lasted for 2 weeks and all got back to normal

Im not sure of the provenance of the seed (its a freebie from a local bulk supplier) but a description i find by googling says 60% Indica, 20% Sativa and 20% Ruderalis.

Does look like overwatering then underwatering cause i pulled the blumats. Those things are hit and miss with autos - sometimes the root mass doesnt grow around them and a lot of the water just floods through faster than the roots want to drink. I usually put some vermiculite in the holes to stop this happening but didnt have any to hand. So i moved it to this tent with a big amnesia and put it on a pedestal to keep the water tank below the pot.

I only see the plant twice a week, i guess in about four days i should see some improvement if this is as you say...
 
...probably some root damage behind this, and needs time to recover,.. ironically, too wet and too dry cause the same drooping, but for different reasons of course,... Light's aren't behind this, in any case,... that CFL, is it a horticultural grade type?

Never seen any horticultural cfls... fluoros yes but not compact fluoros.

Its just a run of the mill u-shaped 6400k cfl:

This whole moonlighting thing is just a little experiment im doing. Also helps keep the temperatures a bit higher during lights off, its getting pretty cold in my banya. Crappy september this year :(
