  3. Re-plant it into a pot with more soil!!! Make sure to bury the stem so it’s not so tall, the plant stretched up like that due to lack of light. I would re plant and keep in veg for at least a few more weeks unless you’re going for micro micro grow

  6. Okay, what I said about re potting and burying further I for sure stick with. But, the veg time that will remain up to you. You will have a bigger yield each day you wait. But if time is of the essence then please post pics near the end if possible I’m curious how they turn out

  8. Drainage might be a problem with those pots/soil mixture causing the plants to droop. I would let them dry out and possibly drill some more holes in the bottom of the cups. It is possible to yield decent amounts with solo cup grows, just google solo cup grows and you will be amazed. Just have to tinker around to get the right conditions and watering is of a greater concern because mature plants will dry up quickly with such a small medium. You got this man. Just focus on those roots being able to move about the soil, which is a little difficult when it is wet and compact. Find a toothpick and gently aerate the soil to help out.
     
  9. Depends on the saturation of water in the soil surrounding the stem. If it stays like that for too long, stem can't breathe and rot will begin; that could be the end of the plant. When I plant, I try and only bury 1-2" and leave a moat around the stem until it starts showing growth. Then when it transitions, I will put the dirt back around the stem. I've had a lot of experience trying to use dirt as a stabilizer and had poor results. Best bet is to continue using sticks to hold the plant up until we can fix this drooping issue.
     
  10. Sorry for drooping just watered it I water every few days when cup dry an light ok not my first grow just new to growing in doors
