Chronic droop issues

Have they ever looked perky?

 

How are you checking the moisture level of the pots?

 

I suggest potting one up
when plants droop as this, its a sign of No Air in the soils,
this can be an indication of over watering or root rot at worst

potting up one plant will offer you a check on the root state,
any rotten sox smells or brown roots may suggest forthcoming root rot

ensure you add 30% perlite to the plant at potup this will ensure you got enough air in the soils

good luck

 

too much nitrogen imo

 

Is this your first grow?
Are you using bagged potting soil ? If so have you mixed in anything with it.

 

Overwatering causes oxygen deprivation due to root death. Once a plant is damaged from overwatering they have a hard time recovering because they have to grow new roots. Sometimes watering an overwatered plant will perk it up temporarily because it's getting oxygen from the fresh water and that'll mislead you into thinking maybe it isn't being watered enough. They look worse when the soil begins to dry which is very confusing. It may be time to start some fresh seeds.

I like Vee's idea and trojangrower may be onto something. IMO there's something about the way they look that doesn't quite fit the typical overwatered look but if they began drooping before you began adding nutes then I suppose too much N probably isn't the problem. This is exactly why I don't like bagged soil that comes fertilized.

They look rather small for plants that must be at least 5 weeks old if I'm reading correctly. Also in the future it may be a good idea to post pics of your plants under normal light.

 

is it the first time using that light?

 

Bagged potting soil is like a sponge you want 40% perlite sand top soil pea gravel/60% potting soil.
Your getting root rot because you dont have proper drainage.
Mix up potting soil to what i said above and transplant.
Potting soil is soiless.. read the bag

 

If you could continually up pot plants, when mediums depleted youd never have to feed using ocean forest. As mentioned gotta add perlite as with every other mix being sold. I dont know of a bag of any medium sold with 30% perlite already mixed in.

Wk 4 and 2 days in top 30% happy frog lower 70% ocean forest.

 

Here's a list of the threads I've replied to regard's the Fox Farm

Vee,





Never do i disagree with you. But
FFOF= nutrients does FFOF have all the necessary minerals in it that mj plants requires? (no)
Does perlite .. no.
50% of dirt/earth is silica, plus the plant needs a wide variety of minerals that is found in common top soil.
What on earth is wrong with adding 10 to 20 % top soil.[/QUOTE]
