Yesterday my plant was fine but i look at it this morning and just over night it's changed alot! All of the fan leaves are drooping - the plant still looks healthy but the leaves are really droopy, ie I'd pick them up and 'line them up' the way they'd usually sit and they just flop down like a wet willy... I really need some asnwers ive never had this problem before someone please give your experience and thoughts so i can carry on with my grow without worrying! thanks s12!!
here are some pics. I read that it's an over watering problem, but i touch my finger down an inch and it's hardly moist and is getting quite dry. I havnt watered for atleast a week, probably more like a week and a half, we've had a little bit of rain in between then but over the past days its been quite sunny and a little bit windy (helps dry out the soil) so it doesnt make much sense to me coz it seems fairly dry! faaaaahck
OK, i asked my mum about it and she said its also possible its from under-watering....so we took a closer look at the plants and noticed the other 2 are quite damp approx half an inch under the top of the soil but the other one (the one with the droopy leaves!!) is dry about 2 inches under the soil! So this clearly couldn't be over watering because the other ones (with the damper soil...) arent drooping. So i watered the droopy one. lmao theres basically no point in this thread now But i would still like some opinions if possible. Still hoping my mum was right though lol. We'll see 2mrw or the next day i guess.
yo, you are right it was thirsty. I checked it about an hour after i watered it and it had perked up fine again!! He he
From the looks of some of the interior leaves, there may be a magnesium def. Try a epsom salts solution @ 1 teaspoon per gallon dilluted very well before application. http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute-beginners/98459-epsom-salts.html#post1041261
the epson salt solution works very well for me, but i put it in a spray bottle opposed to the resiviour, i also add a drop of dish soap into the bottle so it sticks to the leaves better instead of just beading off.
