Those plants are getting weak, I think so this is happening because of guys not watering it.
Hey Rocko, your plants do look better during the day time, but i still feel like the leaves are drooping. I read through your Watering methods and schedule and still feel like it may be an over watering problem as everything else seems ok. Someone here may correct me, but the leaves on your plants look heavy/droopy which can be a sign of over watering. I am currently using 11l pots and grow in soil and I water about 2 times a week. I wait till my pot feels almost as light as it would do as if I'd just put fresh soil in and then i water my plants. Sorry I keep banging on about your watering practises, just want to help. Cheersi just fed that one, I’ll send you a picture when they’re all raised back up. It’s really odd, but I swear during the day (while at work) every single leaf is either straight out or praying up. An hour or two before lights out and after light on the leaves do look slightly droopy, I agree. What can I do to fix that? It’s healthy but a lot of videos I see it seems most plants are ALWAYS praying. More advanced growers, but still I would like to achieve that. Thanks!!
i will be home in a few hours and will take an update pic. But no worries this is why I posted! I Want honest feedback and I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out. I’ll back off on the watering, and wait until the pots noticeably light. There’s no deficiency as far as I can tell, so it had to be the ovewatering as you pointed out.Hey Rocko, your plants do look better during the day time, but i still feel like the leaves are drooping.

Always happy to help and I too only grow on a small scale, just personal for my girlfriend and I. You'll learn loads from the people here and researching, plus you'll gain loads of experience with each grow. That's a good idea with the solo cup and next time you repot to your larger final pots just fill one up and feel the weight before you water and that will give you an idea of how light a pot should almost feel before waterings. 50-60% RH is better for veg, for flower ideally you're looking for 40-50%. The higher the humidity during flowering the more open you are to risk of mould.i will be home in a few hours and will take an update pic. But no worries this is why I posted!

Is my RH about right, between 50-60%? Even for flower stage. Also, I have a solo cup grow that’s in week 2 and looks really healthy like my other two autos. Hoping to take all this knowledge into my other grows going on. Event though it’s on a smaller scale, I should be able to somewhat gauge what he watering amounts with the solo cup. Really just as an experiment.
so I only have the one tent and growing autos so if I lower to 40-50 RH will that hurt my ones in veg?Always happy to help and I too only grow on a small scale, just personal for my girlfriend and I.

Here’s a pic of my setup, I have a fan right above that big sour kush. Would that be keeling the leaves from completely praying upward? I have a few of the old fan leaves left that are huge and hang down. I did a good amount of leaf tucking throughout the whole grow. It could be the old fan leaves hanging down throwing off what the rest look like. The sugar leaves are point straight out. Not watering for a few days.Always happy to help and I too only grow on a small scale, just personal for my girlfriend and I.

Add nutes and then adjust ph. you will use less of the ph'ing liquid.i just fed that one, I’ll send you a picture when they’re all raised back up.

This is correct, I've burn my plant numerous times... somehow I think she likes it. She may be into S&M lolI personally don't think you should be feeding every watering in soil. i have the feeling that some nute burn might be coming. Last pics were much better there was definitely something going on with over/under watering. Keep up with the learning process
I picked up from a few different growers to ph water first, but now that yousay that my ppms can be high between 1500-1800. So if I just add my Nutes and then ph it do you think my ppms will be less?

alright I will try every other with juts ph water and see what happens. I had a little burn early on and ever since I’ve backed off a bit.I personally don't think you should be feeding every watering in soil. i have the feeling that some nute burn might be coming.

Ususally I use purified or tap water.. I always add nutrients first and the PH usually gets within .3 of my goal 6.8. Then I just add a little distilled water to bring ph back up if needed. I don't PH down unless it goes over 7.0 (Growing in soil)alright I will try every other with juts ph water and see what happens. I had a little burn early on and ever since I’ve backed off a bit.
ph and ppms are two different things they can't go down unless you add more water 1500-1800 is very high depending on the scale you are in. I would suggest to use EC insteadI picked up from a few different growers to ph water first, but now that yousay that my ppms can be high between 1500-1800.

Yeah I know they’re different, I’m saying o use both just see what the ppms happens to be. I’ll look into ECph and ppms are two different things they can't go down unless you add more water 1500-1800 is very high depending on the scale you are in. I would suggest to use EC instead

crazy haha...i didn’t ph my water and added the Nutes and it was 6.35 which is in the ballpark of what I aim for. Ppms were about 1000....so I’ll continue this way, thanks!Ususally I use purified or tap water.. I always add nutrients first and the PH usually gets within .3 of my goal 6.8.

I think I was wrong....must have been UNDERwatered. Yesterday I ended up doing a light feed and ran almost 1 gallon through the sour kush(most mature) and she shot up like over never seen before. The whole tent looks filled up now and I can see the weight packed on just over night.I personally don't think you should be feeding every watering in soil. i have the feeling that some nute burn might be coming.
