Maybe overwater or too dry soil? Its a bit late to transplant if they are actually root bound

If they are root bound u have to transplant...maybe it will shock them but u have to do it

Those roots need more space to grow. Should be ok if you get them out of those tight jeans lol

Roots on the holes of the pots doesn't mean anything.

What size pots?

Not rootbound, things like a foot tall

Awesome dude. You can always cut around the bottom of the pot and insert it in a bigger fabric one. Tight job but its the right way if you re sure its rootbound. Eliminates the stress. Myccos too in my exp

When were they last watered?

If you stick your index finger into the soil a few inches do you feel any moisture?

Im gonna guess not rootbound, and just thirsty. If I zoom in and look at the new growth it looks wilted rather than the droop from overwatering. Could be wrong but I will take the bet.

What are the temps like where you live at the moment? Whats your environment? AC? Exhaust fans?

Not rootbound, wtf? I 3 ft tall plants in 5liter pots. Those plants are tiny for the pot. They look over watered.

That definitely is not rootbound. Yeah, it could go up a pot in the next week or two, if you were in veg — but that’s not causing your wilting. At all. I wait till mine are more filled than that to move them up. And I let them fill the pot before I even flower.

 

[Cinco]

This is close to bound up. You are nowhere close to filling your pot with roots. I wouldn’t have repotted that during flower... you are about to see it stall out, I reckon.

If anything, I would have let that pot fill up with roots even more before I ever flowered...
