People ask for "help" you give them advice and they throw it away. Might as well not ask. Stems up and leaves down means they are thirsty.
I can' figure out why they ask for help, then say "That's not it" when you help them.. Others follow instructions and advice quite well.. Idk!

You tell me how plants that are in wet soil are thirsty? I fed them 12 hours ago. The soil is still damp.

Not to mention, half the "help me" posts on this site have conflicting answers from differrnt members. One person will say one thing then another says the opposite. And im supposed to jyat ignore my instinct and "do what you say"?

Ego much?

Isn’t it almost the definition of too much ego to ask for advice, get the same advice from multiple people, and then rant that it’s not correct and they are wrong?
I mean at this point you could tryyyyy their advice and see if it helps, but your plant, your solution

So if the soil is wet, how are my plants thirsty? Care to answer that?

Ok then, you tell us..... What's the problem? They're your plants!
Are you offended? I asked for help because im unsure what the issue is. Im simply telling you, the soil is wet. So tell me again my plants are thirsty when there is already water available to them?

Maybe they aren't wet enough. Let's get more details, what size pots and how many gallons of water do you feed?

Not offended in the least.. I have a tough skin..
If they have plenty of water then the roots are not taking it in..
How did the transplant go? Any root damage? How much water did you use?

The transplant seemed to go well. The plants looked happy and leaves were pointing upwards. There was no root damage and the roots were perfectly white and were not root bound.

I gave half a galon of 1/2 strength feed per 5 gallon pot until i had 10 - 15% run off

Well a 5 gallon pot should take about gallon of water, if not more. So with you having run off with using a half a gallon tells me your water is just running through your dirt because it's dry. Not moist.

I would add another 1/2 gallon just to see.. It could be transplant shock.. But a little extra water won't hurt..
It's the only thing I can think of.. I use half gallon in 2 gal pots..
