Looks like transplant shock, The yellowing of the leaf is the plant using stored nutrients. Drooping excessively is under watering. They droop a little when over watered. You say you moved it and watered it. If you watered it real good then just wait a few days it should respond. Be sure the ph is correct. All I can think of.
Good luck.

Hi

Did you ph the water before you watered her and ff oc. is pretty hot lots of org. nuts, when you ph your water all ways
wait at least 1 hour for the water to stabilize before watering

all right i watered it today and tested the runoff and it was about 6.8-7.0, im hoping it will pick up in a couple days from this. Do you guys think i should have added some big bloom to it at like 1/4.(alls i have is BB and TB)

Some else mentioned it, transplant shock, because you put it in too large of a container. They shouldn't be in their final container until they're a little bigger than that.

how much of shock can there be from picking up a cube with the plant in it and putting it in a hole in the ground?

k the plant is looking much better this morning, except a couple leaves are still on a slight droop. But every leaf has the tips of it burnt is this from the stress it just underwent or what?

Yep, I figured it would bounce back. Sometimes it takes a little longer. Could be she didnt have enough air with all the water to the roots. Burnt tips are usually over nutes, I would say go ahead and throw the 150 in there but keep her on water untill she starts turning light green all over. then she is hungry for nutes. Even with well water you should keep your ph a bit lower. Like between 6.0 and 6.5 If you give her a couple days without water the droop should go away.

well the droop is all gone now except for 1 leaf has a little droop but nothing major. Is big bloom ok to feed her since its micronutrients mostly, and how do u suggest i lower the ph?

 

[shmow52]

also would the tips of burnt just because of the ffof because i havnt added any nutes yet?

 

[shmow52]

when do u guys think i should put my fan and hps in?
