Brand new to growing.

Hi there. I've got a SnowCap that I've been trying to grow. I got her at my local dispensory Tuesday this week. She was already kind of big when I got her. Definetelly not a seedling. I left her in the cup she came in for a couple days, then transplanted her into a much larger pot. I noticed yesterday that she was a little droopy and tested the soil for moisture. Dry as a bone. So, I watered with purified water. She perked up for a while until sometime this afternoon. Drooping again. Not really sure what to do about this. The soil is still fairly moist. She's close to the light, but not so close that it would burn her. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. A little info about the set-up. I've got her in some Miricale Gro soil, clay pot with a hole in the bottom. Hanging light above. I've got her on an 18/6 schedule right now. I'll try to get a pic up so some of the experienced growers can tell me what's going on if they can. Thanks in advance!:leaf:

Miracle grow is great outdoors. There is no container to trap excess salts. Every outdoor grow I have done with miracle grow has been awesome. Every indoor grow is great through veg but hit week 2-3 of flower, the claw hits no matter what you do and it is a toxic mess the rest of the grow, cant flush the time release nutes out and can't add a bloom nute to it unless you want to fry it more. Don't get me wrong, the bud was ok, just not as big a harvest as I would have liked and def not the best tasting shit. Outdoor though, where the soil around the root-ball leaches out excess nutes, it works great, monster colas, super sticky and tastes great. Back to the question though....youngins sag, they get perky, they sag. As long as your watering correctly you will be fine. I find that after a long day on 18/6 my small veg plants droop about an hour before the lights go off, light comes on 6 hours later...perky. If it doesn't fix itself at all...then you have a problem. Pictures do help immensely though.

She perked back up since yesterday and the removal of the second plant. The second plant is doing pretty well considering I have no idea what kind of plant it is.

So, I have a suspicion that the foam shit that my plant was growing in when I got her is the culprit. I checked my plant this morning and the soil was moist, but the foam shit was dry as a bone. She has no roots coming out of the foam thing, but plenty of roots in the stupid foam. I got to wondering if I can take my plant out of the foam shit without damaging the roots.
