2) Outdoor grow
3) Water as needed, its been hot the last few weeks so it was once every other day or if i watered one morning id have to water the next evening
4) 30 gallon smart pots with happy frog
5) These are about 5 weeks outside

The strain is Pandoras box and its doing some really weird stuff. Basically looks like its wilting from lack of water but its fine. I generally let the pots dry out a bit before i water, but never to the point of starving the plant. Im currently feeding some Cutting Edge Solutions that im using up the last of and going back to foxfarm nutes until finish.

All the other strains outside arent showing this problem, just the pandoras, I also have some bubba, trainwreck and a home blend I call rhino berry (gdp x black widow x white rhino).

Its weirding me out because one of my friends had one of his indoor plants do something of the sort near the end of flowering and it ended up crapping out and dying.

Looking for some insight, thought it might be a N deficiency or a calcium/magnesium deficiency.

Any help is appreciated.

that little chop mark i think was from those green ladybug things, about to spray for em.

yeah I was thinking nitrogen but just wanted to check up, its just that all the other plants look fine, maybe these just need more. And its not thirsty at all, guarantee that, they were just watered about 4 hours before that picture

Thanks for the help, anyone else can feel free to chime in

Looks like a nitrogen deficiency to me. Try adding some nutes high in nitro and see if she turns around. :) Nitrogen is the most important nutrient for leaves, stems and roots

also you may be over watering which will also cause the leaves to droop like that. let the top 2-4" of soil get dry before you water. try watering every two days instead of every other day and note the changes. many people forget that marijuana is still a weed (and a tropical one at that) so it is able to survive well without tons of water. the soil underneath 3-4" should always feel slightly damp, but not soaked and the top should be allowed to dry out before the next watering.

Overwatering will not cause the plant to droop this way. The leaves may curl under a bit but these in fact are drooping hard. Op, you cannot guarantee its not thirsty. It is thirsty. If in fact you just watered then go back in the morning and it will be pretty again.

FYI Those green lady bugs are cucumber beetles... they do not help your plants! I know because i have an infestation of them along with buffalo leaf hoppers.
