Hey bro, I think with the 150w hps, t5, and your glow panel 45, you have plenty of light for her. But that gp45 wouldnt do much by itself during flowering, keep the 150w and t5 going as well. Droopy leaves usually means over watering. Let your medium dry up some inbetween waterings. Goodluck!

i'm hoping to kill that droop.
possible reasons for the droop, in order of how likely i think they are:
overwatering/overmisting.
switching from LED to the HPS.
fan too strong.
opening the door too often, letting smoke in.

so i attempted to take away my ability to fuck those things up.

some of the lowest leaves are canoeing under, and getting crinkly. buhhh.

changing the white balance on my camera is fun. this is pretty close to real life coloring

nice comback man it wasent the light 150w hps is perfect for that one plant the led is a plus so dont think its the light i have 1 150 watthps wit my plnt and it did awesome it had to do with the under overwatering i c u have that self-feed thing i never saw it used for mj but it might not be giving all ytour roots the water it needed i would do it manually if its your first time using it!!

nice! i think the problem happened because i transitioned so suddenly, while i was overwatering and all that other crap. if it had been more gradual it would've been okay.

as for the aquaglobe, i put that in after my overwatering fiasco. it's slightly too small for a pot this size, so i'm still hand watering somewhat, but i'm way less likely to fuck it up now.

the one clone i was trying out utterly failed to root. i read up on it and took the 3 lowest cuttings to try. we'll see how that goes

she died! ah well. the aquaglobe was overwatering, i took it out right away but the didn't recover this time. i gave her over a week but the droop never even started to go away.
c'est la vie. start over

better soil, more consistent lighting, and a better job at watering.





also, 2 out of the 3 clones i cut are totally alive and growing taller. i got em outside 'cause i'm not gonna include them in my next setup, hopefully i'll get a few grams off em. if they're even female; i still don't know.
