Thats weird, does not look like they were stressed a lot to stun like this. I give my girls 4-5 weeks on veg and they look maybe 3-4 times bigger than yours and always praying to handle the strech. Anyway you can lst them all the way thru flowering, problem is that after stretch the branches become woody and there is a big risk of breaking them. So after stretch is done I would reccomend using only supercrop the tops which are too high.

Doesn't look like a nutrient issue to me and if they're not dry then they're not thirsty. To me it looks like they're lacking in light or the correct light. I grow indoors under a 400w Hps and water my ladies in the bathroom. If I leave them in there to drain off for too long under just the bathroom light they start to droop and look sad like yours do. As soon as they're back under the Hps they come back to life.

These are under a 240W qb Chinese knockoff. It’s 3500k so should have a decent mixture of spectrum. The pots did feel a light and dry so I gave them a water. They dark in an hr so I’ll check on them right before they go to sleep and right when they wake up. Hopefully they were just thirsty.

You have not watered them...

That’s what I figured. They last got watered on Friday. Seems like they’re getting more thirsty. Gave them both a good drink this morning. Thanks man!

Do not stress them with systematic underwatering otherwise they will herm... you should let the pot dry out properly but not so much to see stressed plant by this.

Makes so much sense thank you so much. Hope I didn’t mess them up too bad.

In this stage it is not a big problem, first 3 weeks after flip they are resilient as well as in veg and they can handle almost everthing but once you will enter the rippening phase this one small mistake can cost you whole crop in the worst scenario. In this time your best friend will be stretch, make him as long as possible because it means yield. I doubt that you will be able to take big advantage of LST but maybe I am wrong now! It is your call but I would let them stretch as it can and than slightly supercrop the main colas and bend to some height as other shots. Than lift the pots to the height for getting the canopy to the same height. Hope you understand what I wanted to explain...?

Oh yea I understand. This being my first time all way through I’m gonna let the one grow naturally. The other one I just topped once and am gonna let it go. I’ll manage them if they start getting too close to light. Right now it’s about 15-16in and I have some room to lift up. My next grow I want to top and LST both plants in Veg and let them bush out a bunch before flipping.

They just woke up and seemed to have bounced back nicely.

Stop me if I get too paranoid or worried here....but woke up this morning to find them sorta droopy. I watered yesterday and soil still feels moist under the surface. Any ideas what it could be? Again sorry if I’m being an over paranoid newbie here but just don’t wanna kill them. Also, seen some yellowing on the bottom leaves. I haven’t fed nutes in a few weeks due to N Tox(like I said above). These were taken right at the end of their light cycle. Thanks!

So I’ve really trying to work on the watering thing. I have a shower attachment on my house. I soak around the entire soil until it starts to run out the bottom then I wait a few before I put it back in the tent. It’s not a slow water by any means, soil gets soaked pretty quickly. What do you recommend to remedy? Just leave and pray? Lol

Today. Saw some more yellowing down on the bottom leaves. Super light green new growth in the topped plant.

Should I trim those lower leaves that have the yellowing and damage on them? And at what point should I start giving flower nutes?

That lime is because of transition to flower, nothing to worry about. Also that fan leaves just old and being sucked. Check your water source on the web if they using chlorine or chloramine. When chlorine you need to let the water chill at least 24hrs when chloramine than you need Reverse osmosis system to the future. Do you pHed your water before watering??? What is your EC of plain water?

Cool. I figured if I trimmed them off, then resources would be diverted to the rest of the plant. I’ll trim them off tonight. I am not sure what EC is lol. My water is above 8. I’ll check the web for the chlorine/chloramine. I have the option to use just straight rain water would that be better?
