Leaves are drooping, why?

Hi guys, I have two autos, different genetics and they are 18 days old.

One's leaves are drooping and can't figure out why, maybe its light stress, maybe over or underwatering, but I'm giving her water when 1-2 cm of soil is dry and lights are 60cm distant from the plant. When I touch leaves I have feeling that they are dryer than the second plant, but that's maybe leaves are bigger, I don't really know it's my first grow.

Please see 3 pictures:
The second one is smaller because I had her in DWC and it had problems. After I transplanted to the soil she started growing really faster. But she looks much better and light distance is same as first one.

maybe the problem for the first one is a small pot? How can I troubleshoot this?

Lights QB 240w. Humid 40%~ and temps 19-22C (yesterday humid was 30%)
Thank you

Looks like they could use the transplant to their new home.

My girls looked droopy and lethargic in their little starter pots ...

... but they have come back to life in less than 2 weeks in their 5 gallon buckets.

Your humidity is still too low, read about VPD.

What soil are you in?

5g pot is HUGE for indoor unless you're growing trees. Probably dont need to give nutes at all or midway into flower

A 5 gallon pot is the average size for an indoor grow. There are plenty of dense roots down at the bottom when I empty the buckets after harvest so I am pretty hesitant to go smaller than that.

I do grow trees - more like big bushes - via SCROG. 2 plants each occupy a 2' x 2' area with about a 16" - 18" flower stretch. They are wide more than they are tall. And I have already started with 1/2 strength veg nutes and will feed 2/3 recommended dosage right into late flower.

But - 5 gallon orange and white plastic Home Depot buckets rule!
