Yesterday noticed a bit of a droop on parts of one of my plants. I knew it was about watering time so I went ahead and watered. She is an auto about 5 weeks in. I gave her cal mag, silica, and bloom from botanicare at half strength. Watered 2 gallons as usual until decent run off. I always ph to 6.5 but yesterday I did realize I forgot to ph. I wasn’t worried though because since I’ve been using bloom it seems to ph my water right at 6.5. She came back after watering but woke up this morning and parts of her are drooping again. Ppm of water was right around 900-1000. Did not check run off water. Anyone have any idea what’s going on? Regular soil I’m using. What should I do to fix? Also she’s looking a little more light green and has some yellow tips on some leaves.

Even tho she is praying, looks a little bit like over watering. I flower in 5 gallons pots and never water more than a half gallon of water. 2 gallons seems like a lot. Id wait a few days and let her dry out some

Is your cloth pot sitting in the run off? You don't want it to reabsorb any of that water. When you use bottled or powdered ferts, you have to wash out the old salts, or they will build up and damage your root system.

No it doesn’t sit in it. I have two plants side by side by and only have one coaster. So after I water i set her to the side after run off.

You forgot to ph and it got messed up? Don’t forget to ph again

only on this feeding I forgot to ph but she was drooling before I fed her. Just slightly and after feeding she bounced back. I wasn’t too worried this time because since I’ve been feeding with bloom it puts my ph right where it needed. She bounced back and then this morning some of the leaves are praying and some still drooping bad. I don’t water until pot feels light when I lift it. I’ve always watered around 2 gallons in my 5 gallons pots since flower. Less before but around 2 since flower. That’s when I get a little runoff.

Temperature range and humidity please. Also is there a fan blowing on this? Dark green and leaf shape says enough nitrogen.

There is a fan blowing slightly on it. Temp stays between 75-82 and humidity is between 40-50. Humidity dropped down to 34 when I noticed the droop and she was light so I fed her. She bounced back but not fully. Some leaves still look sad. I upped the humidity and it seemed to help some but not totally. I dunno what it is. Her pot is heavy right now so I don’t want to flush or do anything else at the moment.

Get the fan off the plant directly. Lay off the nitrogen.

Its your "regular soil" .Not enough air. May have compost in it with not enough aeration.Your roots cant breathe.

Let it dry out good, then water a little lighter. Before you use that type or brand of soil again, add some perlite to it, or rice hulls, something to help loosen it up.

When I said regular soil I meant just soil grow. So it wasn’t confused with dwc or coco. I added perlite and little worm casting to some organic stuff I could find at local store. Best I could come up with.

So ya your just watering way too much,EWC just goes to mud when its soaked.Organic you try to keep it moist not wet.So water less and more often.
