What causes droopy plants in hydro?

I am curious because I have never done it, but I imagine that once you do it once you can remember the color. Shouldn't be too difficult.
Do tell how you know what the color is supposed to be using something like gh flora series and ph drops if its not too difficult. Even if you were able to do it once it would change over the course of a grow unless you run the same nutes at the same ppm the entire grow wouldn't it? The guy who bumped the thread gave good advice about guessing ph with drops and no meter in hydroponics. It'd take a fool or a newb to try and guess what color pink and green would make for ph to be in the correct range.

obviously it would change with the different pigments. The chart wouldn’t be accurate. It would take some skill and experience. It would be like talking colors with rose shaded glasses on. Just because you don’t believe you are capable of doing it why would you doubt a person who says they can? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve never done it, but logically I can’t think of a reason it couldn’t be done.

Did you read the thread before before replying?
I am trying my first hydro system, dwc.
Literally the first sentence.

Maybe I could maybe I couldn't. I don't know because wouldn't
waste my time trying or telling someone on their first grow its a good idea.

Where did the op say he could? He only had four posts in the thread.
Can I test my ph even if my water is kinda pink from nutes?
He didn't sound so sure to me.
It doesn't matter now its ten years old but, maybe you could tone the ego down in the future be a little less arrogant and actually read what you're replying to before implying people are dumb giving bad advice.
