So i have a coco, organic soil mix and i have been under feeding by accident,. Not by too much though. I def have not been watering too much, water about every 4 to 6 days, and wondering if i am not watering enough. According to the hygrometer the soil is dry all the way to the bottom. The plants are def growing fast just look sad. Very droopy. Wondering if i shud water em today w full nutes. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

If the soil is dry, water. That might be all they need.

What's your % relative humidity?

It's probably just dry soil, then. See if they perk up a few hours after watering.

So turned up everything to keep vpd good. Gunna wait a bit and checknleaf temp. If it doesnt come up what is a way to raise leaf temp wo raising tent temp more? Just light intesity?

The leaf temps should rise right along with the ambient. Watch the leafs as temp rises. Do you have anyway to measure your light intensity e.g a phone app like Photone? Get the temps and vpd right before you start adjusting intensity if it’s needed. It might take all day to see how the plant responds to being warmer.

It will take a little while to see all benefits from raising temps. The pots will take a little while to warm up too.
