Plants need water to live and thrive. If the pot is very light, the plant might already be in water stress. When you water, how much water do you usually give them, and does it run out the bottom of the pot...if so, how long does it take to start coming out the bottom. You said the top layer was bone dry but it was soaked under the top... not soaked but pretty wet. How wet can it be if the soil is very light? Watering is usually a fine line, although I use Promix and haven't had problems with overwatering due to it's excellent drainage. Too little water will slow down growth and stress the plant. Too much water can drown the roots and stress the plant. Standing over and tapping your foot next to the plant stresses the plant. Almost everything will stress it, but small stresses don't usually cause problems. If your plant wilts from not enough water, that is bad. It will probably recover as soon as you water it, but if you do it a few times the plant suffers. I water mine daily, but again, my grow medium is different. I'd try to get on a regular watering schedule... maybe don't give them so much water at a time, but they def need water to thrive. On your next grow, you might want to try a different growing medium that is better suited to your style of growing, and just leave this adventure in growing up to experience. Despite a few hiccups, things worked out pretty well for you, IMHO.

Also they are 12 litre pots i was giving 3 litres in week 5 but when they started looking fucked i started giving 2 litres instead and after two they now come out the bottom. Im a dickhead aswrll i never got rid of drainage so pots just sat in it and where they are smart pots they absorbed into the pot and went mouldy i cleaned it with hydro prox with water it went,, i was mixing 50ml terra flores per ten litre, 40ml rhitz per ten litre (after i see them fucking up as i got told it was roots) 25ml canazyme per ten litre and i stopped giving boost accelerator cos i got told plants couldnt take it as roots were damaged,, then came the heat wave and temps wrre crazy sp they got fried even more, i am debating wether to make a feed of great white plant success (root food i got recommended) with flores, rhitz and canazyme with water and feed them slowly now as they need it? 5 plants are dry and very light but other 4 are still abit heavy and wet

Plants look finished, don’t know what mix of trichomes clear/milky/amber you’ve got. I’d harvest and get rid of the dried dead leaves, hang and start your curing...
Then for next time if you’re gonna stay with those lights, I’d get some enclosures that you could duct connect, to draw some of the heat out of the grow area. Open fixtures in side, in summer are too hot. imho
Plus I note you’re in the attic, heat does go up, and you’ve got infrared heat coming through the roof to boot.

Another thought is to grow off season, plants don’t care and your just trying to keep temps under control. Start two / three months earlier next grow.
I’m glad you didn’t burn the house down...

Hey, we all use what we got at the moment, no shame, but that’s one way to mitigate. Seriously consider when you’re going to start for next grow and adjust.

Mate I think your going off the wall for no reason everyone messes up grows. I know it’s a lot of time wasted but you learn more with fuck ups then you do with doing it right. Now for next grow you’ll be prepared. Maybe the 400 buck ac is a bit unneeded but you got this relax

Dan has a point. I would let the grow finish and get out of it whatever you can get and stop, think it over, and plan for the next grow, but do it correctly and correct some of the problems you had this time. New hood w/ venting (or a cool bulb enclosure), maybe an AC, change your grow time to night (keep things cooler), little stuff that makes a difference is your best way to improve. Get the correct growing containers, get a good growing medium... your plants don't look bad, they are just struggling thru a series of issues. Think it thru beforehand, and it will make it 500% easier.
