It should only be hard when dry in the surface. You may have compacted your soil too much when transplanting. I try not to pack it down to hard when filling in.

i dont really pack it down much at all, ill put soil in the pot, transplant the root ball, and then add soil and shake the pot to fill in the dirt, then add more, shake, more shake until full, i dont pack it or anything. Not saying youre wrong, it definitely feels like its compacted and hard.

On the bright side i watered my other plant and i think shes doing good. shes looking alot like this right now, which obviously i think is good? the top part is drooping pretty hard core, but it looks like some strains do.

Dont know then. This is why i really dont recommend getting help on forums. We cant know everything going on. And its consistancy that grows the amazing looking plants. Practice is all you can do. Once the soil is flushed and over and under watered and the plant has been stressed a while it will never be like it could have. I showed you 2 plants i screwed up. All i can do is nurse them to the finish.

We just do our best each grow until we find our groove. And we all still have problems sometimes.

Thats what i was wondering too, i was wondering if stressing the plant before hand could be biting me in the ass now.

Lurker chiming in here. How big is your pot? Any chance it's getting too dry between waterings? Also, it looks like the wilted part of the plant is something I would clip off anyway. Do you skirt your plants. The tops look good, it's the spindly stuff at the bottom that looks wilted.

@MIMedGrower i probably send you in circles with my issues, but in the end you make a difference bro. thanks for helping me build up the courage to well, just give her some freakin water that she wanted. Im getting this, slowly.... very slow.... but i am getting this!

THIS... THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER WATERED A PLANT, AND IT HASNT DROOPED UP ON ME RIGHT AFTER WATERING. I got this. >:D

She perked right back up like, literally within 30 minutes, i have her on video time lapse, of her going from droop to healthy, on my security cameras, i reviewed the footage just to study the movements, so i know whats healthy, and what i should see. Im getting this.

I do "lollipop" or trim the skirts of my plants. Im okay with a lurker chiming in, haha just cuz you lurk doesnt mean youre not experienced. Do you think its ready for a little hair cut?
