Such a loaded question...

Looks to be a watering issue. What's the watering routine? How much, how often? How are you determining when to water again?

@TheGreenTroll

Leaves drooping in a curve from the base of the leaf usually means too frequent waterings and not allowing significant dry back. Leaves that droop from the stem and point down usually indicate a plant starving for water as its tucking everything as close as it can to help preserve moisture loss.

Your plants to me look like they aren't being allowed the time to dry back enough prior to watering again.

Welcome to the Farm,

I agree they look very droopy compared to earlier pics. You must have changed something. I'm guessing too much light for the amount of water and O2 she's able to pull through transpiration and she is cowering to try and protect herself, likely caused by root issues (she looks like her roots are saturated and not getting enough O2)

What power is your light set at? Have you recently upped the power, or lowered the light? What are your watering practices, are you allowing enough dry-back between watering?

It's too late now, but it's best to fix problems like this before flip to 12/12👊👊

I should have used a bigger pot, so water saturation was more stable.
I'm planning on next time rigging up a circuit to detect soil water levels and automatically pump in when necessary.
Still making adjustments to the work flow as this is maybe my 5th grow.

Would added carbon help at all?

Well it is droopy. The grower seems so excited it's flowering but i see a issue. 👁️👁️

Well we'll see.
I'll keep updating but in reality, the plant will live and grow buds with lots of trichomes filled with silica and I'll cut it down and dry it and smoke it. 😂

My watering practices are wait until the pot is light.
I don't base it off perceived soil saturation.
It's the weight of the plant when I pick it up. If it picks up like a feather and it's been 3-4 days.
I water.
There is also a dehu in the room with hygrometers that tell me when all the moisture in the tent is gone.

I've seen your plants. You're hurting them with your watering practices. It's not only I but quite a few others who see this as plain as day ...

One of my Widows slowed down drinking in week 2 flower. I caught it first time but missed it at week 7 and cost me some yield.
This stuff happens.

Gotcha, is it because they are storing the water in the bud itself vs being transpired through the leaves?
So there is extra moisture in the plant and it doesn't need as much water?

When I do water, I flood it until there is significant run off so that I have an accurate testing base.

Well, I'll post results at the end
Because it's not about the journey on here
It's about the destination lol

Okay, we're only trying to help. Most of us have been down this road before. You'll still harvest but your buds will not have reached their full potential. With a small tweek, you still have a chance.

And when people who grow plants that look like this are giving me advice, that's when I default to issue lol

Why even waste 3 months of your life on that?

It's obvious to me that your incompetent, with a small tweak I have a chance.
My plant is already 1000x better than anything you've grown
What are you guys talking about
You guys grow garbage, I've looked at all of your profiles.
What the fuck are you even talking about I have a chance
