NEED HELP WITH DIAGNOSIS! PLEASE

[GR33NL3AF]

Hey,

So I recently potted up some sour diesel babies in small soil cups with Roots Organics and placed them under my 1000w HPS. The Lights were raised WAY up as to avoid stress. Within a couple of days they looked the way they do in the pictures. I am on well water but run TALL BOYS and have been watering straight from the filter (pH 6.1 - ppm 300). I only water when needed so I find it hard to believe it's overwatering.

The leaves droop but not a limp droop, they're still very hard like full of water. No signs of discolor or leaf dropping - they actually look very green and healthy, aside from the droop.

can you take one out of the light so we can see the true color..

If it were my garden..... (and you may not be able to do this if you already have the humidity in place)

I'd grab a pump sprayer...put some fresh/cool water in it....and foliar/mist everything really well.
Then I'd turn the lights OFF.....and I'd check on them every few hours and see if they perk up. My guess is they just can't keep up with their new transpiration rate and they are losing moisture faster than they can currently take it in.

Hopin for the best for ya. What a fookin FOREST!

Ya...sorry for the pics. Thanks for the help - my first intention is the intesity of light for the babies. Dialed the ballast down just after I took the pictures. Will apply your suggestion tomorrow, maybe a little B-1...

it looks like what your saying, swicthing to the high HPS watts. do you have a fan blowing over them in between them and the lights?

I can already tell you that you added too much Roots Organic. I had the same problem by adding too much root stimulant to a root sensitive plant. My plants looked exactly the same, and root stimulant was the only thing I did different that time. My strain was Lambsbread. It took about 2 1/2 weeks to fix itself. Had some killer roots tho midway thru flowering.

These were the roots 2 1/2 weeks in flowering

Yes they're in a climate controled room - (A/C, and several wall fans) Was going to turn on the CO2 to help them metabolise quicker.

Well the Roots Organic I am referring to is the soil - I have not given these babies anything. Unfortunetly I cannot say what was watered in before I picked them up. I am approaching the 2 week mark so I hope to see this change quick, I need to transplant. Any stress reducers like B-1 or super thrive?

Um... one ugly thought I just had when you said "Roots Organc soil" was that it seems like I remember Roots soils having problems with Root Aphids.... (???) I have never experienced these but a common thread for those who have seems to be a severe confusion as to WTF is happening to their crop....just as you are seeing. HOPEFULLY this isn't the case here....but as a precaution...have you iinspected the roots/soil/etc...etc..etc wiith a good scope to rule this possibility out?

I've had my share of aphids, hope they arn't back. Usually their would be more leaf dropping and discoloration. I will inspect anyways though, thanks for the heads up!

They look thirsty to me. I recently gave some friends some cuttings out of my clone box, they looked like that after couple days. They told me they were watering them enough, the same as they do theirs, but I told them to really soak them well. THey did and within 12 hours they were perked right back up. Try giving a couple a good watering and seeing if that doesn't help.

They look like too much light for the moment and too wet. Do they droop at the end of the 18 hr of light on or are they on 24hrs? Give them darkness and start foliar spraying with seaweed and let them DRY out!!

If they stay perma wilted you prob have verticulum wilt...

They're coming out of it - it was definitely light shock. They're growing like crazy now!
Thanks guys

my first impression was if they were clones they hated the light lol i had a couple do that to me my first half ass attempt at cloning stuck them straight under a 600hps they were laying on there side by morning lol
