the dropiness, if permanent, tend to indicate improper watering pratice i would say as well as some of the plants seem to beg for some more nitrogen or may be ph imbalance both could cause some yelowing and pale green leaves.

I have PH up and down and a meter I have been testing the water and getting just about the right PH could I be over or under watering?

 

[HerbalEdu]

yeah possibly under or overwatering. weighting the pot should give you a hint.

i also seem to see on your photo that the light green plant on the bottom right seem you repoted a fabric pot in another fabric pot, if that's the case you shouldn't do that roots usually very hardly grow through fabric pots

Ya I was kind of experimenting w that one the guy at the hydro store said they are biodegradable and u can do that so i was kinda testing it but roots were growing thru them like crazy

What’s the nutrient problem? Signs looked like Magnesium deficiency.. Am I on the right track with that? Also it’s about as tall as my 72” tent is. Actually had to top it as it was reaching my grow light here’s the thing, I’ve had it on 12&12 for several weeks, while I’ve always used a larger “made myself” tent, this has me worried. Never experienced a plant this tall that didn’t look it should be flowering on its way to buding. Could really use help on this grow, it’s got me worried it will outgrow the tent again and no results.

what size bags?
what medium?
how often you water?
how much water per plant?
what nutrients do you use?

 

[Zdubs]

3 gallon bags
Around 6-6.5
I was watering every other day but I think when I'm watering I’m not using enough and I haven’t been measuring how much I use for each plant
Silca blast - Cal mag- grow w a lil super thrive…. They seem to doing a little better last 2 days since a good water/ feeding

proper watering pratice are key:

plant roots don't like either permanently too wet or too dry soil. An alternance of both , not going too far a side or another is essential.

for exemple overwatering isn't necessarely watering with too much water, that's oki if you let it dry enough afterward, overwatering could be watering too often with small amount of water maintening the soil permanently too moist.

i personnaly prefer to water with larger amount of water less often.

if not done yet you should moist the whole soil till a little run off then give 5-8 days dry back or so, then you may need to water with smaller amount for a week or two until the plants get big enough, then you should start again watering till a little run off or close.

plant saucer may help.

a good pratice is to weigh the pot before and after watering till a little run off this way you can get used to the weight of the pots when it's dry and nearly saturated.

beware of too dry soil, that may be hydrophobic and require slow watering to remoist evenly.

Just one looks like this anyone know what this is rest just lookin a little droopy and some leafs yellowing that I’m taking off

Looks like over watering.

Next is the PH issues, or your soil is out of nutrients.

 

[Zdubs]

Tips are curling up and and a slight pink on a few plants

 

[LaMotaBruja]

Looks like overwatering, CalMag deficient, or PH problems/lockup.

Question: when you PH, do you use both up and down? At the same time?

I have mostly been just using down

 

[goner]

what are your temps?

 

[LaMotaBruja]

Good… only use PH up or down… not both at the same time.

This is going to take a week to fix. Stop watering. Once dry, start watering. Cut dead leaves, plenty of posts on this.
