So these girls started drooping and i dont know why...any help would be great! My first time doing this....
Pic postedpictures...?
So putting it into a smaller 7 gallon pot is a bad idea? Also ive been watering regularly, you dont think its maybe over watering?Looks thirsty?
I think this is another example of small plants in big containers and the difficulty people have watering them correctly, particularly new growers
Recommend starting plants including autoflowers in smaller pots and up planting them as they grow for best results, good luck
Edit: the last thing I would do with that plant is up-pot it
If that were my plant, right now I would water that entire media as if I was watering a big plant, and I would continue watering that way as if it were already full grown
what size pots are they in now? and i agree with beachwalker!So putting it into a smaller 7 gallon pot is a bad idea? Also ive been watering regularly, you dont think its maybe over watering?
10 gallon. They were watered after reaching a very dry point. 10% runoff. Then 4 days later again. 2 days after that they all drooped badly. So i stopped watering for several days and they all perked up. Feeling the soil it fel dry in the top half but deeper its very wet. The moisture meter reads very wet still. So i gave the. A small dose of calmag water ph'd to 6.2 and they drooped even worse.what size pots are they in now? and i agree with beachwalker!
So i should start just watering to 10% runoff and w nutes too? You think theyre starving due to the large pots holding the water deepee than the roots are accessing maybe?what size pots are they in now? and i agree with beachwalker!
They're not going to die. Good idea to transplant into a smaller pot.Another thing i did was add a wire shelving system. Previous they were sitting directly on the floor I know it seems inconsequential but it was shutting off a huge area of aeration and making the pots sit in the runoff. After adding the wire shelf system theyre all up off the floor and able to run off very well. Tons more surface area to allow capillary action to occur. Even if these die from the crazy mistakes, i feel like ive learned a lot about what not to do with autos and the next run should be a little more streamlined for it!

Cold will also make plants droop. If they look like this in the morning when the lights first go on, that could be the problem. Sitting directly on a cold floor could do that, too.
