I would decrease light.
By either raising it or lowering the intensity.
Old leaves will not recover.
Watch the new growth.
I use a cheap $10 meter to help myself and plants with watering.

New Simplified Way to Water Marijuana Plants

To know if you need to water your cannabis plant get yourself a soil meter. Poke or drill 4 holes in your pot 1/4 way up from the bottom spaced around the pot...

I think your issues are water and light.
I am NOT a organic grower as situations like you are having take weeks to correct organically.
I like synthetics for my slow diagnosis skills.
Here is the thread on growing organic that will help you.

Growing with Gaia Green - Shaded's Method

Hello and welcome to my "Growing with Gaia Green" guide! Figured I would just make a post that can be referenced instead of constantly writing this out in DM's or threads. Gaia Green products are 100% organic dry amendments for cannabis use. They are a Canadian based company but they also...

Just a note on this, no it probably wasn't... symptoms you're seeing in soil/organics are from whatever was going on at least a week or so ago... it's not a fast fix situation. Organics take time to break down and be available for uptake. Always decrease light when you have sick ladies. Do you have a moisture meter, and if so where are you sticking the probe?

Flushing is a taboo subject in any grow medium. 🤬
In organics it is a no no and if you didn't fuck up to NEED it you fucked up doing it.
In synthetic the nutrients you flush were installed by you.
In organics the nutrients are in the soil. Think of organic soil like the bank.
When you flush organic you rob the bank.
Without adding back it has not enough left to do much.
I wanted to go organic but had huge timing pitfalls in my first and only attempt and went back to synthetic.
Many here will dis agree with this but you can use synthetic ferts in your organic soil.
You may need some if you flushed too much. Just how I think about it.?? 🤷‍♂️
Nothing good happens fast, but organic is even slower IMO.
Like TDS said, these issues did not just show up.
It takes as long to walk out of a forest as it does to walk in.

He might even consider a transplant to new soil... it's hard to know what's left, what's gone, what needs to be put back. He didn't really do enough water for a true flush... but still. I think there's probably some environmental stress happening too.

Yes they would be perky, after a couple days and soil starts drying out they begin to droop. I water, they perk back up in only an hour or so. And mannn everyone else saying they see no issue with nitrogen, this be confusing me lol.

I mean they are a little dark, but that's not the end of the world, could just be the light in the pic making it look darker... they will use up excess N pretty quickly in veg as long as they're growing. Have you raised or dimmed the light?

I dimmed the light from 75 to 60 and raised it from 28 inches to 34-35 inches from top of canopy

Photos this morning, very sad looking. Both are dropping now. Pots are light to pick up. Still confused what to do, thinking about adding some wormcastings or a a half dose of all purpose so it can break down in a couple weeks if that is the issue.

A moisture meter is $10.
It will tell what is going on in the pot.
I used mine every grow?

The yellow leaves down low may not be a big concern. No new or good growth will come that low. Plants naturally consume mobile nuets so if that is what is going on then a good regular fert should fix.
The wilt is an issue.
I used FF Grow Big ,Big bloom and Wholly mackerel in veg.
Then went to the three powder ferts for flower Open Sesame, Beastie blooms, and Cha Ching.

Yeah they don’t have them here. I’d have to order it off Amazon or try to find another store, which I live out in the country so not too many options

Think I’m going to give this try, has the major micro nutrients and claims to help bring back microbes
