help me..

This is what my OG Kush (5 weeks tomorrow) looked like this morning when i went in. Previous to this it has had no sign of defects.


Last night i forgot to crack my window when i went to bed to circulate air because im short on money for a second fan for the tent right now, but i figured out if i leave my window cracked it stays 80-90 degrees lights on 60-70 lights off. but now they are drooping heavily and the stems leading up to the leaves are very stiff u can barely wiggle the leaves but they are still smooth and not crispy and falling apart. What can be done to keep my plant from drooping anymore than this, Also what can i do in the future to completely prevent this from ever happening. i like to see my plant perky and pretty when i walk in my grow room. not like this.

may be overwatering.

perky and pretty

No one likes droopy saggy tits, ok.

A lot of the immediate issue is the way you got her potted down, you really need to remove her put more potting mix in then replace her, then water well, see the walls of the bag are preventing her from breathing well, you may just cut the sides of the bag, but I'd just pot up, and yeas get a fan and increase ventilation, you may need to put some red(2700k) light on her, if not now then later

Reduce watering and temps.

Yo, 1. the pot is not the problem, water can drain through that cloth so im pretty sure it can breathe. 2. i doubt im over watering but to be sure i will decrease water amount. 3. Its in veg, I dont start my Super HPS + 12/12 + Tiger Bloom for 3 more days. it is going to grow just fine, i just dont like to see it like this. 4. If you have anymore advice i'd be glad to hear it, that goes for everyone. everything im seeing im putting into consideration as a possibility.

Actually i believe its the water amount, i gave it 750 ml today. thats probably way to much, and i know it has a small amount of heat stress from last night. anything else i should know?

 

[bl4ze:20]

currently i have a 600w HPS Metal Halide on 18-6 , the bulb is 24 inches from my plant and the humidity varies between 17-30 %

 

[bl4ze:20]

Once i switch to my 600w Super HPS Bulb im going to move it up 6-8 inches depending on light strength and im going to start using tiger bloom feeding twice a week + big bloom once a week.

i aint a pro im just starting out my first grow as well, yours is 2 week older than mines but it looks like overwatering
ive got 3 sweet deep grapefruit in 10 or 12 inches pots (probably similar as your plant pot) and so far i've been watering em on a 4-5 days schedule with 2 bottles of 500ml so i give em 1l water for each plant, i just go easy like 250ml by 250ml wait till the soil absorbs takes couple minutes and like 20-30 mins after watering i often clear out the water that dripped on the plate


ive noticed my #1 is dropping her leaves at night like 2-4 hours before lights go off and in the morning her leaves are all up toward the lights
the 2 others arent doing this tho

that looks like some over watering to me especially with how suddenly it happened. the coloration would suggest nitrogen deficiancy as well. and vostok is right you need to get that girl in some deeper media that pot is only 2/3 filled.

im using 3 gallon smart pots. when i was under fluorescents my leaves were always pointing towards the light when it was on but they dont do it under my HPS, this is my first grow under HPS, im not new to growing in general. its just different having a tent and a light that produces this much heat and low budget so cant buy all the equipment i want right away. if i had the money i'd have my plants set up on auto watering timers with tubing and bamboo.
i had 3 successful fluorescent closet grows, and this HPS and grow tent combo has given me nothing but issues due to my lack of experience with them.

 

[bl4ze:20]

i dont know that the amount of soil is a problem just yet. i will be getting more smart pots tomorrow which are 2 gallons bigger

 

[Rileysgotluck]

what is your enviroment like? HPS runs significantly hotter than flourescent which could be your issue as well it is probably running to hot in there making it humid for my 6 girls in a 5x5 and a 1000w it takes an 8 inch fan, and AC, and a ocilating fan inside to get my girls to that nice 72-79 degrees

If this went away and happens next time you water then over watering is an issue but if you've grown before I'm sure you know if you flooded it our not. If you watered even close to normal you obviously have other issues. If this is looking like this every day I'd transplant no matter what just to resolve what ever the issue was with fresh medium and pot. Even though it's a 3 gallon pot it still could be root issues.
