i bought a clone from the medical marijuana despensary in LA
i have a grow cabinet that its in right now with 6 27W CFL's
one intake fan, one outtake fan, and one fan that just circulates the air inside the grow box.
its about half a foot tall
it doesnt get overwhelmingly hot in the grow box
it stays a comfortable temperature.
but today i looked at it and it was drooping!
then it just kept drooping.


keep in mind i just transplanted it into really good soil, its called canna terra
i really need to know what to do

i willl post pics tommorrow

but any advise would help so much,
thanks!!

humidity is at 55 %
thats what i was thinking it might have been, from transplanting it
but who knows
and no one will really know until i send a picture
i just hate to see them drooping like that :[

yeah thats what i read on the internet
when i transplanted the clone into soil i saw roots breaking through the bottom of the rockwool it was growing in
i guess we will see tommorrow how it looks.

tthanks for replying fast, i needed a second opinion

Just be careful with the amount of nutrients that will come in contact with the freshly cut/hormone dipped area. I know in rockwool/hydroponic setup, the added regular veg nutrients will shock the HELL out of a clone. Of course, cannot tell w/o pics, but you might want to consider keeping the clone moist in the soil, and just keep the nutrients away for a while.

Another option would be to place the (if your pots allow) pot in a shallow pool of nutrient free water, and allow it to wick up into the soil that way. If dehydration is the issue, you will be able to tell in 10-20 min.

To be honest with you, the clone I bought and planted valentines day is doing the same shit.. It looks droopy but the new growth is coming in nicely.. Im just keeping a close eye on it. I dont overwater/underwater and im trying to circulate fresh air as much as possible. My first grow never looked like this so im hoping this clone pulls through for me

If the pics are recent and the new changes look to be to the positive... give it some time and you are good!

Humidity helps clones as stated above, but I also learned through a lot of trial and error (in spite of encouragement to foliar feed) to keep the leaves generally dry. droplets collect impurities in the air and can concentrate them on the leaves. the droplets can also act as little magnifying glasses. and if the droplets are on the underside it can choke their stoma. Just my two bits of trial and error.
