Droopy Leaves: Problem or just the strain?

One of my plants has unusually droopy leaves compared to the rest of the plants. Is this indicative of a problem or do you think it's just the genetics?

It's the plant on the right in the picture, the plant on the left is a good representative of the rest of the crop.

It could just be a nutrient sensitive Phenotype. Looks like the leaves could be clawing a bit.

Could be a something else, but if your PH - EC/PPM are all in line and the other plants are loving it, that would be my first thought.

They are in Hydro, it's getting plenty of water, the bottom of the rockwool is still in contact with the water as the roots aren't hanging that far out of the pot. But yeah I'm thinking that it's just it's genetics, as it's growing wonderfully.

Looks like ph problems. Your other one in the pic is starting to droop also

Hmm, I've been keeping it pretty steady but it has started to drift up a little bit. Also, I've been using Sodium Bicarb for pH down, I'm going to pick up some of the Hydro pH down tomorrow at the shop.

Thanks for the tip!

Baking soda will raise pH, it wont lower it. Also contains a good amount of sodium which may not be such a great thing.

Sodium Bicarb isn't baking soda, that's Sodium Carbonate you're thinking of, but yes I've had quite a problem with TDS raising because of the sodium in the pH down I was using, just picked up the actual Hydro pH down today.
