  • got two clones who vegged for 8 weeks now 8 weeks into flowering w/ one 120w cfl above each with 3 45w cfls on the sides of each. a humidifier keeps it at 45 and there is a great fan for circulation. i water a half hour before each lighting and both were doing fine then one day the taller one drooped at about bout 6 hours into lighting each day so i upped the water just one shot glass and it has stayed drooped since and the soil seems damp but not super wet about 3 inches deep and is dry above that. they are kept in 5 gallon plant buckets

    thanks a ton

id have to guess your overwatering.........you should only water when you lift your bucket up it fells light, sorta like when you lift it up with just soil in it and no water....

i water a half hour before each lighting

each day ?

after starting my seeds in 1 gallon pots I did wait like 4-5 days before watering them agin ..

after that like evry 3-4 days works well for me ..

now that they are in 4 and 7 gallon pots .. its more like evry 5-6 day but it will for sure be more often later on ..

lift the pots .. have to feel light .. roots need air ..

my plants at week 5 (in Veg)

as fare as I know ..you water them full ..

(that means you have to see some water drip out of the bottom holes (I hope you atlest have them)
and then wait and give them a chance to use it a dry up a bit ..

and soild schould be DRY a few inchs down and then maybe a bit moist before you then water agin ..

seems to me like your trying to drow em .. pots also seems a bit big for the size of the plants ..

but agin .. Im new .. what do I know ..

Did i say they are the worst plants ive seen for a long time , start again ,use better soil, what is that lawn clippings and woodchips? with perlite and when you water give the plant more than a shot glass, drench the pot, then let it dry and aslo be a good idea to feed it and use decent hid lights.
