Hello all, I was in yesterday and she was looking like a champ, then I came back to her 24 hours later and she's all droopy. It was a warm day today. Does this look like Heat stress to you?2011-05-25_19-36-42_901.jpg2011-05-25_19-36-20_313.jpg2011-05-25_19-36-34_331.jpg

Can you list some stats? Like temps... Humidity.
I'm no pro, but looks like a case of over or under watering...

Temps 75 - 80. I let the soil get dry before I water (possibly an under water problem, it went 5 days without water but I stuck my finger in the soil and it was still damp 3 inches down) today got to be around 90+. The Soil PH is 6.5. so maybe a combo of not enough water and a day of high temps?

Could quite be a combo of both, the thing Ive read about such ailments is that there not permanent. Under watered plants as long as it dosent go for to long will bounce back fairly quickly.
I wouldn't panic... If your new to this like me, get a moisture meter there fairly cheap and it takes the guessing out of it :)

But yeah 90 is prettty effin hot!! Get some air movein in there!

Again all, the top of the soil was never chrispey dry (it did go 5 days without water). could it be that the soil is just holding on to the moisture too much? Does reverse somehow stop it from sucking up water (Non of the other girls are like this) here ill take a better pic. 1 sec.

I usually use the "less is more" approach. I've brought back plants that I thought were "gonners". I try not to rely on additives to solve initial plant ailments, that are a mystery, and hope to hit on a solution. When growing in soil, many of my issues have always been cured with a flush, and a simple temperature and nute modification. Still, i've killed the shit out of plenty of plants, to come to this realization. I hope to check back and find all is well. Good luck!

If you repot you could reoxiginate between pottings with h202. I've done that with success. or add h202 to your nute water I'm just throwing things out there,

Thanks guts! I tried a transplant but the 5 gallon is all roots. so I put fresh barely moist soil on the bottom in hopes of getting some air down there. the soil is definitely moist. I will put a little fan blowing at the soil in hopes of giving it some air.
