Hi,

Can anyone tell what might be wrong with this individual, why the leaves are hanging like this?

smoke closed the stomatas or it's dying because the soil and water is ugly.

elaborate on what you think may have caused this.

looks like it could be a few things,Ventalation,Light,Soil,Pot size. I would start with a fan, getting fresh air in. Then get some bigger pots and some FoxFarm if you can get it where you are. what size is your light? you might need to bring the light closer to the plants. hope this helps.

Well.. I have an intake fan, I just thought maybe it's not getting enough fresh air in..
It's 250w hps about 13" from the tops.
I use Biobizz nutrients.
Maybe another clue, I have noticed today that some of the stems have red color, is that normal?

red color is normal. and if anybody smokes in the house. don't let it be around your plant.
other than that it looks over-watered and the ph could be off

Yea, i agree with tafbang. Could be overwatering and ph off, get a ph meter and check it. also if your using tap water, i would recommend to leave it out in the sun for a full day then mix your nutrients. You could also check the ph of your final nutrient before you put it in. should be 5.5 to 6.5, hope this helps.

I transplanted it a week ago, it used to grow on the windowsill and I moved it into a closet, into a bigger pot.
It was also the first time I gave it nutrients.
I check the water PH using green drops and a paper chart.

You have any idea what's going on?

The ph is 5.5 to 6.5 - I use PH Down powder to adjust it. Maybe overwatering... currently I water every 4 days or so.
Last time I gave them water the upper inch of the soil was dry but deeper it was still damp. Maybe I should have waited more time.. what do you think?

It has to be the environment, your air is ugly. but I'd still go with ph if you're being realistic

Have yet to measure RH... I'm using "light" soil bought from the local hydro shop.
What is the optimal RH? I've seen opinions where people write it should be 50% and others who write it should be 30%...
