Hello. I usually have no problems in my grows but this one is stumping me. it does look a little better but I'm thinking I over watered. Although i watered normal and when they were ready like always.

promix
advanced nutrients
ph is always between 5.8 and 6.2
74 in the day and 68 at night
5 gallon pots
clones
21 days in the buckets
two 1000 watt hps
got air circulation
humidity is a little low at 45%

Thank you.

the pics show a few of them. There are 18 total and they all look basically the same.

Kinda....yes. you know I've never used a ph meter in the past just whatever it was it was. So this time I'm keeping ph in check.....maybe I'm getting to much nutes now because of proper ph? Would that cause the droopy leaves?

Well they had a slight droop to them on Saturday. And they were kinda dry so I assumed they were thirsty. So i watered. Then the next day I noticed drooping more than on Saturday. And it's been about the same since then. It does look worse in the morning also. But I'm just used to the leaves reaching right towards the light. Never ever had this problem. Like i said only thing different is I've been keeping up on PH.

I just did a light watering at a little less than 50% nutrient solution. They were feeling light but not like desert light. I added some holes in the promix to promote air flow incase that was my problem. I raised my lights 6" also. I'll update later tonight. Thanks for the help so far.

Nitro Tox wouldn't cause leaves to droop but they are looking a little dark green regardless. Just looks like your normal case of overwatering. Go a day past when you think its time to water and see how they look. usually with an underwater they'll look awesome and then you come back 6 hours later and they want to fall over.

Thanks for the response guys! I watered this morning a little lighter than normal. When I got home things appeared to look better. I mean still not perfect, but it seems that some of the drooping has let up. I'll know more tomorrow and I'll keep posting. The stems on the strain (Chem dog/sour diesel cross) usually have some purple stems. Normally they are so hardy it's not funny though. That's why I find it strange I overwatered. I'm hoping things are better by next Friday to start 1212. Thanks guys.

Well checked this AM and things appear to be the same.......better than they were but not perfect. Yesterday morning at this time they were definitely looking worse so there is definitely improvement. I'm gonna wait untill almost dry again and water in a few days.

Dude, those are not overwatered. Look at the shape of the leaves that are droopy. Notice how they are "V"ing? they are trying to run water down to the roots, it's a natural response. You don't do a completely dry cycle in promix (it is a soilless media not soil)- you want it to go from wet to moist.

I have to water every day in fabric pots.

What you think then?.......under fed? Would that cause drooping?
