They do look like they are flooded/ As asked before you do see run off with each water and how often are you watering and how much? What PH are you use like 6.8-7.0? What is the soil mix and does it have a good mix of perlite or verm in it? Your using the soil trio pack and not the hydro trio pack correct as they are different.

No run off I am guessing you didnt put perlite or verm in it to keep the soil light and airy? If its just heavy soil then thats your issue your smothering the roots with water and no air

Fox farm ocean soil. About 6.5 ph I was watering everyday because the top soil was dry but just learned that that was wrong. How do I know if im using soil or hydro trio

Not a good sign friend, I dont think they have proper drainage. What is your soil mixture, did you mix in perlite or vermeculite?

to me it looks like the humidity dropped or it got real hot. maybe because of the grow tent ?

Idk it would have to be insane ranges for this to happen. I think the problem lies in his soil mixture

Yeah watering everyday is bad and Thats alot of the issue. Usually every 2-3 days is plenty. Poke your finger in the soil and if your finger goes down 3 inches with no moisture felt time to water. Also you can pick the pot up and feel if its heavier then when the soil is dry you know its time to water. On the grow Big bottle it will say Soil or Hydroponic on it. The hydro Grow is a lighter green color bottle then the soil which is darker green colored bottle.

You can transplant it to a bigger pot. Be sure to mix perlite with the soil in somewhere like a 60 40 or 50 50 ration soil to perlite. Your gonna wanna stop watering so much and let the plant breathe.Lightly lossen the bottom of the root ball before planting and if possible without breaking many roots get that mud ball loosened up.

well a tent is essentially a whole different environment, it would help your growing success if you were to monitor these things, not only that but it helps you and others determine what your problems are if any are to arise. I'd point a fan towards the soil and spend 5 bucks at walmart getting a hydrometer temp guage combo. Dont water for the next 5 days. Take a look at the bottom of your pot see if your holes are clogged, when i water my plants i look for about 20% runoff. lets me know that my soil is well saturated and can't retain any more moisture

I'm not sure if I would transplant if you just flipped, I'd be afraid to damage the roots, if that happens it will set you back a good bit I would have imagine

Way to much water. What temp you running? I think you are watering to much and you probably overload the nutrients in the soil past the point the roots couldn't process anything (including oxygen!). I'd drop the humidity to 45‰, keep temp around 77°, and no water for at least 3 days. Then only water as needed. I'd do the next two waterings with no added nutrients, then the next time you introduce them only mix half of manufacturers recommendation. Remember to slowly introduce new stuff to your plants. Invest in a good moisture gauge and remember the bottom stays a lot wetter than the top and the roots need oxygen.
