Hello everyone.
I have just started my first grow 3 weeks ago. I grow soil, on my balcony since that is the only option I got. Also I can only grow autoflowering plants because they are quite small, and hence remain unseen. So I got 4 Pandoras, and 4 Easy Ryders on my balcony right now. The problems started about 10 days ago, the plants stopped growing and turned light green - and droopy. I do suspect that I was overwatering - used to water them once a day - sometimes twice, because the soil is very light and has good drainage - i was afraid the soil dryies up to fast - that's why I added the leftover perlite over so that the sun would not dry the soil directly. I don't know yet if that was a good ideea. For the past 5 days I've only watered twice, and some new leaves have started to apear after 10-12 days of beeing stunned.
What i want is someone with experience to confirm me that the overwatering was the problem - and maybe tell me if I can still expect them to finish in some way.
Here are the some pictures:
