Vertical Leaves

2 days ago the plant was looking very happy, true green with no issues. Week 6 now and My Humidity at 51%, Temp at 22'c. Just as I was looking at her last night, she appeared to start drooping, my first initial thought was i shall feed her tomorrow(last feed 3 days ago). So today, her leaves instead of just drooping, the leaves are completely vertical resting along the side of the pot, on week 3 i tried fming it, thats the only technique used because of the auto but since then, it's only good. Until now, i'd like some advice.

What's have you been feeding her nutes wise? And can you upload any pictures they really help get the answers your after.bongsmilie

Temps are low for vegging, reduces transpiration and water uptake (including the minerals in it).

Are you using soil, DWC? too little info to really know what is up.

Thank you so much guys for super quick response :)
Feed includes General hydroponics set. also including some cal-mag + bio silicate + also multiply - ph'ing water from 5.7-6.3
picture will be available later on this evening.
I fim my auto BEFORE reading that it stresses the plant and is not an excellent idea seeing as it has a short life span, mistakes are made, lessons are learned haha i won't be doing that again with an auto, but its progressed massively since that error so i'd assume Fiming it had nothing to do with its current issue.

It's okay, don't worry it's somehow restored itself after feeding, maybe she didn't enjoy the draught. Just a quick one though, how often should I be flushing with ph'd water, no nutes....

theres no flushing in soil. when the container is dry note the weight and then add 1/4 of the volume in water. 1 gallon container=a quart of water. dont water again until (container is )light again. feed according to the directions on the bottle, dont use items your plant doesnt show a need for.

No flushing in soil? He is using general hydro. He needs to water to 20 to 25 percent run off each watering to leech the salt from soil. I grow in soil. I also flush with 3x pot volume 1 week before flower and then water only water for a week in transition to make sure it uses up most of the nitrogen it can. I then start with flower nutes. My suggestion read......a lot. I wait until my pots feel like they are full of air but just before it wants to wilt. I then water with 25 percent run off with either my nutes or just water depending on the day. I'll post a pic of current grow. Cheers and happy growing.
