Quick question 6 days ago I watered all 4 of my skittles auto flowers an gave a bit much an definitely noticed curling an drooping as well as slow the growth first time I’ve done it there 3 week into flower under 2 Mars ts1000 lights an a viviosun 300 watt light humidity stays around 50 and temp ranges between 81 and 74! Gave small nutes of bloom last feed 6 days ago! Also there in fabric pots 4 gallons each! Should I water them some today!

Water again when you pick those pots up and they are light. You can't "overwater" your plants just one time. It is frequency problem, more than a quantity problem unless you are letting them sit in standing water and/or cold floors.

Are your plants drooping today? If the stem that is holding the leaf is drooping, then it is time for water...if the stem is sticking up like normal, but the leaf is curling downward, that is a symptom of overwatering.

The slow growth could easily be explained as the end of stretch....you're in week three of flower, so it makes sense your plant is slowing down visibly.

I was constantly watering once a week that’s what’s so hard to understand about it

Yeah...confusing for sure...pics will definitely help. Are you saturating the entire pot or just watering right in the center? I break up my top soil and slowly water over the course of 30min from top and bottom

The flushed plant obviously looks better...could have been related to pH...calibrated pH meter?
Any odd smells coming from your soil? Recent icrease in light intensity? I'm running out of ideas
