Wilted plant. Dried her out, then re watered. No change.

So as the title says, this plant is wilted. First grow, and I've been reading into what could be wrong, but I'd like the advice from more experienced people. Since I dried her out, and she hasn't gotten better, could it be root rot? There is not apparent moldy smell coming from the dirt.

This is what I use for them:
400w HPS
76-80*normally
Sensigro, b52, voodoo juice, and rhino skin

Plant is fine. Not under watered. Don't go fucking around with it would be my advice.

That size plant in that pot I would expect to water every 5 days. Or 6.

Both are good then?! I posted two photos; one of the droopy plant and the other a normal plant. If that's the case, then thank you! It just hasn't been perky at all the past week or so.

Also do you mean a 5 day rotation of water/nuts? As in water it then wait 5 days later to do nuts? Thanks

Personally I add some nutrients every watering, And I end up watering every 5-6 days or so. I think f you are watering much more often than that you are going to create soil moisture problems.

I just follow the label directions as far as the fertilizer application, generally.

Uh, i may be wrong here, but im seeing early signs of cal/mag def. Pic 1 and 2 both look like some of the bigger leaves have a slight brown hue to them.

Well I couldn't say if it's over watered or not, but how big is that bucket?? Cuz it ain't filled to the top with dirt to take advantage of the depth for root development...and also what's your lighting schedule?? I usually go 16/8 or 18/6 for veg cuz it seems the down time really let's them perk up the next day...and about over watering...it depends on how much perlite you mix with your soil??? and with 3 posts I'm gona take it your fairly new :roll: so get some perlite to mix with that soil at least 60%soil/40%perlite...I do mine 50/50 so my girls get fresh water/food every 3rd day, so it depends on your drainage on how often you should water...good luck and welcome to RIU...BTW, not too shabby :bigjoint:...

Thanks guys! Next watering I'll make sure to add extra cal/mag.

Also I'm using 50/50 FoxFarm and Coco as a medium.
