This week I haven't added any dry amendments or tea most nutrients, and continued to water with higher ph (7.0-7.2) water to try to get the 5.5 soil back up and fix the lock out issues. I had added 2tsp of molasses to each watering, and added liquid kelp to 1 watering. Right now my medium is pretty dense and solid. I don't know if I didn't added enough aeration (perlite) or if it's just the rootball. But because of the overwatering issues i'm mostly watering every 3 days now. Sometimes if i water less then every 2 days. Sweet Skunk #1: first to germinate and looking strong. The buds are getting frosty and just starting to thicken a bit. Sweet Skunk #2 germinated 2 days after the rest and it's not very frosty. It will probably need a bit more time than #1. we will see. Blue Critical: This poor girl has had so many issues. I snapped main cola, the soil got super acidic and developed bad calcium lock out. But although she got stunted and the yield will probably be low, the buds are the most dense and the thickest. Do stunted plants flower faster? Because she almost looks ready to come down in a week or so. White Widow XXL auto: Wow this one is in a 5gal pot rather than 3gal for the others and she is the only one that hasn't had any issues. She has been going strong and looked healthy from day 1 in spite of Ph and overwatering issues. She's much bigger than the other 3 plants.

@Ferenc, Thanks, You got any tips for not overdrying? Everything I've read says when the smallest branches snap. They sweet skunks have been hanging for 5 days and all branches just bend. No snapping.

Good Morning. Droopy leaves occur with both under watering and overwatering. If the leaves feel dry and are slightly thin, it's under watering. If the leaves feel full and seem bloated, it's overwatering. Looking at your photos they seem to be puffy, so most likely you're using too much water, especially if your note about giving each plant a gallon each day is accurate. Back to your data notes again, it sounds like you're continuing to feed with both the original all purpose fertilizer and have added the Bloom fertilizer as well? If so they're probably getting an excess of nitrogen. They're still growing and need some nitrogen for a few more weeks, but if you're giving both, that's causing the nutrient stress. Also, I noted that you said you've been tucking some of your leaves to expose the lower buds, but I couldn't see any on your photos. This is a key time to get all those dozens of under-canopy buds exposed, so if you can't do it by tucking, you'll need to do some aggressive pruning. If you haven't done so yet I suggest you Go to the GrowWeedEasy site and review their "Problems and Symptoms" link. They have an excellent section on diagnosing your problems complete with good photos. The last time I checked, Nebula Haze and her team had 500+ tutorials. Just be careful not to be one of those folks who go to WebMD and imagine they have every illness know to science! All of this said, you've been doing a great job with your girls, and I love the methodical and detailed entries...librarians obviously are detail oriented! You're doing great, so don't stress out and enjoy the ride. Take Care.

@Sweet_Seeds, Thanks. yes i have lots of perlite in the soil, but it definitely seems like I overwatered this week. I am still learning.

They´re looking really good! I think the droopinness is from overwatering, especilly using LEDs. Will bee following the grow. Keep it up!

Not a big deal snapping off the main stem. Happens to everyone who trains their plants. If anything, it was an unintentional topping and gives you an opportunity to see how the plant reacts to topping.
