I would say overwatered. My method is stick your finger in the medium up to the first knuckle if it’s dry.... water. Or if it fees light she needs water. I would agree with NorCal just a shot glass or two at the moment will be perfect.

My guess is if your asking it's usually overwatering. One or two shot glass fulls right at the stem is enough for her right now. Happy Growing!👊

pH: how often using same testing liquid / pH changes in larger cans over days?
pH adjustments need to be done before each watering. a.)How many times do you reuse the 7.01 adjustment liquid before opening a fresh one? When can I not trust it anymore? b.) Adjusting in a tea cup and adding to 3L can for watering for the next 2 days ok or will pH change again?

pH woes. To water or not to water, that is the question.
The tap water I've been watering my plants with is very alkaline, the pH came out to around 10 when I measured it with a digital reader. Should I water it again with pH adjusted water early or wait until the soil dries out to avoid overwatering? Soil and nutes pH was ~8.6.

problem with Advanced Nutrient GroMicroBloom ! I took a photo, I hope you can see small particles from fertilizers in the water!!
I have a problem with fertilizers!! why are some particles floating in the water on a new three-day solution similar to those that have settled on the walls of the pot! that is why some kind of sediment and brown flakes and small particles that float appear on the new solution!

Ph soluzione nutriente aumenta da solo?
Ho sbagliato qualcosa nel misurare il ph e anche quantità nutrienti(era 0.05 ho messo 0.5)sembra si siano riprese ma ho rallentato tutto😔 domanda:è normale che il ph della soluzione preparata aumenti da solo? Era 6.4 oggi 7.2🤨

Nutrients - Too early for quarter/third strength?
Hi 420 Family. Quick question: Would it be too early to give them quarter/third strength nutes at this stage? About 2.5 weeks old (since they broke soil).

Friends, help me understand what the problem of the plant is!!
I can not understand that with plants different tips come most people think that the problem is nitrogen! Others say it's zinc or cal-mag! I can't decide how to properly help the plant! I also thought maybe it's too much blowing inside the box!?
