Drooping leaves

partlychilistarted grow question 5 years ago

I have a 2 week old plant that have drooping leaves, so i researched a lot and the most probable cause was over watering, so I spaced out waterings and let it dry up almost completely but to no avail. Could it be its current pot is too small?

Wurzeln oder Topfgröße würde ich jetzt auch vermuten. Das Medium sollte ok sein du fütterst ja schon. Beim nächsten Versuch einfach mal plagron Erde kaufen die ist speziell vorgedüngt für die ersten 2 Wochen. ;-) Ich nehme Mineral Wasser ohne. Kohlensäure zum gießen kostet zwar etwas mehr aber der PH liegt dann zwischen 6 und 7 nicht wie beim Leitungswasser bei 8 oder höher.

The medium is soilless, premixed peat / perlite i bought in a local shop (PLATINIUM LIGHT-MIX PERLITE). I have no idea about ppm and ec, no way to measure it right now (it's my first grow) I've been watering her with some nutrients (Platinium - organic grow) @ 2ml/L every other day basically. Ever since I've seen the drooping, i've stopped the nutrients and only watered with ph water @ 5.8 in case their was too much nuts..to no avail. I'm considering transplating to a bigger pot but in her current state isn't it risky?

Your pot size is fine , I’m more curious on medium, your plant looks healthy just droopy, which looks like an over watering issue, but what are your PPM and EC looking like ? They might be out of range for proper nutrient/uptake My Hawaiian Runtz had a similar problem. What medium are you growing in soil/coco ?

Is this normal?Hey guys and gals, it's my first time growing so I just want to make sure this is a normal looking Seedling. It sprouted about 2 days ago and is smaller than the rest of my seedlings. Maybe genetics? What's your opinion?

Should I be concerned about the curled tips on some of the leaves. Watering only when the bucket get light and switching over to mostly RO from here on due to nitrogen concerns.

Help! Droopy leaves still Should I go ahead and transplant to larger pots? These roots were long before I put them in these less than a gallon pots (all I had at the time) they’re still droopy after transplanting them on Friday. Afraid the pots too small for how long the roots are from the clone machine.

Curling wrinkled leaves This specific plant in my grow room has some leaves curling downwards, they also look very wrinkly and almost feel dry, it's only the two top leaves. Didn't water them for a week after transplant, since soil is still wet.

Why are some leaves curling strangely?Hello everyone, the problems begin unfortunately. Why are some leaves curling strangely? I have not given any nourishment, the temperature and humidity are constant, will it be a problem of PH or EC? Thank you in advance.

Stressed Seedling Is this overwatering or is the soil too hot (FFOF)? Week three now and growth seems slow, likely due to an early transplant? Removed the ziplock I had over her for humidity and have a fan going 24/7 now. Thank you for any advice! :)

Calcium excess, which led to potassium deficiency? Or just light burn? Or both? What's wrong with my girl? Please, help.I've been giving her BioBizz in accordance with the schedule, including CalMag. Using tap water (250-300 ppm). So my only guess is calcium excess, which led to potassium deficiency. However, only the main cola is affected now. So I also suspect light burn. What's your opinion?
