I'm feeding the exact same as the other one, and this one suddenly seems sad, leaves are down, I didn't over water or underwater.

To me she looks thirsty. Every plant is an individual with different requirements and what is OK with one may not be what is right for any other. Try giving a deep watering to run off and I would be surprised if she did not pick up. Also, at this age and size, plants need surprisingly little feeding and it is very easy to burn baby plants with too much/too strong feeding, while they are still babies. Quarter strength every 7-10 days at this size should be plenty. Plants this size do have surprisingly long roots already, and unless you are deep watering to ensure your substrate is moist all the way through from top to bottom, this too can lead to droopy plants. Have a look at my diary "Holy Mackerel" to see the root system of a 3 week old seedling and this may give you an idea as to why it is so important to make sure the substrate is moist all the way through. Your plants roots will not explore/grow in dry soil, nor are nutrients available either. Hope this helps,.... Organoman.

It's not over or under watering, it's water damage!! As I explained in your previous question and explained here by others' replies, irrigation with enough runoff is crucial for plant development and root growth by aerating the soil and providing oxygen for the roots and preventing salt buildups in your soil which inhibits plant growth and causes the deficiencies/toxicities your plant suffers from. Good luck and happy growing :)

Would check end part of your run off ph. Make sure soil ph is good. If you are feeding it chemicals to grow. The old stuff builds up as salts effecting ph. Having run off washes that out and let's you measure ph of soil. So push old out while adding new basically. Having adequate aeration in your soil or substrate is important for this reason. Good luck hope that helps. Happy growing 🌲🌲🌲👊
