HakunaMatatastarted grow question 3y ago
Seedling leaves are looking droopy. 2 days ago I found it like that and watered her thinking that could be the issue but havent improved. In fact looks worse. Not sure what to do... maybe i did overwater her?

Hard to say. When did you take the photos? At night, the leaves sometimes look like that... What about the light? Are ppfd and DLI okay? I’m not exactly sure what a 400W HID brings at 85cm. RH might be too low. 63% is, I think, rather borderline at that stage.
Those are the first things that come to mind. Like I said, it's hard to answer because there’s no history with the plant yet. 😜
Happy gardening my friend 💪😎

If you control the rest somewhat, then it will be overwatering. A common reason for seedlings to look like this.

Thank you so much for taking the time and the various answers @Terp1!
I just realized I can post questions directly in the diary. Next time ill do that.
That photo is from last night. But its been 2 days like this. When the light comes up the leaves are still down.
Regarding PPF, im not sure, I don't have a PPF meter yet (ill get one). I read online that 400 HPS should be at 40cm from the plant. I left it at 80 cm because it was heating quite a lot (above 28 celsius), in fact the seedling stretched a lot so I believe they are not receiving enough light. Thats why i thought this was maybe due to overwatering (and not excessive light).
Ill increase the humidity and see how it goes!

Deficiencies at Day 60 or natural, expected fade?Does my girl look like she is suffering from a deficiency or is it a normal fade for day 60 since sprouting? What can I do as she definitely has a while to finish I feel? Any estimates on how much longer she has before getting close to chop? See most recent comment for details.6y ago

Trimming rusted leavesShould I trim the rusted leaves and small sprouts? On other plants I would get rid of them to keep the plant healthy, is that normal on weed plants?? They are starting to droop and I wonder if they’re holding the growth back. The plants plants 25 days in and not growing rapid.

Leaves fading and dying, started from bottom but spreadingI’m starting to be at a loss with this. Calmag issues earlier in veg, seemed to improve for a while but now bottom leaves started to die - I thought this was just due to beginning of flower but it’s getting worse and spreading even to healthier new growth. PH (should be) fine.

Struggling with deficiencies (nutrient lockout?)Hello everyone, I need your help. I've been growing 2 Green Gelato Auto from RQS but I've had some deficiencies for a while now. It's my second grow and it's the first time that I adjust the pH. They are in soil and I'm feeding them with Biobizz liquid nutes at a pH between 6-7.

Weak yellowing leavesNot every single time but quite often my plants are turning yellow in the middle of flowering. It starts from bottom and follows to top. I can basically “take off” leaves off stem and the upper ones getting dry and brittle. I’m also quite sure the ph level is correct. Any guess?

Why are my leaves starting to turn down or droop?Nothing is really any different. Watering about every 4th day when the soil is dry. I check the PH and adjust it, room temp on the water. This started just after the watering I did last Wednesday. Watered again today and it looks worse. Everything I see says over watering.

Soft hanging yellow leaves, some with brown spots in the middle. Deficiency, Nutrient Burn or what could cause this ?Hey guys, I got a problem with two of my 4 plants. They started to develop yellow droopy and soft leaves that start to fall off on their own.
I’m not sure if it’s a nutrient deficiency or blockout from ph or something else.
I watered them only with water ph 6.5.
