She's droopy - Normal? Help?

[Why Doe]

So I can't really figure out what this is if it's actually a problem at all. Over watering and under watering look the same. I don't water until the first inch or 2 are dry. So I don't think its overwatering. Temps stay below 80 and humidity is around 40-50% with fresh air coming into the tent. The 450w light is a foot away so don't see it being heat stress. I haven't fed many nutrients during this grow as it hasnt shown any signs of deficiencies, I made a pretty good soil mix. I do have a small fungus gnat problem, theres not many but i see a few. I dont see any signs that they are doing damage, like dying yellowing leaves but I am no expert.

Could you maybe answer the questions in the How to Ask for Grow Help sticky? Background info would help, as much as you can provide.

Most of that information I already stated but I updated it.

Thanks. Wow, it looks like you're doing pretty much everything right as far as I can see.

Can you get that temperature down five or ten degrees?

(And though I don't think it's related, maybe you could lower the pH of your water to 6 to try to lower the pH a little. (I assume that 7.4 number is for runoff, right?)

 

[Why Doe]

The temp generally stays around 75, during the hottest part of the day it reaches 80 but dosent stay there long as I have timed my lights to turn off during that time. The runoff is at 7.4 ive been feeding with 4-5ph but it still stays above 7, I've managed to bring it down from 7.8 but not making great strides.

 

[Why Doe]

The plant seemed to perk up a little since the feeding I just gave it, so hell maybe I was under watering? I hope its that and not the fungus gnats. Next feeding I am giving it a mosquito dunk.

I have a nursery tomato plant in peat moss with runoff in the 4s(!) despite having been watered with pH 8 water for weeks. You do what you can. (And the tomatoes look great BTW!)

Let's hope that's it. Seems likely. It looks like you are doing things right!

Can you spot anything wrong or does she look mostly normal becides the little bit of drooping.

I don't see any obvious problems...

tips are burning, but being half strength, tuff call on why. FF is a pain in the a$$ it seems.

Rilly? Can't see it.

 

[Mayne]

i see 30 burnt tips,

 

[Why Doe]

There are some burnt tips yes, but not many and not severe at all. And it's nothing compared to some of the plants I've seen lol

no they are not.

 

[Why Doe]

She's still droopy. I gave her a flush today with the mosquito dunks if it dosent get better my guess is a root problem. Which I don't know where to begin on fixing that.

 

[ManInDirt]

Plant looks fine to me? I don't see the droopiness you are describing.

Whenever I check on the girlz before lights out..a few of them are a little droopy, like they are anticipating darkness...an hour after the lights are on...(could it be as simple as that?)...everyone's fine and enjoying the light...I, as well, don't see much droopiness...cheerz...h00k...

even with 20 hours of light?

 

[dr.h00k]

Well I prefer to keep a schedule that imitates natural light patterns...but a schedule is a schedule, so yes, plants could react to what they're accustomed to...if your plants are droopy mid light cycle, then you may have issues...but honestly, the pics you have provided don't show much droopiness to me...cheerz...h00k...

 

[Mayne]

Im not sure they anticipate darkness. They dont sleep for 2 hours even after the lights are turned off. so they dont even see it coming,..Maybe im wrong,lol.. Droppy is overwater, from what i hear. Let it dry out, the droppyness will go away. Even in coco.
