    Drooping hydros

    I have a grow tent 3x3 and I have never had this issue.
    I use advanced nutes so it auto corrects the PH but I cannot figure out my my hydro plants are all of a sudden wilting. It started small with a few branches and now all but 2 look dead.
    I almost saved them yesterday by tying the dropping branches up but now not even that is working.
    it seems in the day time they look ok but not great and at night they look like the ones in the pictures.

    These plants were doing great for over a month and now they look like this? I know I have to prolly scratch them and start over but I would like to know how this happened as I won’t do anything differ t my next grow and unsure how this happened.

    please help.

        I cut the dying branches and a few of the branches felt hallow? Curious why.

          Hollow feeling stems and branches is pretty normal on these. They are hollow.

          I haven't had this happen to me on a hydro setup but outdoors when things run dry they will do this. Colour is good, pH is probably fine, what is that big black air blowy thing pointing at them?

          EzPz you wrote that your nutes auto corrected your Ph. I don't see how that is possible. Tap water is going to very region to region. If your using tap water?

          I'm a soil grower. So I have no experience with hydro other then what I have read. But I think you should check your Ph

          My tap water is a Ph 8.3.

            Advanced nutrients has a line of “Ph perfect” nutes.
            I have used this for 3 years and this is the first time this has ever happens. The plants ended up dying without discoloration or reasoning.

            I checked my Ph just to be sure and it’s 5.5 so not sure what happened here it is a mystery to me.
