Can't solve droopy leaves problem

[Dude]

Hey kind people, I could use some help with a problem I can't seem to solve. I have two Six Shooters in planters. I weighed the pot dry at 15oz, wet at 30oz and let the plants get down to 17-18oz before I water again. I water until I get a 15% runoff. The plants are in FFOF. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Water has been 6.8 . I wish I had more info but this is my first grow so I'm learning as well. Thanks again for your time.

Are they just like this always or just in darkness? Meaning when lights first come on you notice this? Mine will do this when it's cool a.m. before lights on then it warms them up and they start waving at the lights.

They're like this all the time. I took a leap of faith thinking maybe they need more room. So I took the rest of the soil i had and filled up a 7 gallon squat pot, didn't have enough to fill it but it's 3/4 full and if the roots needed more room, now they've it. I figured I have two so I took the leap on one hoping more room was what they wanted. First grow and I'm learning, just feel bad because it's not the plants fault I can't understand what they're trying to tell me. Anyways , the roots looked nice and white and growing like crazy, so hopefully the larger pot works and the other one can hold on until my soil gets here. Attaching another picture of # 1 in the larger pot. Thanks for responding SoOrbgal.

They might be like that cuz of the strain - look on your seed producer website to see what they should look like.
Your transplanted plant will probably sit like that for a week while she fills the pot with roots.
Overall your plants look very nice and have a lush green to them.

Canuck147,

Thanks for your help and responding. I truly care about my plants, so I try to take good care of the ladies. Can't remember what video I watched on YouTube but the name was the same, are you by chance the same YouTube grower? Really wished I had enough soil to fill the squat pot full but I did what I could do hopefully it helps. Also watered the new bed with two cups of blackstrap molasses, seaweed and a touch of Calmag so hopefully she takes. What's everyone's thoughts on the lighting for the transferred plant, should I keep her off to the side of keep with direct lighting? Thanks again everyone for the help. ✌️

What is your temp and humidity?

 

[Dude]

Gjourney, thanks for stopping in and trying to help. Temp, last I checked was 75.4 and humidity was 49, possibly 51% due to watering in the tent. Usually I keep the humidity under 50 or right at. Air exchange is running at half speed and oscillating fan runs all the time. Also playing tunes for the ladies..✌️

 

[Canuck147]

Direct lighting - and no I don't post anywhere else but on this site.

 

[Dude]

Canuck147, thanks ✌️

 

[Gjourney101]

Well that is a good reading for your plants. Could just be too much water in the middle of the pot

 

[Dude]

Gjourney, thanks for looking out ✌️. Just wanted to update, I transplanted into a 7 gallon squat pot, I know it needs more soil but that's all I had on hand and I'm not buying anymore because I have 150 pounds of soil coming.. Lol.. Anyways back to my topic. I wasn't expecting anything until next week because of the transplanting but I just went to take a look and the leaves are starting to come up already. Attaching a picture and will keep you people informed, thanks for showing concern and being good kind people. I'll do a before and after so you can see the leaves coming up.

Was she roots bound when you transplanted her? 🤔

 

[Dude]

MeEasy, roots looked good, not bound and nice and white. She just needed more room. Thanks for stopping by ✌️

 

[MeEasy]

If she wasn't root bound I would say that she was either over or under watered because the only reason for them to be sad (droopy symptoms) in a pot is if they run out of room or watering problem. Of course if it's a nutritional problem it will affect em but I don't see a nute issue. I've added a link that might help you avoid future problems. Any problem big or small affects your timing and harvest. Good luck

Dude, drill about 100 holes around the side of that little plastic pot, it'll make a world of difference until you can get it re-poted.

 

[Dude]

Man, loads of thanks to everyone for their help and advice, it means a lot. To answer a three questions, Homegrown, if I ever run into this issue again I'll definitely f do that, thanks and good looking out.MeEasy, no, when I took her/then out I made sure to take a good look at the roots, if I had a third hand I could have. The roots looked nice and white and clean, nothing apparently wrong. I'll be sure to check out the link and thanks again everyone. I'll keep things updated.
