So I went to water my plant today
Pot was light and dry
I watered with 2 liters and I got just a bit of runoff and let it soak it up since it wasn’t much
I’m growing organically so I try an get little to no runoff
it’s been doing this lately but this time more noticeable dropping almost like clawing down
Could it be using too much water at time of watering? Or issues with drainage or ?
I don’t think it has to do with drainage I used a lot of pumice , basically it’s just a soil mix of peat moss,ewc and pumice with dr.earth ferts
it droops right after watering and then it perks up a few hours later or by tomorrow when lights come back on..
should I use less water ?
And not let soil completely dry out?
And so it absorbs it easier being slightly damp Thn completely dried out soil? Specially since letting it dry out completely can have microbes

Thn it perks back up Few hours later or by next day (old pic):
