All the leaves pointing down tells me it’s something in the root system. I prefer small pots of coco myself. Have you tested the EC coming out after a feed?

It's promix hp... I'll be diving into the coco in the fall. Spend some time in the summer downtime and redo my area. Instead of a tent I think I'll just build another room 4x10 or 5x10 to make it easier on myself and give me some extra headroom.
Tests are comming this weekend. Lights on at 6pm so I won't do anything until then at least. She's got some leaves curling too so I do suspect something going on in the medium/roots and EC. Poking the top of the soil it's firm and when I put my finger in I feel nice roots close to the top so there's a couple contradicting things going on. Will run some low ec through her next watering (likely tmrw or Sunday) and see what's going on. I'll ph test the medium today. If it's acidic well we know what the issue likely is.
It's also possible the droop is from the light. Measurements at canopy were pretty high and the rh is fairly low. Could have something to do with it as well as watering too much

Definitely not a droop from the light imo.

It's just weird to me to run off with promix. I've never done it. Always feed feed water feed water repeat in the 'old days', then when I advanced a bit I got more into ec and feeding every event with a lower EC with maybe a plain water here and there. Takes sometime to dial in a new program usually a grow or two....

Now getting my feet wet with coco I'm liking it much more. You know when you get into a certain way and just do it that way because well that's what works... That's where I was at. But that gets stale. I think I can bring it up another level with coco. The control is much higher. There's + and - to both but I think the + outweighs the - in coco. I just need to set myself up so it's manageable with runoff etc. I'd like to plumb a line right into my drain to deal with runoff rather than manually removing it.
At this point I'm just making fun stuff like diff types of rosin, fresh frozen BHO and bubble etc and keeping the a+ for joints.

Yep ec rose up in the pots. The pp x fpog was insane high. Everything else was manageable. Error corrected, low ec feed/flush and we should be back on track
Feed to runoff from now on

Thanks @bk78 for troubleshooting with me. After 'flushing' out the pots the leaves are starting to perk up again slowly. EC dropped to 1.5 or less in the medium, and feeding till runoff from now on. Funny because the heavy feeders were much less affected than the light feeders and I likely wouldn't have noticed so quickly if not for the yellowing leaves on the pp x fpog. Seems like pink panties is a light feeder for sure. Basically the ec rose up and began to lockout other nutrients,
Just some things we deal with when changing setups around. This is a new game to me, led bar style lights and diff nutes, bigger pots... Which actually I think hindered me as well. I'll be going back to my 4gal pots me thinks. That and having to deal with health issues with myself and the wife, time constraints etc.. shit happens. Good that it was dealt with swiftly. Hopefully recovery will be prompt and they can keep on keeping on. Pics on lights on later

Did they ever bounce back again?

Hey. I remember why I don't grow in the summer o_O I always have an issue with my furnace and hot water tank blowing back when it's hot out and I have my extraction fans running. Been dealing with heat issues, blowback from gas units, humidity, and whatever else could go wrong. I ended up cutting down the 2 pp x fpog because they were really fucked, and I didn't want them potentially causing issues with the other plants, and fresh froze it. Had some foxtail due to the high temps and intense lighting but the other plants are better, and starting to bulk up again. Geez what a nightmare. Been a hell of a start of summer over here. I'll snap a shot later.

Ya ... Shit happens. It's not even that bad tho Foxtails are a bit of an eye sore but the buds are fine. Still sticky and stinky. I keep meaning to get a pic. It's just when something's not much worth bragging about it's not on priority lol. Either way I'll be re running these in the fall.

Dude. I can’t wait till winter. Battling this summer heat sucks man. And I’m so deep into flower. Lol.

remember when I first met you dude, we did that sf1000 grow off kinda thing thru dm. But I said I wanted to run 15 cuts? And you put yous on the back burner. Wall. I’m thing of doing 15 cuts. Each a different strain.

Lol always a struggle.... Summertime is way harder for me. I knew it would be cutting it close but we had an early heat wave which fucked me up. That with everything else piled on top kinda made for a shitty run. Oh well, it's not like it's ruined or anything. Just not as appealing to the eye atm. Once it's cut and dry it'll be fine lol
