so i've been having problems with two outta 4 of my clones. The stem is really thick and strong looking but the leaves seem to be droopy downwords more as every day passes. It's pretty bad to the point where the bottom leaves are touching the soil. I figured it would be overwatering so i stopped watering them and they have been without water for the past 3 days. I was feeding them 200ml to each plant every other day. Another conclusion i came up with is that they were root bound because i had them in 4x4 rockwool cubes for 4 weeks from cutting and tiny roots were coming out of the bottom so i transplanted them into gallon containers with fox farm ocean forest soil last night. As of today them seem to be getting a little worse and now the other two healthy looking plants seem to be heading in the same direction. I don't know what to do and today im switching the light cycle to 12/12 to begin with flowering and im gonna start feeding them water with bloom nutes in the next day or so. Should i hold off on the watering or am i underwatering them?? I currently have them under 3 four foot t5s 2-3 inches above them. help!!

Clones aren't as stable as seeds and it is normal for them to seem droppy for quite w hile. Right now since you transplanted them I would move them from the light for a day and move that light up to about 8 to 10 inches for about a week. If they aren't doing well they don't need to be stressed any extra. And I DEFINITELY would not flower them now. Thats is just going to add more stress to your already stressed out clones. :blsmoke:

8-10 inches?? isnt that gonna make the plant stretch? Well i got the clones after being cut 2 weeks ago. They were doing excellent up until these past couple days. I don't know what to do???

Now it won't make them strecth because they are not ina growing mode right now. They are in an adjusting mode and you are stressing them out too much. They are trying to tell you that.
