No I just watered them, as that was them coming on after a 12hr shift. There still like that. I know when my plants under watered, it's not that. I'm thinking ph or potbound?..

No, I'd just watered them. I know plant signs for needing water, but it's not that. I wouldn't say I'm heavy with the water. I water once a day, from top and bottom.

There droopy with fan leaves turning yellow. I feed it biobizz yesterday. How often should I feed.
I raked the soil bait to try and loosen the soil as it's bait compacted now.

Looks identical to my plants. Been having the trouble a month into flowering and they are in 5 gallon smartpots in coco. They are all clones and only vegged for a week. My opinion is over fertilizing, lock out, root bound or not enough light. I cant figure it out. But I'm right there with you on this one.

Stick my finger in the pot and check the weight. I thought once a day was too much too, but these grow tents can get quite hot.

Thats bullshit and under sized pots will reduce your harvest and stress the root system.
Problems are due to the pot being too small and the soil being ordinary at best. Next time repot prior to flowering and dont water unless your sure the plant is drinking it, ie dont water if pot's still heavy.

So tell me then mate, how do house plants in tiny pots that you need to water every day not jst die of being root bound??????? The size of the pot depends on how often you want to feed. I've got a friend who grow's monsters in 1ltr pots watering twice a day. I've grown a few crackers myself in small pots watering an hr or so after lights on and an hr or so before lights off..... Just cos YOU cant do it dont say it CANT be done!!!!! TWAT!!!!

I am fairly new to all this growing but I don't think being root bound in itself is enough to kill the plant. Seems to me like it will definitely stunt growth. "root bound is a myth" is a false statement what you could have said was with proper feeding a root bound plant can still perform adequately but you cannot argue that being rootbound will not affect the plants growth.
