Not Sure What The Problem Is

I'm assuming this is a deficiency of some kind. I've looked at a lot of pictures but haven't been able to determine an exact cause. It's been 4 weeks since potting this plant so it's still pretty young. Over feeding? I've been doing this for a while, not sure what happened this time. Feedback appreciated, thanks.

Not sure. Looks like a deficiency of some kind. I had the exact same thing couple years ago with some white widow autos from ilgm. Been growing for 34 years and never had that happen. Everything was right but they done just like that. I was told it was everything from over watering to wrong pH. I figured it was the seeds or the company. Good luck though
 
I think if you address the droopy leaves first the rest will sort itself out. Over/underwatering messes up the proper uptake of nutrients. I'm going to take a shot in the dark here and guess you were overly concerned with over watering and you let your soil become hydrophobic. Are you in coco by chance ?

Too hot mix! OP is already talking about adding food to a heavily amended soil mix.

I think the main problem is watering frequency? You can get away with planting in a stronger mix if you stay on top of watering and not letting the medium get too dry between waterings.

You should water to runoff every day IMO growing in soilless ie a peat/Coco coir mix.

Cheers!
 
That's the problem with online seeds. Everything is hybrid. That's like inbreeding for humans. Sure, every once in a while, one turns out okay. But most take a wrong turn somewhere along the way. It's way too easy for a company to blame the growers. Which they planned on to begin with. It never had to grow or produce. It's just another sale, money in their pockets. Think about it... If you have seeds that produce a plant that yields a pound or more, wouldn't you guarantee that. Like they're advertising a Ferrari that'll do 200+ mph, but they guarantee it'll crank. 9 times out of 10, it's not something you did wrong... it's them.
 
Looks as if the OP has given up on the post. More info would stop all the guess work. IMHO, it looks to be a magnesium ussue, coupled with over watering. Leaves not dark in color. That tells me not a nitrogen toxicity. GL OP!

Almost everyone I know that tried their hand at growing got stories like that. It frustrates them that they get a runaround, when it comes to internet advice and help. Too many people trying to sound like experts. Guy probably had a different group tell him the exact opposite. And three others said something completely different. They honestly don't know who to listen to. Going ten different directions at once. I like the IMHO approach. Or if it was me... You know, here's what I'd do. Not a lecture, blaming their inexperience... solution, throw money at it. They believe everything the seller said. They were expecting a pound, easy to grow,premo stuff. How do you tell someone they were conned,in a nice way? growers need to come together and change all this.imho

IMO, You can't really chase deficiencies/toxicity until he takes care of the watering issues you mentioned. If there is a problem in the root zone from watering it won't take up nutrients in the proper ratio's. So while I do agree it looks like a lot of different things mentioned, chasing deficiencies is just going to further complicate the problem. Fix the "root" cause. Fix the watering.
