Did you spill nutes on that leaf maybe?

Droopiness is normally under or over watering.

How about telling us a little about your grow like:
Soil
Nutes
Lights
Temp/Humidity
Water ph
etc...

A single screwed up leaf means nothing.. when it happens elsewhere thats the problem.. looks basically OK, not stretched, good color..as said above, whats your water schedule..?? I would repot it into a bigger pot..sometimes that can cure a multitude of grimness ... Luck.

well there is coloring on some other leaves. i think it is over watering. someone on here told me the other day that i shouldnt leave the rockwool cube in standing water as this will water log the roots. i have let everything dry up a bit and now i just water directly onto the cube and dont leave too much water at the bottom of the bucket. maybe if i do this for a while they will cheer up.

also.. alot of the leaves are dry. there was some wilting about a week and a half ago but i think it was from the temp being 100f. now the room is 80f. do you think the plants will straighten out or have i fucked them up too much?

I'm certainly no expert, in fact I'm a first timer myself but that rockwool cube looks like it's too small for the plant? Plus if thats been sitting in a bucket with any moisture at all it's bound to be mould of some sort... I could be wrong, just educated guesses from all I've read/seen so far.

i just checked them this morning and the cubes are still moist so i didnt add any water. if mold comes with moisture then how the hell would i water these things?

Sorry I should have clarified what I meant by 'sitting in a bucket'. I meant in stagnant water... have those buckets got drainage holes at the bottom? Air + old water will produce bacteria, if there are holes in the buckets and water is draining no problem then I'm not sure.

yes, originally i was watering them and leaving a half inch or so of water. my idea was that the rockwool could breath enough air and would soak up the water as needed.

now i water each plant manually by pouring a little nutrient water directly over the cube and i dont leave any extra. i just visited a couple of hours ago and and the cubes were moist so ididnt add anything. im hoping that i will be able to save some of them. i am using very weak seedling strength nutes. i think i not only drowned them but i burned them a little too.
