Thank you I'll keep a eye on them !
Plants will droop during the day. Mid day depression. Its also normal at night for them to droop.

The only concern I would have would be root bound. As they becime rootbound they will dry out faster and droop. If that is the case and you dont stay on top of it you will see more things pop up due to chronic under watering.

i have even gotten dry spots in my rootballs that become hydrophobic and wouldnt take water.

What is the best option to prevent this in soil?

OK...now we know that. Regular soil grow.

Watering a plant in dirt is an almost organic natural thing that eventually you'll get a feeling for. Chicks get it...and I rarely tell people this...but early on, I learned to grow from my wife.

So how much nutrients are you giving it? Like pulling teeth. I'm trying to figure out if you are feeding too much.

JD in using green planet 2 part nutrients aswell been thinking about changing to flora nova veg and bloom what do you think ?

Well...hate to say it but I'm bailing after this post. Ate couple of cookies and am coming on to a pretty good wake and bake.

Organic nutrients almost always have some chemical nutrients in them. Because chemical nutrients work right away. My point here is you don't really know what you are giving them.

I feed Maxibloom to everything. 5-15-14 and use an EC meter to determine strength. If you want to know what you're feeding...you have to measure it.

I feed young plants at 200-250ppm That's not very much food. I'll bet you have something going on to mess with absorption.

Up-pot and see what happens...
