So I'm 8 weeks on Monday into veg. Using pro 7 soil and perfect ph technology . I've been mixing me feed 4ml per litre and giving plants 3 litre water each . The small bushy heavy grape is looking great but the other few especially the tall backlava isn't looking great , my instinct is I'm underwatering but at same time I'm afraid it's over ....I'm really not sure , any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

They look overwatered to me.. Leaves are heavy..
Over watering is usually frequency not volume..

They look over watered. The tall plant has nitrogen toxicity. So does the plant to the back on the right. Back off on the nitrogen on that plant.

If you continue to over water the roots will rot and your plant will die.

Over watering is a frequency thing not how much you give at one shot. Over watering is a product of watering to often.

My soil is always bone dry when I water , every 2 to 3 days and I never have any run off when watering , that's why I thought I might be under watering , I'll back off with it though and maybe only give it a litre and a half each feed

You obviously did catch where I said it's about frequency and not about how much you put in at one shot.

Let me ask this. Do they always look like this even after watering??

Yes I caught that ...but how could I be watering to frequently when the soil is bone dry ? I will try a little less water but water every two days as opposed to 3 , see how that goes and just keep trying to twerk it if need be !

The tips seem to stay curled but the drooping of the stems ect rectify them self after a feed . The leaves are pointing up the way on two of the plants so that suggests they maybe do need a little more feed I was told ? And two of the plants the leaves are droopy as if they are slightly over watered...this is what I was advised today from someone .

If they perk up after a watering then it's probably not over watered.

How often do you feed them and what are you giving?

I give them 2 /3 litre water with ph perfect technology , 4ml per litre of water . Been doing this every 3 days and by that time the soil is bone dry . Read today I'm best not letting it dry out so much before I feed it so I'll try a little less water but every 2 days ?

Could be hydrophobic soil.. Does the water run straight thru or does it soak in? Bone dry is not good..

Yeah it seems to soak in nice , I give it maybe about a litre wait 20 mins then give it the rest and it seems to take it well , I've never had run off when feeding . I also started feeding a small amount from the bottom incase the water wasn't seeping all the way through as I'm nervous to keep flinging water into them and drowning them .

I'll defo stop letting them dry completely out , thanks.
