Why is this plant drooping?

[Still Vegging Bro]

Just need an idea on what to do to correct the Drooping ph good been watering every 2 days temps between 26 and 28.

Why every two days?

Random number?

What's the medium, soil mix?

I thought Coco was supposed to be watered at least a couple times a day.

Well seems to be dry about 2 inches deep every 2 days but further than the 2 inches I definitely see and feel moisture using coco peat it's got small pieces of bark best way I can describe it I did end up adding Earthworm castings.. the bag says Premium Organic Fertilizer Containing Earthworm castings... I checked ph of my run out it was 6.7 I been feeding 6.3 once with Molasses 7 days ago.

It is very tempting cause once she is under the lights and feeling the ventilation that top soil drys within hours but I'm scared I overwater... started off feeding 1000ml but felt it was too much plant started drooping recently halved that amount to see if she reacts differently I want her standing proud

1000ml is 1 liter?? was that amount of water or nutes lol

Yes correct and Water lol highly doubt this plant would be alive if that was nutes

aha that is what I was thinking. so myself I don't count days before watering I feel the weight of a pot of dry media then lift my plant and if those 2 weights feel the same then it needs water. however the weight of the dry pot you kinda just remember and go by weight you will never over or under feed if careful

 

[Still Vegging Bro]

True I have been doing that... I dont see beginners starting with CFL and led hopefully that isn't a problem I will be adding more cfls when needed I guess..

 

[r0am1ng st0ner]

I have no idea but I am using t8 fluorescent bulbs

 

[MickFoster]

I feed once a day to run off and twice a day to run off in flower. Many coco growers do multiple feeds per day.

i dont like the look of the soil , is there a lot of wood chip , whats the brand ?

 

[Still Vegging Bro]

Yes lots of wood and it's just called professional potting mix

Your grow media doesn't look like coco. NEVER let your coco dry out. Feed at least once per day. 6.3 PH going in is too high you need to be at 5.8ish. In a drain to waste feed system you don't need to worry about the PH coming out.

It's got alot of bark like stuff with some coconut fibers best way I can describe it and thank you very much will keep PH at 5.8 ... I have attached pictures of the actual bags of my medium used ... sorry I'm in South Africa so might not be able to read everything.

Thank you ... here is what my medium looks like before I added 1 layer of Earthworm castings...

I have uploaded pictures please have a look..

 

[r0am1ng st0ner]

That soil has added fertilizer and it is way too hot and your plants are not liking it is my best guess.

Have adjusted lights removed 1 big CFL raised remainder of cfls by 3 inches so now 8 inches away from the plant led was at 15 inches now at 20

 

[NuttyProfessor]

dig her out repot ,use a basic compost mix suitable for seedlings, , turn off the led keep the little cfl above the plant until she starts to point up ( praying ) , , if you can get some seaweed extract it will help with stress, in 2 weeks she will be as good as gold have temps around 25/28 and humidty about 60 , have a oscillating fan blowing on her also to make the stem nice and fat , the fatter the stem the more nutes will be carried and stronger she will grow
