    Default Over water? Under water? Or neither.

    Hi guys!
    I feel clueless after reading a lot of the stuff on this site.
    I’ve only done a few posts, this is my first grow.
    I’m just At 4 weeks veg and plants have started dropping.
    I left for an extra day as I thought it was over watering but didn’t solve it
    So I gave them 1L of feed each seemed to perk up.
    Came to check 2 days later quite dry but all leaves drooped.
    Growing in coco in large root pouches.

    He has, correct. I’ve read it and now realise I should be watering everyday and never letting dry out.
    Does this mean they are in fact lacking water which is why there dropping?
    Thanks

    Do they not perk back up after a watering? A thirsty plant will recover. Don't let the coco dry out like you would soil. You'll soon get the hang of it.

    I gave them all there first watering where I actually get run off yesterday. Think they took 1800ml per plant to achieve run off.
    I’ve now got them on a bit of a shelf and trays underneath them so there not sat directly on there drain.
    Will put some pics on later if there’s any newbies that wanna try and make something similar.
    Thank mate .

    I’ve just checked them and they all look even more droopy now. Should I leave and not water today?

    Hello mate, what is your ph? You should be at around 5.7-5.8 by now with an odd feed at 5.6. You need to feed every day with a really good run off every time. This will keep the ph stable. Ec should be 0.20 above the level from the tap. Increase by 0.20 as the plant needs it.
