Therefore the pots are almost always heavy and then the plant suffers because of the dried out part of the root zone. Minewhile the wet part suffocates those roots causing them to die off and rot.

    Not a good combination. 😑

    Yes they are but not massively.

    When did you last feed them?

    I would give each plant 2.5 ltrs of plain, tepid tap water very slowly to make sure the whole of the pot gets wet. Lift the pot and remember the weight it is.

    Then in 2 days time lift the pot and if it feels like it weighs the same as it did the day you put the soil in the pot then they need watering again. If they are still a bit heavy then leave it another day.

    No longer than 3 days though, and as long as the pots are lifted to allow air flow underneath.

    Keep using plain tap water for a week and then the leaves should be more upright and less clawing.

    Then slowly add the nutes from there. If you stick around and keep is updated we can help you with when you need to add nutes and how much to add.

    Those pics are great.

    They only look a little over fed so you'll be fine. There's alot of N in Bat shit so you shouldn't need it for at least a week.

    The 5 ltr pots will need watering every 2 days maximum possibly even every day.

    I have 2 plants growing in coffee mugs and have to water them twice a day.

    Number 1 sign of underwatering is the leaves canoe downwards. Upwards canoeing means heat stress. Its a defence mechanism shown by the plant.

    That's because you have no air flow under the pots.
