    Default Droopy leaves?

    Hi all, so I’ve just hit week 5 with my 2 autos and preflowering has officially started. I’ve been giving them a 1.5ltr feed every other day. But I can’t seem to get the leaves to perk up they are constantly droopy. At lights on they go pick up a bit but don’t stand proud. Am I feeding less than I should be? I’m using coco and get a good amount of run off per plant at feeding time so wouldn’t the extra feeding be stupid as I already get a lot coming back out?
    All leaves a nice green colour, no problems showing. I’m stumped

    What Ph are you feeding at ?
    Whats the ph of run off ?
    Did you pre buffer the coco to 5.5-6.5 ?
    What nutrients are you running and what strength ? ?
    Are you using an EC /METER ?
    Do you have a ph pen or A Ec meter?
    What size pots
    What lights ?
    How far are lights?


    Coco is super easy However there is some steps that need to be taken

    Sorry mate missed that part lol. Didn’t pre buffer, first time growing so I’ve been useless up until here.il update brand of coco when I’m home. EC of tap water is 0.1. Using 11ltr plant pots. Calibrated Ph pen about 2-3 weeks ago. Just a shitty brand.. could be the issue

    av always kept it simple in coco bro, my background EC is same as yours super soft.

    so canna coco AB has always worked perfect and it keeps it simple... my veg nutes for coco are canna coco AB, Canna rhizotonic, buddhas green silicon. also use canna coco pro next time good stuff

    ph pens are important bro an them cheap shitty ones aint worth the hastle, you either top shelf which is your bluelabs ones or essentials brand which are half the price but just as good. long as your store them correct an dont let the tips dry out you be good

    are they not just droopy when lights off but perk up when lights on?????

    at 0.8 EC they shud be really green so that pen could well be letting you down, if you buy coco out the bag like plant magic or canna you dont need pre buffer it mate, i have never had to in my years of coco growin
