Auto purple kush

2 of 3 of my purple kush are either wilting or droopy which is a sign of defiecency and I cant figure it out thought it was a humidity I got a humidifier thought maybe not enough air I bought a inline fan then thought it was not enough c02 got a c02 bag the soil ppm was low but the last 2 feedings I hit it woth a compost tea and then about 1000 ppm feed now this happebed woth my green crack and alot of people said its gendtics or plants go through up and down phases well I finally got nutes and hit it and they were praying healthy plants shouldnt droop so am I over watering? I have 2 airports one of them has an air pump I inserted just like the oxygen pot setup can it be too much light u have a 2.5x2.5 with hlg 260 woth dimmer should I be usi g less light? Does too much light make the leavss look like a fan has been blowing straight down20200503_125006|375x500

Check ph and temps and it could just be a hungry one if its yellowing at the bottom i think? It could be over watering maybe, how do you check that it needs water? Also im kinda doubtful its too much light as i have my bridgelux 240w panel an inch away from my tops in a 2x2

Ya I would guess overwatering if anything. What type of soil/medium? I have had a few autos sag like that in the days before they switch to flower, so it could just be a thing they do haha

Im having the same kinda problem with two of my plants and i think this could be that the light its overkilling tour space, maybe a combo of high temps and too much light.
Im sure i need a bigger exhaust fan to get the air exchange and to raise the lights maybe you should check that, peace.

I would let the pots dry out a bit raise light a little if possible but looking at 2 of your plants they look like they just flipping into flower so this may also be part of it anyways once dry water them right through then continue with a bloom/flower feed etc…
I run a few autos and many factors can play as others have said environment,water etc… genetics and strain type would play into it all.
Hope helps

I would let them dry right out and let them roots breathe for a couple days then hit with flower nutrients. I water my plants When they feel completely dry to let the root stare search for that’s juice and grow for a couple days between watering. I physically lift each plant to tell when to water. My Veg plants sometimes only get water once every 2 weeks with 2 days of dryness between. Hope this helps good luck

Thanks for the suggestions,so I got a c02 bag, I have a exhaust fan and a fan for fresh air its very odd because my plants in my closet are doing fine with none of that, maybe it is the lights, I found this 230 true watt on amazon for $100 bucks and it has the red diodes it comes assembled has a timer built in to it has a 2 year warranty,while the plants with the hlg 260 arent doing nearly as well,I think those lights with the included red diodes are alot better alot of these white leds, I haven’t had as much success as I did with the red and blue led lights, so whoever was saying that it is about the color spectrum even though white leds have blue and red in them those red leds are very strong I could literally see the plant as soon as I hit that bloom switch and the leaves at the top were completely pointed down very strong basically shining a big red laser pointer at your plant lol,which brings me back to the fact it may be the light the other thing is so if it’s suppose to be 50 watts per sq foot but then you have these new leds they draw way less power but are as strong or stronger then say a 600 watt hps so esp now if you have 2 quantum boards that draw 240 watts and is suppose to replace a 4 or 600 watt and puts out more par and covers more shouldnt leds have half that reccomended I meant isnt that the whole point of leds to put out same numbers with less energy…,I noticed that these purple kush autos need alot of humidity so maybe its to dry and its losing water from respiration,other then that therw doing good a little over a month old
