I would transplant into some good nutrient rich potting soil.

The drooping is from over watering and the yellowing is the start of Nitrogen leach.

Not a big deal. Let your pot dry out until it feels light every time before you water.

Feed it 500ppm veg nutes in this pot, or transplant and wait until 2nd watering to add any type of nutes

Looks very dry. That is why your bottom leaves are drying out. Your bottom leaves will always be one of a few ways to know your plant has issues.
They have been ready for a bit to go into bigger pots.

Good rule of thumb to check water if you go by how heavy (some people lift there pots to feel if it needs water) you but a try underneath them. Your will do a bottom feed its called. Fill the try up with water and let your plant drink it up. Do this till it stops drinking. Then pick your pot up and that if full LOL then you can easliy pick the pot up to know.

that is more of an old timers way to water. This brings the roots down to drinkl and will help you get a healthy root system.

Hope it helps

Thanks everyone. I thought I was over watering so i had them dry out. I'm using ocean farm soil and I started using stump tea for nutrients. I'm going to be transplanting into bigger pots tomorrow.

Did u mean fox farm ocean forest?? Or exactly why you said? I've heard that stuff is HELLA hot and would be careful about burning plants adding nutes w it.... Not person experience just research I've done
