So lights came on 90 mins ago and they look droopy still. Should I be worried?

I built a new cloner with the black and yellow hdx totes. Damn they work perfect! Zero leaks and I'm sure they could hold 50 clones or more depending on the layout of the holes. Even more leak proof than the ez cloner classic at 1/3 or less of the cost

Check at about 4 hours into the lights being on, if they are still drooping, then you're lights are probably way too close. Do you have your lights all the way up? I start day 1 flower with lights 3' or higher up, then gradually lower.

Oh I see the light is all the way up, I'm not familiar with ufo led lights, that would have to be your call if they're too close, but if the heat is under control, I'm not positive what the drooping could be from. I bet they perk up a couple hrs in, they do look less droopy than they did when the lights are out.
I don't think you can over water in that system though so it's hard to say now, let me know in a couple hrs if they look the same and I'll go through some notes on the issue

Was your tote idea from stinkbud and is your animal cookies from seed by in house or clones?

I'm not sure who stink bud is but I'm sure it's probably similar. I've been building cloners out of totes for a decade but there was never a tote I didn't have to modify before. They always leaked! With these black and yellow totes from Costco, the lod sits inside the tote and it doesn't leak one bit
the animal cookies is a clone I got from a friend out in sac

I'm wondering if I shocked them when I trimmed all the lower stuff off about a day before I threw them in flower?

Same here bro, I been using them for everything lately, I might even buy them for moving instead of using boxes, I found them for 6$!

Hmm, I don't think that could have caused it, is your flood level all the way up so the net pots are getting 2" of water or so?

I looked underneath and it's shooting new roots like crazy so I think it's good. I might try to turn of a set of lights. Maybe too much too soon.

That's what I like to hear
I can almost give 100% certainly that it's too much light, those tents reflect like crazy and I had the issue before as well. I think it took like 2 days after switching bulbs before they perked up, then I have then another day and then put the hps back in, solved the issue. Since you're roots are doing nicely you've got everything in check, so it only leaves heat and lighting brother

Im wondering if ph fluctuations? Changed rez yesterday and set it to 5.8. Checked just now 24hrs later it's back up to 7.1.That's what I like to hear
Edit* just checked my veg and the look the same. I changed that res yesterday and just checked the pm 24hrs later and that's also back up to 6.8
Does tap naturally climb back up 24hrs later?

It does, some more than others, I have to check pH daily or every other day and adjust. Mine will climb (just pure tap water) from 6.4-7.2. With nutes it doesn't climb as much, and sometimes it even goes down! I mix my nutes, adjust to 5.6ph, it climbs to 6.2 at the end of a week or so. Sometimes I've been having it to down from 6.2 down to 5.8. But this is in my drain to waste systems. In my f/d systems is always goes up
