Droopy plant in Veg. Pics included,,pls help

I am using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil, Sensi grow a and B, and fox farm grow big aggressive feeding schedule...I have been watering/nuting every day - every other day.... 2 of my White Russian babies are dropping pretty bad now. I recently discovered algae in their overflow res (roots have some Algae on them as well) I immediately washed and cleaned all the algae from the overflow cups and sprayed the affected roots protruding from the bottom of the pot with a peroxide and ph'd water mix.Any advice on what to do?? Is the drooping coming from algae on my roots? If so, how do i treat this? Thanks all!:leaf:

You only feed when it needs it and unless your nutes suggest dosing every feeding then you better get on the right track before you over fert them. Get a soil moisture meter so you know when the soil is dry enough to feed.

Agree, deff over watering/feeding. I use a moisture meter too (theyre like 8 dollars) and it has a scale 1-10. when it gets down to like 2 or 3ish it needs water. Also feel the weight of the pot when its dry and remember what it feels like for future reference. Letting the soil dry a bit is good because it encourages the roots to grow and search for water which in turn makes the plant grow.
 
Thanks so much for your rapid post indipow82... I was thinking that overwatering could be the culpret as well but seeing some algae in my res and a little on my roots spooked me and got me thinking...I will invest in a soil moisture meter asap as well... Any more thoughts or comments?
 
Thanks indipow82... I backed off from watering the next day and they have perked right back up... Now i see signs of a bit to rich on my feeding... I will take note and try feeding about 3/4 strenth in another day and we should be dialed in.... Thanks for your feedback! My White Russian is looking very sexy.. perhaps i will post updated pics soon, maybe with better camera as well lol
