Brothers Grimm Purple Urkle 99 x Genius Droopy

Hey fam, I'm running Brothers Grimm: Purple Urkle 99 x Genius, Genius Juice, and 222, as well as Seedsman: White Widow. The Purple Urkle 99 x Genius is throwing me for a loop at the moment - she looks droopy no matter what I do. My most common probs are always watering related (hence, I've got the airpots for forgiveness) so I was thinking maybe I've been too inconsistent with watering...but as you can see the second pheno is 7 days behind and they both droop. I just watered this morning so they look excessively droopy, but the rest of the strains get the same amount of water and are looking fine. The younger one will bounce back but the older one tends to look droopy all the time... started out looking great but then around 18 days she started tending to droop as her resting state.

SO, I'm wondering if this is just a characteristic of the strain or a sign that I've legit done something wrong here (too much water, too little water, inconsistent watering - I'm usually watering every 2 or 3 days depending on how light the pots feel). Has anyone grown this strain and experienced the same thing? OR, has anyone done seen this before as a sign of watering issues? Here are the room stats:

Pheno 1: 31 days (just top-dressed with DTE 4-4-4 so the yellowing on the lower leaves ought to slow down in a week or so)
Pheno 2: 24 days

Soil:
30% ProMix HP
30% Perlite
20% Compost
20% Worm Castings

Water: always ph around 6.8 - comes out of the tap around 9.4 so I use black strap molasses to bring it down and often add DynoMyco Spark to keep the soil alive.

Temp: ~78F
RH: low 60s
PPFD: ~250 (The Genius Juice was showing some light stress so I'm keeping it low at the moment...250 always feels a bit low at this stage but I've had this before where I find I can't really bump it up to 300+ until week 6 or 7 when they're really rolling.


Been growing for 3 years now but still make mistakes left and right, so I appreciate any tips or advice!

Update: it's been 1 hour since I took that photo and Pheno 2, the younger pheno, appears to have bounced back just like the other plants. Pheno 1 still looks the same (see new photos).

Does this mean that Pheno 2 was underwatered (but now it's ok) and Pheno 1 is currently overwatered?
