200ppm is too low for a plant that size. Needs more food....

The ppms are a little low but not that low.
How much higher can you with a plant that
small? I wouldn't go over 400 ppms. The
drooping looks more like over watering. How
many times a day do you water? Try cutting
back on the water and see if it perks up~
I never like HPS lights for veg they may
work but that don't mean their okay~

thats good though man, this is why you gotta listen to your plants they tell you everything you need to know, look she is hungry ( this is what the plant looks like when she needs food) they are clever you know you just gotta pay attnetion!

Its nearly impossible to overwater when using hydroton, especially top dripping using Dutch/Bato buckets. HPS works great for veg and is perfectly okay. Plants that size could easily take 500-600ppm........
