Hi guys, I've browsed the forum and I still cant figure out what is going on. So I have 4 plants in week 3 of Veg and I cant stop them from drooping. They are in 3 gallon fabric smart pots with a mix of Ocean forest and 707. I also am giving them 5ml of GH micro per gallon of water and when I water them they usually get 3/4gal of water. I let them go with dry and water them when they are droopy and still the droop continues so I'm not sure it has to do with under or over watering and heat isn't an issue I have it well vented and temp at the most is 80. Anything else it could be? Thanks for your help.

Got any with normal light? Give them a day if you just watered.
Sorry I don't have any lights in there other then those. They do seem normal usually for like a half day after watering like I did today but then they go back to like they are in the pictures. Thanks for the quick reply's I appreciate it.
The stems of the leaves seem normal just the leaves that are drooping
What does it mean if the stems are drooping? they aren't but would just like to know incase I ever run into the problem in the future.

When you overwater the stem of the leaves stay up, underwatering will cause the stem of the leaves to hang down.
Here’s a pic of a underwatered plant.
If it was overwatered that stem would be straight with just the leaves drooping.
hope this helps
Thank you it definitely does help. Looks like I just have to dial in my watering schedule. this is my first time using the 3gallon pots. I've always grown in 7 gallons,

My 3 gals generally like 3/4 a gallon or so every 3 days or such. Roughly around there.
