Droopy (pictures)

Ya'll know my previous posts of my first miserable attempt to grow a plant. Im still not doing things right and even past all the advice for watering and what not the plant continues to just go in odd ways.. One day its Up and vibrant and the next is droopy as hell, but lately its been staying droopy and hasnt changed and im clueless on how to fix the problem.. ive tried everything I know of.. Would anybody please give me some advice .. I dont want it to die and it pisses me off that I cant tell what its problem is for myself..

its over watered..take a look at this page for common plant problems..Plant Problems

See I already guessed this one my main problem, and Ive heard from other rollitup members and other guides on proper watering but still CANNOT get it right.. The wierd thing is that its droopy and the soil seems dry as fuck, finger deep on the sides even with no moisture that I can feel so I automatically assume to water it.. Even then when I DO water the plant I really cannot figure out exactly how much I should give it.. Any advice?

and thank you for that site, I saved it to my favorites (very helpful)

dude ill bet a weeks pay that if you take that plant out of that planter there will be a root mass at the bottom , solution bigger planter goodluck

ive had the same problem recently

I was thinkin the same thing.. I have a 3g bucket ready for transplanting.. I guess its time to bust it out huh?

I guess ill do that and see how things go from there, but I agree with the first post that it has alot to do with an overwater problem..

be patient after the transplant . i did mine tuesday night and they are just now today showing signs of improvement, and when you transplant if there is a mass , if it is brown cut it off. goodluck!!

Thanks 4 the Advice, and heres some advice to you. Quit teasing the majority of us with that perfect body avatar =p

I actually haven't watered the plant sense we last spoke. 04-12-2007
My larger potting equipment is my buddies garage and I can't ever get a hold of him so im still waiting to transplant to a large pot.

but the plant is starting to rise up but still doesn't look as healthy as it should and I don't think that will change untill I get it into a bigger pot, so im desperately trying to get a hold of my buddy..

Anyhow, as I said I haven't watered my plant sense 04-12-2007 and when I stick my finger into the soil i still feel some moisture and I could imagine how much more there is deeper into the pot.. Should I continue to let it go through this somewhat dry spell untill I get it transplanted or try to water it again.. My better judgement tells me to let it dry up more to let oxygen get to the deeper roots before I water it again sense I did feel moisture..

Ill post pictures later, my cameras on the charger..

(I forgot to mention, I also ended up changing my grow area some.. I spray painted the inside wall/floor of it non-gloss white.. the type of surface didnt really want to hold the paint and especially the backboard but other than that, I still put all that shit on there.. and I bought a 200w flourescent ecobulb and threw that by my 75w and there raised above the plants in the box.. so the lights went from 175 to 275.. I have a 100w bulb but the lamp cover is to huge .. my question is what if I put my 100w bulb into my 75w fixture.. its those clamp/work lights you buy at menards n shit.. Would it be ok considering say 100w only uses 18w or so??

i dropped my plant and it did not come out of the pot but now it is drooping. it is in the flowering stage four weeks should i replant it or just leave along?

look to water properly you need a wet and dry cycle.....

you have to go by the feel of the pots, when they are dry and need watering they will be light as anything.....

to water you need to have a tray or something at the bottom of the pots so they water will stay their....

water the plants till their is water standing at the bottom and let it sit in that run off for 30 mins...

come back,,, if their is any water still at the bottom you need to disgard it,,, if the soil sucked up all the water then add some more and let it sit in the run off again for 30 mins and repeated if necessary,......

feel the weight of the pots when they have just been watered,,,, then feel them when they need watering they will be real light......

hope this helps,,,,, keep to wet and dry cycles its quite important for plants in pots......
