I got up today and they look droopy and some are really yellow on the bottom, i have no idea why they are all like that, might be the heat it goes all the way to 98 sometimes. I also tested my water and my soil. the soil is very acidic in some, some its high, 2 its ok, the runoff in almost all come out at 5.1, some 6.0. I cant seem to get them all stable. any ideas. i did use neem oil yesterday would that cause it?

To me that's just to hot for umm mate ...Ive had my plants go and look all screwed up like that and a few of your leafs have blister on them so yeah its your temps being to high....I'm not a soil grower so i cant help with that but they will recover from high temps so long has your sorting the problem out and not letting it raise to high again...Ive also had plants of the same strain sat side by side and one is fine in high temps the other was all blistered and screwed up....yeah you'd think they both would be the same ....good luck with the grow...I'd aim for between 75 and 80 and they should be fine ...Ive tried plus 80's and for me it just screwed the plant up...not that all plants are the same... just my experience...

Well, I see a few diferent things going on here myself. 1 being its looks as if they may have had some sort of "nute burn" at 1 point in time, and are trying to recover, or like you said stunted. 2 I see a few leaves that looks 2 me like a "cal-mag" issue going on. 3 . If PH isn't around 6.0 6.5 you could be locking a few nutrients out, and the plants root system will not be able to use those nutrients.

Let me ask you, how long has that soil been in there ?: cause if it fairly new, then it could be hot, but the plant is needing (N) cause I had seen some yellowing, and when you do add nutes, with the soil still having some nutreints, plus what your adding, it ends making the medium to "hot" for the plant..

yup...likely too much heat, upper 90's is very warm.....and too many nutes and/or over watering can cause drooping..... also I would consider some Cal-Mag.

Yep, PH is too low. Some plain old water and reduced temps might be all you need. I wouldn't add anything but the basics until they're looking happy again. We don't know what your watering or feeding schedule is, but I suspect too much on both counts. Aside from flushing them out with plain water, only water when they're about 70% dry. On feed, start with a 25% solution and go up 10% at each feeding until the tips of the leaves just BARELY show a bit of burn, then go back down 10%. However, it's hard to advise not knowing what soil you're in and what you're feeding them...

i feed once a week and water when they're dry and light, i know the ph is really low in a few and high in a few, i feed 7.4 water and it come out 5.1 in the black gold soil, foxfarm comes out 6.1 and espoma is the only one that's doing great.....also i don't feed my FF soil yet, they turn yellow then green again because of the ph but i never feed, only some calmag water for all and nutes for BG and espoma. thanks for the advice I'll post some new pics soon, they been looking alot better with the ph adjusted, i give it calmag water and wow a big difference

Neem? Bingo. Cant spray neem in high heat and not expect damage.

take them covers off of the orange cfls foo!!
also build a reflector for your lights you will get MORE bud, think of it that way.. how is heat getting out of your grow and does that air get expelled into a closed or open environment? if so you either need a/c or you gotta get a fan in the room that its in.
key is to not mix the intake air with the exhaust air and your all set.

Dolomite lime is the answer my friend. I have used the Garden Lime by Espoma. Make a solution of the lime with water. Drench the soil with this solution and this will correct your ph problem and provide calcium and magnesium as well. I have rescued plants with this method before.
