Say your soil is dry on the top, how long can it stay dry before your plants start getting damaged from being under watered?
Drooping is just caused from lack of water in the plant to create hydraulic negative pressure as the light makes the plant circulate the water to the top, for it to respire through the leaves. Not necessarily that the roots are damaged yet. Just that there is no water to sustain pressure.As long as your using true soil and not soiless, a healthy plant can sustain drought for quite some time IF its healthy, the same goes for cuttings.
I feel root damage has already began once the leaves sag to the stem.
You'll probably need to skip a few days of watering after she droops to actually kill it, probably take much less to kill it in coco.
