Nope, lol. One of my indica doms is doing this now. I know it is not rootbound though. It seems to be flowering just fine. I give it the same as all the other plants. I think it is just a little depressed lol. Idk bro.

I have waited a week or so and nothing in proved watered more frequently and no improvement. I'm not sure if it's a watering issue.

I dont think it's a watering issue. Mine is lightweight droopy too and I know I dont over or underwater. Maybe some pests in the soil? Who knows.

not root bound, I say either too much water or not enough.
let it dry for a day or two, mean while spray with aloe.
then water with aloe. if ur doing the whole bottle thing then give it a nice little dose of cal mag.

I gave it cal-mag this last feeding and no difference. What does the aloe do?

aloe provides trace elements and some silica. but most of all it has enzymes. all these combine make aloe a miracle plant, especially for cannabis.
also great for soil health
check here for more info on aloe and or ROLS

"-Aloe juice - simply crush the leaves and collect the juice. Aloe foliar @ 2 tbls per gallon water once every 3 days. Unprocessed Aloe must use within 20 minutes due to decomposition. Supplement with worm castings and casting teas. Great for rooting clones. Great for PM resistance along with neem, kelp and alfalfa. Excellent in rooting clones just add 2 oz per gallon water. 2 tbls per gallon foliar spray. Apply 1-3 times a week. Soil drench and foliar are identical."
The problem is the following; you have exceeded the plants required nutrient dosage/frequency; as such, the medium
has too much salt in the root zone, and because this level of sodium is more than that which is in the plant it can
no longer achieve uptake efficiently, feeding it is not what you want to do. Instead, flush your medium with water
to remove the salt and she will perk right up. True story, I've seen this video before. -

I would agree bit I have not fed anything but water to this girl as she was in coco Loco and already had nutrients in it. I don't think it had enough to do so.The problem is the following; you have exceeded the plants required nutrient dosage/frequency; as such, the medium

are the leaves actually droopy? meaning are they limp? Reason i'm asking is I've seen MANY very healthy plants that have the leaves like that, may be nothing wrong at all. Impossible to tell without being there, but I don't think it's salt buildup. Some strains grow like that, especially indicas.
To be perfectly honest with you, to me, doesn't look like a problem unless the leaves are limp.

what are the temps there? High temps can do that. You'd know more than us, if the plant never had any characteristics like that, than you may have problems, but it doesn't look like a serious issue.

I went out today and the tops seemed a little more perky then normal Temps are 50-85 and I'd if it's limp I'm not sure lol

well, pick the leaves up, if they resist you, they aren't limp, if they are flaccid and soft (go ahead, laugh) then you have problems.

I dont think the plant looks that bad really, can you post a pic of it next to another of yours so that we can see one that is in normal health?

I'll have to check it out. And see I'll see if I can get it next to another of my plants

Ive should of asked what medium are you growing before i gave my first awnser.
If your using coco and assuming your using RO water, then thats a recipe for disaster, which is what i think is happenig to your plant.
You need to add nutrient in your water. There is not enough nutrient in your coco, unless its a soil base soil with coco.
Stick to a feeding nutrient.
May i suggest you try ROLs organics next run, bypass bottle nutes, sustain the garden and grow the best herb you have ever tried.

I would let it dry out like others have said,it does not look like cal mag problem,how often do you water ,feed?Also how hot does the sidewalk get could be frying the roots on hot concrete.
