Wish I knew how to fix this

All my plants look like dick. Still can't really tell if I'm over watering or under water or wtf is going on. I water when I stick my finger in the and the soil is dry. I also check moisture through the drainage holes. However when I do water, I never use so much that I get run off so I don't understand how this could be overwatering, which leads me to believe it's underwatering. Any suggestions?

Looks like over-watering imo. When you check for moistness in the medium make sure you go 1"-2" down, surface may dry quicker depending on medium and lights/heat but not necessarily below the surface. Your best bet until you get when to water is to get yourself a cheap soil moisture meter, you stick them into the soil down a few inches where the roots are and don't water until they need it. You can pick those up on e-bay for like $5 and a lot of garden centres for $10 or less. When you do water, pour in steps so the soil can suck in the water/feed before you water some more, water until you see some run-off. Then leave them alone until the soil dries. You can over time tell by the weight of the pots too but if you're unsure get yourself one of those moisture meters...
 
I'll guess under watered. It is hard to over water a plant that has good drainage. Otherwise agree 100% with GroErr on water methodology you should use going forward.
 
She looks like she needs a drink. Thats how my ladies in my Aero bucket cloner use to look when I forgot to plug the pump back in for a couple of hours and they got no water. Your soil looks dry imo too.
 
Bro that looks like a fucking horrendous transplant. What happened? did you rip it out and shove it in the new pot with a she'll be right attitude?
All you can do now is stop feeding /watering, raise light and hope for the best.
 
they were transplanted a month ago and handled the transplant fine, but yeah i guess ill water till i see run off and go from there..
 
stop feeding huh? ive fed once with no problems. stop watering huh? well i gave them a nice watering as other members suggested and theyre already perking back up. thanks to those who gave real advice instead of talking shit without knowing what they're talking about!
