Hi,
New here.
Need advice
Plants seem a bit crispy on the tips. But seem to be wilting.

Vivo 4’x2’x5.6’
5gl pots
Fox farm happy frog soil
Seeds were harvested outdoors, using for practice/testing before purchasing. I believe they are photo.
Plants are 15" or so high and about as wide.
They are about 10 weeks in veg.
Im watering 700ml (3 cups) every 2 to 3 days.

Im looking to pick some brains as i have many questions. Im not new to growing however, this indoor thing is new to me.

Thanks for any advice.
If you need more specifics about my grow. Please feel free to ask

Looks like they are very thirsty🙃 but pretty plant otherwise. What’s the temperature in your tent? Welcome to the forum.

There’s a lot of people here way more knowledgeable than me someone will come along maybe with a better answer than mine but to me they look like they need more water. What’s your water routine?

water to run off give the soil about a day to dry. Repeat. Don’t let the pot sit in the run off water, water slowly she should perk back up. Are you feeding her? It looks like she’s starting to flower?

That’s probably too much water. What kind of lights, and how hot is it? Are you checking the soil for water saturation? Just guessing.

Not enough water, For these plants age you should follow a drench to drought routine with at least 20% of the amount you’re putting in to run out the bottom (run off). Test the run off PPMs and PH to check the available nutrients in the soil and the PH. Target PPMs at 1000 and the PH at 6.5 :love_you_gesture:

Saturate saturate saturate. Once shes full pick up the pot feel the weight. Then let it dry out to drooping again, pick up the pot and feel the weight. Now you have muscle memory on when shes full and then when shes dry. Keep a happy middle weight and youll be golden.

Sorry I haven’t gotten back to everyone but the forum is limiting my responses. I watered yesterday before my original post. They have perked a a bit. I think underwatering was the issue.

Thanks everyone for offering the help.

I have another question regarding a timeframe for flowering. As I said earlier, these plants have been in veg for around 10 weeks. What are best practices for determining when to initiate flowering?
