Bubblegum auto on day 30 now.
Just started to get pre flowers..

Soil was dry so gave her 1,5 l with water.
Now 30 minutes later the top leaves are drooping..
Is this over or under watering?

PPM was 1800.. so no more feeding and only ph water next days.

Soil with 30% perlite
8 L pot
Ph around 7
Temp is around 25-27
Humidity is around 50%

Please help!

Looks like overwatering but your in a fabric pot so dont know, your VPD could be off.
@Mañ'O'Green might be able to help you

Okey.
First time having this problem.
Before i only gave 1 l water, this was the first time i gave her 1,5 L, so maybe that was wrong?
 
If the drooping is just for a while, not permanent, I wouldn't be concerned, particularly since it's reliably associated with watering. I presume what you are seeing is normal, expected - thirsty plant tissues sucking-up water/feed and the leaves becoming heavy.

The main issue is the soil saturation, water flow, aeration/air content/density, etc., and those variables depend mostly on your soil/perlite mix. Even with 30% perlite, the bags might possibly hold too much water (but that seems unlikely). If your mix actually retains too much water, others can better advise you, but I presume you will have to monitor and restrict your watering/feeding, won't be able to do drain-to-waste, etc.

Dont do wet / dry cycles. Keep the pots evenly hydrated. 1800 ppm is too high if youre using chem fertilizers even for photoperiod plants its on the high side.

Need more info

Whether you are watering too much is not your main concern. Rather the issue is the soil saturation, water flow, aeration/air content/density, etc., and those variables depend mostly on your soil/perlite mix. Even with 30% perlite, the bags might possibly hold too much water (but that seems unlikely).

Thanks for good info!
I have not have drooping leaves problem this entire grow, so i hope i do everything correct and my problem is that the plant was so thirsty that it sucked so much water it made the leaves heavy..

Medium: local «flower soil» with 30% perlite.

Feed: Advanced nutrients jungle juice. Micro, grow and bloom.
2 ml/l with micro
4 ml/l with grow
2 ml/l with bloom

Water source: Tap water ph adjusted to 6,5

Ph in root zone: around 7

Light: 50W Led with full spectrum (not so strong but works well i think?)

Strain: Bubblebum auto - 30 days

Climate: Indoor in grow tent with 2 fans. 25-27 temp and 50% humidity
