New Grower My First Grow. Finally. Feedback appreciated!

Fabric pots, don't fear over watering so much they dry out quickly.

Things continue to be up and down with this girl. Currently, down.

I watered her yesterday and I was probably a day too late. I fear the “don’t overwater” messaging that is so prevalent to newbs gave me a bit of a complex about it. Later in the day she was standing up better and her leaves looked pretty good. Then this morning she looks as droopy as she ever has I think.

She’s soooo thick and short. Could defoliating her some help in any way? I’ve mostly just removed dying leaves from her bottom so far

On the plus side, the babies are doing pretty well. I’m sure their Fast Buds genetics are better than the freebie seed the big sister came from. But they’re also very stout.

many ups and downs bud, and many more to come no doubt, onwards and upwards.

I think violet will pull through, i'm thinking these plants are hardy as hell, mistakes just stunt or lower yields not so much kill them.

When i water my fabric pots i put a oil pan under them and let them have water until they pee pee .5"-1" of water in the pan then i let them sit for 20 mins sucking some of it up then i place them in a dry oil pan for 5 mins to let most of the pee pee drip out then back in the tent, watering 4 plants takes me like 1 hour haha but i enjoy the time doing it.i only water these plants when they are light light light and sometimes light weight with droopy leaves then i give them water. i wait for signs i guess rather than a schedule.

Now i am about to screw myself over trying super soils, i heard i have to keep them damp never dry so this next batch should be a harder learning curve for me because i mastered the dry wet cycle and now i'm back in left field trying to learn

Can you remind me what you’re currently growing in?

100% ffof from solo cup to transplant.
My Day 2 grow is a mix of 3 different things in 8 different pots so thats more complicated to explain but there is a picture on my new journal that makes it easier to understand

Aaaaaandddd ... hours later she’s looking a lot better and I see the start of her colas up top for the first time. And I did nothing. LOL, this girl is moody.

Thanks! How do I back off the N when I’m still just in the OF they’ve been in from the start? Have also felt I’m still dealing with N toxicity.

Do you just mean in regard to when adding nutes?
