Looks like you are under watering your plants. Mabe you over fed or packed soil too tight roots could be not getting oxygen or you need to bump up heat. Is your soil drying fast or slow do you check run off ph? I perfer tap water as mine is 7.3 or so and with nutes and the soil staying 6.3 to 6.7 I never have issues other than a over feed every so often.

If you look at the perky stems and droopy leaves this is more a sign of overwatering, and may be part of the issue, but as stated they can be on either end of the spectrum and anywhere between and will start to look like that no matter what. If the stems drooped along with the leaves id be with you. I do not pack my soil either, k even wet it to where k want it before it goes in so I can get it as airy and fluffy as I can so till the plants are established and the only thing that settles the soil is the water upon needing it

I would definitely check ph the advanced nutes run hot like a mother fucker. Ph perfect my ass definitely would not use them again other than rhino skin.

Yeah I'm kinda thinking the same thing about the ph thing. I understand it's the chelation that is supposedly makeng the nutrients available through a broader spectrum and it isn't going to adjust your ph for you, rather broaden the spectrum that they are available to the plant hence me not trying to adjust it

Hey Doc Auto, I am having the exact same issue with my 3 bears.
under 350 actual watt LED
Airpot with mephistos supersoil, with an occasional drink of molasses and tea. It seems to grow at the same rate as other autos but the drooping leaves boogle me too. I run a perfect environment as far as temp/RH/air exchange. Just wonder if you found what the problem was?

Thought I was banned, didn't know I could still reply. From what I found it was a cal/mag deficiency. I don't know, I'm new to autos and led's but from what I have read and found is that og's are kinda cal/mag whores and I am running reverse osmosis anyways so I really needed cal mag which I wasn't adding at all in the beginning. My theory is that when a plant is lacking something or deficient it is kinda "tired" all the time, just like you or I, I wasn't willing to accept the underwatered, overwatered responses I was getting, and that got me banned, for rules violation. My suggestion would be add cal mag at the suggested rate and watch your plant after that. Hope this helps, but once again I am no expert and this is just my theory and in no way is this guaranteed.

Check out my post over in the sick plants infirmiry and see why I got banned as well folks, way to keep any helpful info out of people's grasp. Cal/mag was what was needed in my case, could be yours too.
