Earthboxes the water is under the soil and is wicked up so don’t think can be over/under watered but not positive! Need to add a cover over the opening by stem in case it is under cuz of not catching the evaporating water but reservoir is ful! It’s weird but hasn’t been taking water up near the rate I expected! I’m mad confused so guess gotta do lil more investigating once I get home!Obviously not underwatered. Right? Underwatered flagging typically involves loss of turgidity of the petiole as well as the leaves (leaf stems droop)
Overwatering is possible.
Anytime I see this the 1st question I ask is; at what point of the light cycle is the photo taken. Some plants have a lower DLI than others. They get their fill of light and take a nap. I had 5 plants in a tent and every day a couple hours b4 lights out she would flag like she was overwatered. Took me forever to figure out. I was watering once every 48 hours in Coco. She still drooped b4 lights out. Did not make sense.
Until it did. Only other thing I see is perhaps some clawing that may or not be typical of hitting DLI or overwatering. Hope this gives you something.
Oh it’s something I’m thinking it’s the damn springtails I just noticed my bag of oly mountain fish compost was infested with! Do they attack plant roots cuz I put my moisture meter in earthbox and pegged off scale and plant hasn’t seemed to be drinking near what I’d expect for 36 days! That’s only thing I can come up with cuz it went downhill super fast!It could be several different things.. Or it could be nothing at all. I would just give it a day or two and see if it recovers. I've had plants "rest" like that for a day or so then perk back up.
