I have three females growing and just noticed today that they are drooping. One inparticular. From what I have read it looks like lack of oxygen in the water. The leaves are turning yellow around the bottom of the plant. But they have been flowering for about the last 3 or 4 weeks. I should be harvesting on Dec 18 . I noticed the airstone wasn't blowing out hardly any air. So I cleaned it with CLR and it works great now. I am growing hydroponically. I added a pic to show what the setup looks like. I just am really worried that if one dies they all will. The other 2 look pretty healthy. Does this sound like lack of oxygen in the water?? Everything I have read kinda points to that. :confused::cry:

They look kinda healthy. I havent had any problems other than this. Please help me out. This is for family that has cancer. I can't afford to lose them. I removed all the yellow leaves. Any response will be met with +REP. :bigjoint:

Thank you.

Next time just buy a air stone there 2 bucks. Who knows what clr can do to your plants if not properly cleaned. How long has it been drooping? is it close to sleeping time? What kind of lights are u using? what are you feeding them aprox ppm?

I cleaned the air stone with peroxide. And I am using a 400 watt HPS. 12/12. It they were 6 hrs in to their 12/12. So it wasnt sleepy time yet. I have been feeding them advanced nutes along with Bud Candy. PPM was 1300. And the Ph is 5.5 to 6.0. So everything is on track but the airstone. So I am assuming that it was lack of oxygen. Thanks for the help, I gave you +Rep.:clap:

Yep your on the right track, make sure your got lots of bubbles in your rez not sure if you are using just one airstone or not but it should be very bubbly in there. Plants love those airstones so if you can get 2-3 in there will be even better. I use the 3-4 inch airstones.
