Autoflower drooping

Hey guys ive got 2 fastbuds autos growing forb runtz and gorilla cookies. Day 18 Humidity 60% temps 23-24. Same feeding schedule aswell for both but the gorilla cookies seems abit droopy. I thought it was overwatering but now the cocos dried out no water in 2 days its still drooping. Its perked up for abit but seems to go back to drooping.

my feed ph is around 6.2.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

I'm no coco expert, at all, but you don't want coco to dry out.

to treat overwatering you need the medium to dry out but it doesn't seem to have treated the droopiness which is why im here

Ok

Have a read of this, it's all about the strain you are having issues with https://2fast4buds.com/news/gorilla-cookies-auto-cannabis-strain-week-by-week-guide-fastbuds

Coco can, and likes to be close to saturated at all times. Even fully saturated Coco holds enough oxygen in the root zone. That looks barren tbh.

This is a Coco/compost mix (a bit different) and this is about as much as I've let it dry out. Day 10 NYC diesel auto. I get issues like that if I don't water properly.

Coco will get hydrophobic too if you don't keep the moisture even, not to mention pH swings when there's too pronounced a wet-dry cycle.

Lowish temps under led and dry medium would be slowing the metabolism to a crawl. I'd give it a good water with a rounded base feed to runoff at an ec of 0.75 and try get the temps up to at least 27c under LED. I always get the best posture out of my plants under LED at around 27-31c and 50-60% humidity.

Oh wow ive been leaving them around 23-25 never more than 25 im using an se3000 300w at 70% 80cm above canopy. It gets pretty hot so i use the ac in my room to cool it down. Ill keep it at 26-27 for now. Do you keep it that high into veg? Or do u lower in veg?

Nice light. I'm looking at that or a viparspectra ks3000.

I generally keep around 28-32 in veg and around 50-70% humidity. Always get good posture in that range. In flower I'll try and sit around 27c if I can as we have a lot of flat mites (false spider mites) around here that love hot dry weather. I don't normally have issues with droop in flower though, it's always veg for me and I fixed it by upping the temps a bit in my case, and keeping the medium moist.

Here's the last four around day 23-26 and roughly 30c/65%.

Thats about as dry as the medium ever gets up top.

What's your light intensity as well? If I get issues with posture early on I find dialing the lights back a few hours always had them standing up the next morning for some reason.

Do some research on how to grow in coco.

Should be an easy fix. Looks like they need water and that your coco is drying out too much. Best regards and let us know how this sorts out.

coco doesnt get hydrophobic, not like peat

78f to 82f is the "optimal" temp, but not needed to be there as I've grown indoors as hot as high 90s and low 60s during season changes. Just try 75-85 for a good range. Also, it's really important that you understand coco and soil are not the same. That same size soil could be wet for 4-5 days after 1 soak. The same plant could be dry in coco. Never let it dry out. It'll build salts and screw the ph causing lockouts. You can feed coco multiple times a day it dries out good, so don't be afraid.

heres the update i fed from a small 150ml bottle 3 times a day put the temps to 27-29 and shes looking healthy again.

Personally, I would completely saturate the medium to run off with a light nute solution........but that's just me.
Good luck.
