Pineapple Express struggling

Well we’ve started flowering but she is STRUGGLING. I let it grow naturally so I thought it might just be too close to the light so I turned the light down again. Using a knockoff 240w QB LED. I’ve got good water cycles happening, only fed 3/4 strength. Planted in Happy Frog. She just looks sad and stressed. Any thoughts.

Could be light stress as you said. Those drooping top leaves are classic overwatering symptoms.

That’s a big pot for the size of plant. Let it dry a bit more between waterings maybe?

looks overwatered to me, but apart from that I don't see any problem.

She is over watered. I wouldn't dim the light.

Thanks everyone. I’ll turn the light back up and let her dry out.

Most welcome. Lifting the pot is the best way to see if she needs water. It she needs water she will be noticeably light. Letting her get fairly dry before watering again is good as it allows oxygen into the roots. For me the biggest learning curve was learning when to water. Good luck

Definitely trying to get Auto growing down. I had a successful Photo grow and I guess my mindset was that she’s flowering so she is drinking more. Just need to be patient and quit over thinking it!!!

ph? Do you? Could be a problem if not, or if for a number of reasons. Looks like one has gotten low ph waterings, or overwatered but lm wondering if thats really a thing. Dwc is overwatered and never looks overwatered, lol. As long as you have enough o2 in medium, the amount or frequency of watering should not matter. Imo only! Roots grow best with enough o2. Drowned roots look sick and stringy not fat and robust.

I’m afraid i might have fried them both. With the tall Pineapple Express, I think it was multiple issues. With the G14, I’m pretty sure I started feeding WAY too early. I saw the yellow bottom leaves and automatically thought it needed food. Let me know yalls thoughts. I have not ph’d the water. It’s just tap water, same I’ve used with my last photo grow. This might be my Achilles heal but it is what it is. Thanks!

id just let it play out fuck it
