Why are my leaves drooping?

Im no expert by any means... it seems like a pretty big pot, did you transfer her or plant her from seed in that pot? I planted a seed in a ten gallon pot and she went into shock because the space was too big later someone told me that I should transfer her from a smaller pot to the larger for those reasons. Also in the beginning I don’t really schedule water/feeding I just make sure she is constantly moist until about the second week when she has at least two full adult leaves. Also I think it would be best to change that medium... soil with perlite or coco soil or a mixture of both. The soil you have looks like it would be perfect for orchids. I think it’s best you re plant it in something smaller with right soil than transfer it back to the bigger pot also with the right soil.
Hope that helps a bit. Good luck they’re resilient just a little TLC and she should bounce back.

Between the size of the pot and the soil you have issues there.

Why so much bark in there?

I have to believe that was dug up from a flower bed. To many weeds and grass growing for it to not be

A new grower who just gave it a shot. It happens. Unfortunately that's an auto flower so its gonna be stunted a bit. Oh well. Live and learn.

Damn you guys are rough.LOL. Looks like my original first almost real mix. He has some goodies you don't. Ha ha. But the soil is too dense, ph is off and the plants are messing with uptake via competition Pull the weeds after some more growth of plant. Possible root damage if done now. Pull the ones away from it now. Ease up on the water. The soil is holding water below the surface in the root area. Slowly drowning. Lighten that mix. A transplant can be done. Bare root is suggested. Just be gentle, clean and room temp water. Preferrably tap water, chlorine, to kill the fungus you surely have. Not going to grow well from my point of view.

I planted multiple seeds at one time back off. And I plan on training it.

Seed in pot no transfer.
Believe it or not the soil is very light and fluffy not dense at all.

Bet a fatty the root ball is soaked. Any takers? Accepting all raises within legality. LMAO.

I been here man. Started in a shed with incandescents and paint buckets full of MG and yard waste. Put your finger in there a few inches from the stem and roots. Bet you get an unwanted stinky finger with slimy filth.
