Wats up everyone, new to growing so im pretty sure i made the mistake of overwatering. I was reading up on some info on droopy plants and iv read about adding hydrogen peroixide just to get more oxygen to the plant. And i read about flushing the plant. Using PeatMoss and Perlite mixture, and the run off water is a dark yellowish color. So maybe a flush might be worth it? And about adding some nutrients havnt put any in the plant yet, its in its 3rd week of veg process

When should i add nutes? and with what?
thx for the advice every1 and sorry for another noob question!:thumbsup:

EEEEWWWWW peat moss!
Peat is a killer... it's got low pH and holds water like a bastard. Yup, you're overwtering... but you'll be seeing pH problems soon.
Check the runoff pH... I'll bet you're i the 5's. Flush with water adjusted to bring the pH in range. On the next repot, use a better soil mix (there's a VERY simple one in the link in my sig).
