newbie here first indoor grow
My largest plant has been flowering well for the past 4 weeks but the top larger "Palm" leaves are drooping (see attached pic) the rest below are fine.
The lighting was "from the side" (not above) as the plant had grown too tall for the closet but I have now moved the light to just above it.
Is lack of light the reason for the droop? Or does it need more water+fertilizer?
Any ideas please?
Thanks
Psy

Dont appear to be able to edit my previous message so more info below:
Using 2 x 125w Envirolites (red spectrum)
Bio Buzz Soil in 3 gallon tub feeding Bio Buzz flowering fetilizer.
Strain is Skunk No.1
Watering every day with distilled water and fertilizer (3-4mg per litre water)
Now on nearly week four of flowering at 12/12
Hope this elicits a response from someone more knowledgeable!
Thanks again

you have a overwatering problem,watering everyday is way to much.how big is your plant?

43 inches just measured. I dipped the soil with my finger earlier (about 4 inches) it felt quite dry so I gave her some more water ooops.
How often should I feed with water/fert for 4 weeks flowering at this height (43")?

if you have another 3 gallon bucket fill it with your soil and lift it,this is the weight or close to it that you want before watering

OK thanks for info. I didn't water them yesterday and am leaving it today also.
No change in plant dropping top leaves just yet but hopefully tomorrow it'll start to look better if it is an over-watering problem?
Can over fertilizing also cause top leaf droop in flowering I wonder?
