If your plant is drooping. And you water it. 20 min later it perks up.
does this mean 100% that it isn't over watered.

not exactly ... over-watering produces almost the same appearance as under-watering ... it droops, loses vigor, leaves yellow ... it's a little tricky ... ( I have over-watered for years ! ) ... :D stick your finger into the soil a couple inches, and feel the moisture, then lift the pot, the weight difference is very different between wet and dry pots ... :smokin:
dont forget about stress from heat, my plant looks droopy sometimes from too much heat, after i put it in a shaded place it perks back to normal.
yes my friend has over watering problems. I'm wondering: if the plant is droopy, I water and it perks up. Does that mean that it was for sure needing water.Quote:

Ok if ur plant is underwatered it will jump back to life when u hit it with water, if its overwatered it will continue to droop and get worse. It could be heat aswell. The heat ussually contibutes to the underwatering. But u will also see signs of heat stess. ex. the leaf tips will brown closest to light. unless ur grow room just gets to hot stay under 90f if possible best results under 80f.
My room is kept between 83-76 so i guess i'm ok
