Should I transplant imediately? What nute is good for droopy leaves? Hardon, Zandor, anyone that knows anything about this please help.

2. no you should not transplant immediately....if the problem is not root binding, then you just create a bigger problem.
3. droopy leaves can be an early sign of too much water.
Need more data. age, lights, temps and what kind of container are they in allowing you to see the roots.
More data needed and pics always help

One is about 11 inches tall, and the other is a little shorter. THey are in black containers. They have a fan on them, temp is probably no higher then 80 degrees. Very low humidity, could that be a factor? Using a 400 watt MH.
Thanks for the help

Hello, fox farm is a great fertilizer it does lack Calcium and Magnesium. A good espson salt should do the trick. The Grow Big is a good one for veg but i would suggest to add a seaweed extract. Make sure your not using miracle grow soil though if you are going to add your own nutrients. Try fox farm potting soil too works great mixed with coco and worm castings. O and the drooping of the leaves can be from temp, lack of water, too much water or your light is too close. As far as repotting i wouldn't change too soon, you can squeeze your containers and if they are really tight, time to transplant.

If you go to the FAQ you can read properly how to transplant...but I dont think that is the point until you tell the age and the size container its in.
How many quarts or how wide is the top and how deep is the container?
Lanky plants will also wilt a bit naturally as they bask in the sunlight. They usually will perkup at sundown. Some are just the opposite.
Make sure the wilting isnt just a light cycle type of response.
Anyhow, bat guano is my veg nute of choice. Get a nice bag of 5-1-1 or 11-7-1...
Nitro defieciency will reveal itself in yellowing of foilage, not dropping of leaves

Thanks Harddon. They're about 25 days old. The pot is about 8 inches diameter, and about 1 foot tall. Humidity is around 10% here.
