Female slowly dying!!! Curling up and taking her last breaths....(PICS)

[elway07]

Hey all,
Here is a pic of one of my ladies... She started this yesterday but has gotten progressively worse. The pic of the youngster is another plant showing same symptoms....
I'M in soil using cfl's I had an HPS on during daylight to add lumens but have since shut it off today worrying it may that...??
I didn't give nutes last water but did today in case it was a nute issue. MY PH meters are proving unreliable but not showing anything to low 6.5-7.0 ]
ANY AND ALL help will be very appreciated!
Thanks guys...
Oh and I saw hairs for the first time today on one of my other girls... That means I think I may have two males...out of 5... Not too bad

You mean the drooping leaves?

It doesn't look THAT bad.

Just looks like maybe some overwatering. Only water when the soil is dry, and don't water so much that the soil is mucky.

I'm guessing the real problem is the HPS you added.

Are you in flowering or vegging? Sorry if I missed that part.

If you're in vegging, the HPS is not a good idea to use. It is not the correct light spec. for vegging.

But if you're flowering, get that HSP back in there. Cannabis love HPS for flowering as they are the closest to sunlight in light specs.

If you're in flowering and you added the Hps, and leaves started sagging, all it is, is the plant going through some light stress, getting used to the change. It is very common, so don't fret.

Your plant will get over the slight shock in a few days, but if youre flowering, get the HPS back in there, if not, keep the CFL's until you're done vegging, then add the HPS for flowering.

Thanks...
I actually don't water but every third day or so when the soil is dry... My plants are real dark green and very perky, so compared to the rest of em... yes this curling up of the leaves and yellowing is bad... I have used the HPS throughout the whole cycle just a 200 W and haven't had any difficulty as I thought they were lowryders at first... as I soon discovered they were not I have changed the light cycle to 18/6 and already showing signs of sex in a couple days of that light change cycle.... I will be putting them to 12/12 next week, so in a sense I am starting to kinda flower them...
I have turned the HPS off for now to see if anything gets better...
thanks and keep em coming I could use all the comments as possible

The leaves are curling and yellowing? I didn't catch that in the pics.

Are you feeding them? If so, what N-P-K and how often/much.

If you haven't fed them anything yet, or very little, underfeeding could be the issue too, but if you have given them too much food, overfeeding is the problem.

just looks like a n def,what kinda nutes did you feed today and how much

[mscaboo]

what size container is that plant in,how big is it?

[mscaboo]

i mean how big is the plant?

[elway07]

it was an N def.. I guess they got used to the feeding schedule, and I forgot to feed the 3 days ago, so I fed em today when I watered and they are already unwilting and the green is slowing coming back.....
they are not rootbound as I just repotted them to the final pot before flowering a week ago....
Thanks guys.. I hope this fixes it, but if not... I will be back...
LOL
