Hey everyone first time grower here in need of some help, my plants look pretty droopy after i watered them today. I also changed the resevoir today and cleaned it out no chemicals were used. PH is somewhere from 5.5-6.5 the type of nutrients im using are just basic a and b which i bought from my hydro store. Im just giving light dooses right now which is 3ml per L which on the bottle it says 5ml but my plants are just babys right now. I do have temp issues but i cant get around them without security issues. If anyone can help either with lowering my temps or helping my plants that would be great. Also this grow is in my closet which is why the temps are so high. Thanks

Do you guys think i over watered but i dont think you really can with hydro, im so confused as why my plants are not doing as well as they should, i know temps are a little high but i try and reduce them by opening the closet door, would another fan in the closet lower temps?

Do you have a rez or are you hand watering? How many gallons is your rez? I've been doing ebb and flow for 10+ years and i flood my tables at that stage every 12 hours for 15 minute intervals with 600 ppm and 5.5 PH and let it rize to 6 over time before I fix it. If you're using non organic nutes, I would go 1/4 strength and adjust from there by how your plants respond.

See the edges how they are warped? Generally that happens when they have too much water/lack.

The edges mutate in order to shed excess water.

I do have a resivour and its 60L but i only put in 40L, So do you think i should take it easy on the nutrients? On the bottle it says to do 5ml per L and i did 3ml per L this time. Just thought i might harm them if they are getting to many nutrients.
When the edges of the leaves curl up that means there is to much water, I think i might have overwatered them, Im going to wait a couple days see if they dry out and if it gets worse i will put more pics up but if it gets better thanks.

They look a ton better today thanks for your input. Must have been overwatering
