I gave this nitrogen watering Saturday night and it starting drooping and the bottom leaves turned yellow ? Can I fix this problem?

    Looks underwater is the pot heavy and soil wet?

    Not sure what medium you’re growing in, but it looks more overwatered/root-stressed than nitrogen deficient. The dark green, slightly clawed upper leaves may indicate excess nitrogen though.

    Let the pot dry back, stop the extra nitrogen, ensure good drainage, and check feed pH and runoff EC before the next watering.

    The yellow lower leaves may not recover, but watch the new growth.

    That’s what I did I watered her really good and let it run out the bottom cuz I think I’ve been over doing it on everything so we’ll see how this works thank guys

    Plant ain’t got no turgor!
    She needs a drink. Your yellowing on the bottom is from the heavy dry back. The plant will cut off its oldest growth to sustain its new growth. Hence why you are getting yellowing on the bottom from your oldest leafs.

    As others had mentioned, she just looks thirsty.

    Nitrogen toxicity typically manifest with super dark leaves and just the tip curling down like eagle talons – hence the claw name. What you’re seeing is an entire leaf droop, so address the hydration issue and check your runoff for excess salts
