The shock of moving from indoors to outdoors may be what is happening.

Could be BM. Odd none of the others are affected. There are three others of this same cross happy as a clam. But, maybe this expression is sensitive? (Baglung Nepalese x Oaxacan Gold)
It was happy yesterday and last night at 10pm, then boom, wilt. Humidity is very high here. Media was moist on top but wondered if it was dry underneath (felt a little light weight) so I hit it with rainwater a few minutes ago and staked it up. Running promix + perlite, molasses, Great White, PBP Grow (15ml/gal). We will see. These are to go to their guerilla patch tomorrow so I hope she perks up.
Here she is:
And staked now.

The problem is that the clone is in an impossibly small pot.

Thanks for the feedback TM.
Maybe? But I wouldn’t guess so. Perspective is skewed due to camera angle. These stretched a lot as the strain/expression wants to grow straight up with no branching whatsoever. Here is the group three days back. The afflicted one is far left. I won’t discount your thoughts entirely though.

Basically a plant needs 1 gallon of soil for every 1 foot of expected growth.
The effect is that there isn't enough K absorption (thin, wooded stems, purple leaf stems). There is no branching out, because the roots can't expand and the plant senses the lack of stability.
Soil isn't hydro. In hydro the roots can expand into the reservoir and grow very fast into water. Soil is slower for root growth, and the roots need space within the soil.

TroutM and TanzM,
Thanks guys. I believe you’re correct. And, added complication perhaps of too much molasses. I eyeballed it when adding and think I may have also created a hypertonic media. The one pictured is most sensitive, but the others started doing similar, just a little, yesterday. A flush with distilled + cal mag straightened everything up fine in 12hr. They’re all going into the patch tomorrow (60ft3 2:2:1 Promix/native soil/perlite), 3/4” rainfall predicted day after so I hope to be ok. I’ll keep that formula in my back pocket. Good one to have.

Thanks again gents,
