Root rot? Over water? Under water?

This big ol lady has been droopy and depressed lately. It looks like a water issue to me. Maybe. I haven’t watered her for a couple of days thinking maybe a dry back would help. But she still looks like this. Anyone with a more experienced eye that could drop an opinion? TIA

It is late September and leaves start to fade, Are your healthy leaves hanging limp? if so water and saturate her, giver all she can handle then let her dry and see how she goes. I'm an indoor grower but my plants are going through almost 2 gallon /a day each @ 6 weeks in flower When they are hungry they suck up a lot of water
 
+1 what Pipecarver said. I wouldnt dump on it all at once though, give it a good few seconds, then wait like 10-15 min, and repeat. Itll help the water soak in better and not flood it out. Outdoor plants can drink just unreasonable amounts of water this time of year
 
I’d say that plant is going to drop all those droopy leaves.the rest of the plant looks like it has high turgor .I’d say she’s either finishing or there isn’t adequate nutrients in the soil for her..

What is high tugor? What does that mean?
This plant is pretty large. I used organic nutrients during veg. I use “Down to earth” brand. This year I used “Bio Fish 7-7-2”. I gave her a little extra because she is so big. I also gave her some bat guano during early flower/stretch. It’s kind of a guessing game as to how much to give because she is directly in the ground. I usually don’t give any nutrients during late flower. Just water. To me it looks like she has weeks to go. Do you think it is a nutrient issue? Or lack of nutrient issue?

Feed me, I'm going to assume you are around 6 weeks in flower and for me indoors I'm feeding heavy Potassium now. My mix for week 7indoors is 2 ml Calmag/2 mil micro/ 8 ml/bloom/ 1/4tsp KoolBloom. Both bloom nutes are heavy in Potassium. I'll start tapering off after week 8. They feed on this mix 24/7 in Autopots, no water only until the last 3 days.
 
Basically it’s when a plant loses its turgor there isn’t enough water pressure in its cells and it wilts.something like that..i don’t see the tops wilting the same as the leaves.when I’ve had leaves drooping so will the tops..if you water it they will stand back up .if they don’t I’d say she is drawing up the nutrients she needs and therefor the leaves will start dropping..
