it sounds like your light is too close. after having intense light for such a long period of time somtimes plants will get exausted and fall. how many inches is your light away?

a picture is worth a thousand words. Do you have on?

 

[vanbuilder2]

Do not use nutes untilatleast 3 weeks maybe over a month. N foil, not to much water/ Need a pic

I would say to much water. Let the soil dry out. Did you are giving them nutes? Wait until you go to flowering if so. They look okay for now. I just think they are over watered by the pics.

 

[vanbuilder2]

Let the soil dry out. Maybe flush first. If it was mine and I could see it I would make that call. But anyway, let the soil dry out a couple of days and if everything is cool go to 12/12. I think it is ready. Just my opinion. That is what I would do

I am using DWC

 

[vanbuilder2]

Don't water for a bit

 

[notpatient]

mad props for the assistance-
I really do think I had the light to close to the ladies I have it a few ft' away and within hrs some of the curling has left , I'm not sure if stopping the bubblers would be a good time simply because the roots have been swimming for a while now , I'm tryin it on 1 waterfarm, just put it in an empty bucket to see if theres any change will let ya know thought

join a gym anyway. for you plants they look decent with a little yellow, but it doesn't sound like a heat issue. If it were heat then your leaves would seem to raise up like they are trying to touch the light. This happens because the moisture inside the leaves are heated up and they rise, eventually the water would evaporate and your plants would catch fire, literally.

It looks like it lacks nutrients like Nitrogen perhaps? It could also be infected. Do you have bugs or dirty air? Looks like a basement, probably not good considering a basement is typically moist and a haven for bacteria. Try more ventilation.

I say, start it on an increase level of Nitrogen and improve your environment. Also, add some mylar to the walls man, wtf?

Backing the light off will probably fix it. Start easing the light off and you should see the plants perk up as you get further away. Takes 12-24 hours after you ease off, and you may still have one wilting a bit, but you should see definite improvement.

Have you grown this strain before? Some just wilt more than others as the day progresses, but I bet backing off will fix it.

Yea you were just pushing them too hard with the light, 1kw lights are serious business. Do you have a vented hood or cooltube? If you do either you can probably push them further again without overheating them. Where do you have your thermometer? Are you reading temps on the wall or at the tops of the plants at the hottest spot?
Drooping at night is normal though, for that other guy who said something about it. And if you give them sleep they can be pushed harder during lights on than if you are running them 24/7.
