My plants are droopy when the lights first come on... I think some just like to droop when they feel like it.

Plants look good, keep doing what you're doing

How often and how much do you water? You can't over water by the amount you use, but by the frequency of watering.

its been since last sunday and i waterd today half a finger in the dirt

and they were dry. the fist few times i waterd after i went too the 5 gallon transplant and they never dryed out .. well they did.. but it took a while

so now im watering with a large V-8 bottle maybe half gallon? i like it becasue i poked holes in the lid and it give's me a good controled water with out a big mess.. iwaterd just enough too get a little run off .

useing FF soil with hydro rocks and perlite for a good air ation or drainage.

Their just ready to go to bed....or you could be underwatering.What's your light schedule?
light are now 16 rather than 18

. a week or two ago i thought maybe my deformed leaves were from too much light and so i gave them a little rest ill stay 16 till i flower. i had the light on them from just about day one right on top of them a few inches.

Hell i might even drop it a couple more hr in a couple weeks till im at 12 and a few more 3000k light.

If your not under watering you should be fine some plants tend to droop closer to lights out from my exp. When lights go back on plants should be looking eroused. I like 18 hrs on never tried 16 I like to give my plants he full 18, during winter I like 24 and vent inside keeps the room nice and toasty. Good luck bro.

This is very common my friend. Think of it this way. Every night before you go to bed, you start to yawn. This is your body telling you that you are getting less oxygen to the brain and need to rest to reboot so to speak. Your plants are just doing the same thing. They get used to the light schedule and 1 to 2 hours before the lights go out they know it and start to droop. Not every strain does this. But a lot of them do. Hope this helps. Good Luck.....

This happens to my plants also, no big deal... Different ones do it on different days, and they are all cloned sisters... No worries...
