The general rule is never cut off living leaves. Drooping is a pretty generic symptom. A few things that might help to know are: age of plant, leaf color, container size, hydro or soil...

Orry I am using soil the plant is almost a foot and half and the leaves are med green the new leaves that are comming out are a light green. She Is almost 6 weeks from seed. I am using a 5 gallon plant pot. The elaves don't feel dry or anything they are just drooping on the small branches. I was wondering if the flowering parts were taking stuff away from the leaves or some thing I have old pics of the plant on my page if you would like to see them

I'm still fairly new myself so I'll just run thru a few stupid newbie tricks I've done that may cause something like that. Over water of course. Leaves get pale and turn yellow. At 5 weeks have you fed them at all? Or if you've been feeding them at a high strength you may have salts built up and need to flush out the soil. I've done both. I can also tell you from personal blunder that root bind from needing to transplant to a larger pot looks like that. Finally, how's the PH of your water you're using? My tap was so alkalie it was death to plant life...

this is a simple diagnosis. my plants droop like that in flowering every couple days when they're thirsty. when was the last time you watered? how much do you water your plants when you do water? if you water every day your plant is overwatered, if you haven't watered in 3-4 days, give her a fucking drink already....

your plants are going to drink a lot more water in flowering. in veg i find myself watering every 4-5 days, in flower every 2.
