Very Droopy Leaves before Dark? Why?

But is my watering schedule alright, if i water 2 times in week. I have these low lumen cfls so i think the soil cant absorb all water if i would water more than now.

And im really sorry if i seem like a total "noobgrower" but this just is my first and hopefully last time something like this occurs. Last time i had a 400w HPS and there wast no problems,
prob. i should returnt to real lightning rather than these matches ( cfl ) . Peace!

Watering more often (if the soil hasn't dried) may just lead to more issues, like fungus, root rot. The reason your foliage is growing slower at the moment is because your plant is focusing on the root system. Which generally goes straight down and fans out, starting in larger pots contribute to this problem. The soil at the top/middle may still be moist, but where the roots are (at the bottom) may be dry because they have used what they can. They should correct themselves in a couple weeks, as long as they aren't over watered.

are your lights clsoe as possible to the plants? personally i dont like CFLs, use a hps.

totally, fuck CFLs

I agree with you, cfl`s are the worst growlights.. But good news, just ordered a 150W hps and it should soon be in my location.

And yes these lights are 3 inch away of the plant.

Go on youtube and watch a bunch of timelapse video of weed growing. I can tell you without you having to watch the videos that they all droop before lights out, its normal.

Agreed. And right before lights on they start to 'pray' standing straight up. MrGhettoGrower gives ghetto advice all over this forum don't listen to a thing he says.
