Droopy in am... perky as hell in PM?

[razzapiggy]

Strange little thing I have going on here, I was thinking maybe I am over watering a bit, but maybe these ladies are just effin weird!

I am vegging right now, 18 hours on... the lights go off at 11AM and come back on at 5PM. Now when I go into work late, sometimes I peek in there just before the lights go off and the plants look sad... droopy and a tad weak.

Cue me thinking... what the hell did I do wrong? I'm doing things the same way I always have... humm..hmm....derrr...duhh...

Enter 5-6PM... I go in the room and the same plants are absolutely beautiful reaching for the lights looking strong as strong can be with very little signs of droop at all. What is going on? They don't receive water in the time I'm gone so I am a bit confused here.

possibly a heat issue :smokin:

[mjdragon]

Yes i agree, do you have a thermometer and humidity guage in there?

[razzapiggy]

Not a heat issue, very rarely even touches 85 in there as of right now. I am thinking it's just natural that the plants droop a tad towards the end of their light cycle, and then perk right back up within an hour of lights on. I set my lights on late this cycle, so it's really the first time that I pop in there prior to leaving for work when the lights are just about to go off so maybe someone else could comment?

I find my plants do that as well. If anything I'd say my temps are too cool. Somtimes I see it at below 75. with the lights on. The AC is pretty powerful and when its not too hot its keeps my Box too cold. But if I turn it off it will hit 80 to 85. Or higher.

:stoned: plus I luv AC

Perhaps were too cool... :cool:

i have had a similar thing
with me it had to do with watering and temps

[highallthetime]

A picture would help to give u an valid opinion ;)

For me it could be watering but I'm using Coco so I doubt that it can get too wet with Coco. i'm guessing its the Temps or the condition of my small Cab.

ither way my plants still grow. and I get decent results. I have a bad habit of over thinking the grow... Getting all anal on little things.

Yeah, don't really think it's a big deal. It's about 78 in there right now and they are droopy as hell as usual, I'm sure they will be fine later on though. Sorry no pics right now, I can't find the damn charger to the camera and I will be buying one within a day or so if I don't find it asap.

[kdspecial]

Yeah I never noticed my plants doing that during flowering Only during Veg. I guess cuz the Buds hold up the leaves.

Maybe its just the plants get tired. A long day of light they start winding down. Preparing for the dark which they know is comming.

I'm actully surprised that an "Expert Grower" doesn't have a somwhat definitive answer? You know the gurus of the site....

ie... Stinky... Shes my main GAL!!!!

the numero Uno in my book...

I find that even with an expert grower plants do the same thing. jus like when the lights are off they rest and droop a lil. i think u should be ok as long as the problems it could be have been checked and there is no possibility of them
