Do raise your light...an inch IS pushing it imo. Plants WILL also rest their leaves at night so if it just seems to happen about the same time every evening and they bounce right back and look good in the morning then they are probably just taking a litte rest.

THAT said....be nice to know for sure thats what it is and not a ph or other issue......be wise to get yourself some good growing supplies.
Weedhound Reviewed by Weedhound on . My plant is avoiding the light? Hello, and thank you for this great forum. I have a 2 1/2 week-old seedling, everyday my plant looks healthy and it's leavs are either flat or forming a slight 'Y'. But after about twelve or thirteen hours of light the top leaves start to point towards the soil! They are not soft and droopy, in fact once they get this way it takes quite the effort for it to return to normal, and at this point they seem to be stuck this way unless I moisten the leaves with some water. I have it under a 27/100 Rating: 5
