Droopy Leaves

[arod]

I have noticed that lately my plants leave seem to droop once the light turns out. Right now it is on an 18/6 light schedule, is this common?:rasta:

They're sleeping. At night they actually seem to grow more, as if, all day they were working, converting light and nutrients into fantastic green. Many plants close their blooms at night (ex. morning glories).

Very normal, yes.

[dryst]

if they stay dropping it could be caused by over watering

He did just say it was when the lights were turned out.

I think your nitrogen level is to low that also can cause leaves to fall

If its only when the lights are out i wouldnt worry about it.

Drooping leaves can be a sign of over watering, under watering, and heat, although more often than not the leaves will point up in the case of heat stress.

My plants at the mo are on an 18/6 and i have now proved to myself that plants grow quicker on 18/6 than 24/0.

My plants also droop in the dark period, not alot, but a little, but as soon as the lights come on in the morning they're back to they're normal happy weedy selves.
