Leaves stuck pointing straight up

It either means they are happy or they need magnesium. I can't tell from the picture but mine do the same thing when they are happy and I haven't seen them pray for mag since it's in the nutes at usually an acceptable rate. My temps are 75 at canopy and 70 below, humidity is 50% or below. So healthy plants will do that. Ever see the healthiest plants outdoor that produce 10 lbs? They look like they are praying as well.

so you're sayin it's like a rain dance LOL
No, if the plant could explain it would say:

No damn it, I can't dance. I'm just hoping for rain and if it comes I'm taking as much as I can. All rain that hits me is going directly to my stem so I can drink baby.

They cup and point up so the water will funnel to them instead of the grasses other plants around them.

No they don't, but I suppose it's ok for you to think they do

I'm all ears if you have advice about how unhealthy my environment and plants are. I'm happy to learn. But no, just no. I think they look just fine and perfectly content and happy.

they are not "perfectly" content, but the stress is very minor and nothing to worry about

What don't they? I have two plants I can let go for a week and you will see they will be pointing up, add water, next day they are back to normal. Temps are in upper 60's, 30 RH. It's fun to watch, they tell me when to water.

I'm just trying to point out that happy plants will "V" their leaves when all of the variables are good. Some strains "pray" more than others, but praying isn't always a bad thing. Yes, it can mean something is wrong, but not all the time. As soon as my plants are dialed in perfectly they pray, well like I said most strains will. Sometimes you'll see a leaf completely twisted sideways (usually the plants on the far side of the light) and they angle their leaves to get the best light possible. It's pretty interesting so watch how the leaves move, I wish I had a time lapse cam so I could show you what I mean. Heat can sometimes make them "V" as well, you just have to make sure the plants are healthy and happy all environment factors are ideal. If not, then the praying may indicate that you'll need to change something.
