good or bad?

starting to notice my leaves are getting really droopy...

does the misting have anything to do with this?

leaves droop either because you are overwatering or bc you are underwatering. So stop misting and if it gets worse then the problem was underwatering.

Droopy leaves are either overwatering or underwatering.
Misting probably dosnt have much to do with it, unless your soaking the leaves.

If your going to mist your plants dont do it when you turn the lights off, that can cause mold, mist when your lights are on.

are you sure??

i have a 1000 watt high pressure sodium light...

wouldnt the water from the mist burn the leaves????

let me know...

How close is your light? And burning would result in yellow or charred leaves. Not droopiness.

my leaves are extremely dry....

and all the bottom leaves are crispy yellow....

then most likely you are burning them. Just water without the spray and if it changes then ur good. If not, ur light is too close. How far away is ur HPS from the plant? Its all about trial and error man

yellowing can also be a nitrogen deficiancy, how are ur nutes?

The lights are a good distance away so it shouldnt be burning. You should try a fert with more Nitrogen than P and K. Also check to make sure your not overfeeding them since u just started. SOmetimes you have to introduce the food to ur plant veeeery slowly or else the roots will get burned.
