1st grow. 40 days . Worried about my droopy leaves?

Leaves are quite droopy so wondering if I'm doing something wrong. (right side)

I'm watering every 3 days or so. Probably slightly more over than under watered if I had to choose . Though the plants do perk up a bit after I water, but this could be coincidence as I water at night and check in the morn, and she is usually perkier in the morning.

It's a cold climate so temp is about 23 during the day, and 16 at night with lights off

that one burnt leaf hit the cfl so i don't think it is related.

In the close up 2nd pic, I'm holding a stunted branch, 20% the length of the others, with nodes very tightly spaced, with lots of leaves very tightly layered. I'm wondering if this branch is better removed as it is spitting out leaves but getting little light and doesn't seem to be stretching at all. Seems mutated maybe.

But I'm really more worried about the droopiness? the lights are 150W ebay ufo led about 12 inches above, and 125watt cfl over the left plant, with 2 side 32w cfls

Bonus points for any comments on the left plant. She was planted the same time, but unfortunately fell over and snapped the stem. Thought she was dead, but just recently some leaves are blooming, and now have about 8 equal branches now competing for top spot, so might be an accidental success in the long run....

Hey, its nothing major wrong with your plants but i understand your question.
The temperatures you have is a bit low as you are aware of. If it was me that would have been be the first thing i would try to change. Is it possible for you to raise to around 25°C? It look to me that the smaller plant showing that its little to much nitrogen, but this shows up even more if the temperature is cold.
I took an extra look and it looks like she is "working" her way out if it. Get your temps up, especially lights off and you should be fine. bongsmilie
