And look at my lights i have
2 x 85w Big Cfls
4 x 30w Cfls
3 x 25w Tubes
so 9 light bulbs and some are level with the plant so it might aim the leaves down a little

you saying too much light might be making the plant droop to avoid the intensity?

im not sure thats right, id of thought if the plants too far from lights itll stretch and too much itl angle up to reduce surface area on top leaves and alow light to lower leaves? But like i sed Im new to this lark so i kno nothing lol. Thats logicle to me tho.

my leaves point east in the morning and west at sunset. they follow the light. if his lights were lower, along the side of the grow space, they would drop to get the most surface area exposed.

Yep thats what i mean not droop to avoid the intensity but aim for more intensity (as the leaves move to get the most light and i have some lights near to the bottom to help the gorwth at the bottom)

its cool. you might wanna move em up high for a day to see if that is the reason for your drooping.

Remember i got 9 lights the (2x) 85w cfls are at the top and the (4x) 30w cfls are a little lower in the corners and the (3x) tubes are from top to bottom so i havnt got just the light at the top (just to help the plant grow in all area's

i know. but i dont want to tell you its the position of your lights when it is actually a fatal condition. move the lights to see if it perks up.

I think I will throw some pics in here too. Friday will be the end of my third week of grow on my second every batch, all bag seed. My first grow is in it's second week of flowering at the moment though, so I am not a complete newb, just like 98% newb.
