Too much light?/ cool mutation

I agree like what is it gonna make my plants suddenly be ok with that much light? I doubt it. I guess the bulbs are just too hot? I can't imagine them at 630w
A par meter so you can get optimal ppfd at any given time. Very useful.
Only other thing I can think of is a root issue. I've seen plants droop like that with root issues.

What is it then I know it's not over watered or under watered i transplanted yesterday and the soil was almost bone dry and obviously I watered it well after so it's definitely watered
Southside is giving good advice. No muts, you topped, that's why they look funny until they grow out. Drooping probably from transplant shock. Underwatering was a good thought too. You said the soil was bone dry....make sure when you water them in, you water them SEVERAL times...not just 1 time really well....the rationale is that the soil takes time to soak up the water when it is "bone" dry, flushing water through even with a lot of water often doesn't do the trick, and the water finds tunnels to go through down to the bottom and a lot of the soil may still be dry...this has happened to me several times before I realized what was happening, and I put a LOT of water in at planting. Water a little...wait 5 min...water a little...wait 5 min...water a lot...should be good...something like that.

Here is your answer! When transplanting make sure the medium is moist all over before you transplant them. After transplanting plants will drop like that it's normal, your normal heat and light will fix this might take them from a few days to a week.

Try giving them a foliar of 1/4 strength floralicious plus, at lights off, I bet they perk up the next day.

Yeah definitely and i meant no disrespect either I think there was just some miscommunication there due to that other guy butting in. But yeah I usually take my time watering ill water each one with a bit then go down the line comimg back until theyve all had some run off then I let them soak it up for like 5 minutes but I hope thsts enough so far they seem ok.

I'm actually gonna transplant my 5 og kush into their final 3 gallon pots soon. I watered today and tomorrow is their 5 week mark would you recommend doing it tomorrow since they soil would still be moist? Or should I do it on the same day I watered?

Just make sure the pot you are transplanting them into that the medium is moist ( Not Soaked with water ) just moist, remember they will drop for a few days this is normal
