Ok i got this problem with it seems to be just on of my strains.For the last 2 weeks my burmese kush plants in veg by the end of the 18 hour light cycle the plants start to drup down.They start off with the leafs at 45 Dergress look nice and healthy.I will say the the stems are turning purple now.I have tryed,Moving the light away,feeding less water and ferts,more fans,pretty much anything that might make some diff.They seem to have been to close to the light so a week ago i moved the light out of the closet and just in the room.Nothing.It has been getting cold when the light was off but i fixed that 2 days ago and still no response,this morning they still druped down.Im getting really PO over this.I was thinking the big change in room temps from day to night was the problem but grrrrrrrrrrr.They are still growing but just druping at the end of the day.

I dont think its my ferts at all.I did just move and the house is very dry.Thats the only thing that has changed,but that was 2 months ago now.Things like this make me want to just give up.I try and try and no change.But my other strains look good,but one clone of my SB is starting to do the same.Could it be a dieses?HELP ME SOMEONE
 
It doesn`t sound like a real problem. If one strain does it and the other does not it is likely genetics. It is possible, though unlikely, that it is getting too much light or heat. What are your temps?
Do you have co2?

never give up man, it can feel frustrating but part of the experience is figuring out these difficult problems. Is it slowing growth at all? If it is not is probably is not an issue.

However some things I would try, raise the humidity, what are your temps. and humidity at? Possibly RH is too low causing the plants stoma to not open as frequently.
Also i would look up fusilium wilt, i believe its called something like that, it can cause similar effects, but the way to tell is look at the inside of a stem, if it is red, (on the inside) it could be fusilium wilt, which is a plant disease i believe. just something i remeber from jorge cervantes medicinal bible, not certain thats whats causing your plants afflictions, but might be a good idea to look up. peace and good luck

temps have been good the last 2 days because ive been off work.THe temps now are from 26 day just over 20 night.but before that for atleast 2 weeks there where up around 28 day and im just guessing but i would say around 15 i think.I use a water meter to determine how dry they are,and i pick them up to.they do droop the last few hours of light not just at night.ANd its not soft drooping the leaf stems are hard as in they dont bend back up so they must be taking water in,and they are.Yes they are still growing but stems and margins are now red.Im going to check out the roots right now to see if they are dying.Like i said one of my Sour bubble clones seems to be doing it now.The light is about 1.5 feet away from tops.the bigger plants in both veg and flower look like they got light burn so i moved both lights.so all the bigger plants have damage but the ones in flower dont droop.Its funny how when i first tryed to grow they turned out amazing but now its problem after problem.To be honest i think its my soil.Since i went good soil (hp pro)then the $1.99 stuff nothing but problems.but i got bugs from the soil so i switched.cant win and it sucks.

This is a soil grow yes ?????????.
What medium are you using and what are you feeding them ????.
Overwatering will cause the plants to droop as you know and a good indicator of overwatering is purple petioles and stems.

I am so used to using degrees and i run 75* day and 65* night for optimum results.



What range should I maintain for my growroom humidity and temperature?.

Daytime conditions should be 70-80 degrees without co2, 80-90 degrees with co2 until the last two weeks when daytime temps should be kept between 70-80 and co2 can be reduced to adjust for the lower metabolism. Night temperatures should be kept above 60 degrees to prevent stress. It is preferrable during flowering to have a night temperature drop of 10-20 degrees to stimulate flowering hormones and reduce stem elongation.

I find that low humidity causes stress on plants. I recommend 50-60% humidity until the final 2 weeks of flowering. At this point, the humidity should be lowered as much as possible to encourage the plant to seal and protect itself with additional resin. (I am able to get the humidity to go as low as 31%) I have been able to frost things up considerably this way. The higher humidity levels prior to final ripening reduce salt levels within the plant tissue and encourage healthy, more lush growth.

O.k. before you go down a crazy long road of oh my god, which of the 10,000 things could be growing wrong here. First, the purpling is most likely from lower night temps. It can be a defeciency but it pretty much never is. Really its nothing to worry about, so don't worry, you changed the night temps two days ago, it's not magically going to go away, the purpling that is. It's going to take a while, even if it doesn't it's o.k.

Secondly, the drooping at the end of the light cycle. You can look at this way, you get up in the morning, you go on your day, your all perky and raring to go, then by the end of they, are you still perky? No, your tired. Same with the plants. They collect energy all day long, by the end of the cycle, they are tired. There is nothing wrong with anything. Other than for a while your temp swing during the night cycle maybe was a little too low.

If you over think this your going to cause way more damage than if you take a deep breath, relax and trust that this plant is a weed, and can take most anything. Just stick to your normal watering and nute schedule, keep the night cycle temps up and your gold.
