I've had problems in the past with drooping as several of you may remember. Luckily I was able to clear those up and I'm nearing harvest.
I have 4 plants that are a few days into flowering. About 12 hours ago I checked on them and they looked fine. Didn't notice anything negative. 12 hours later all 4 look really bad. They are very droopy with the tops bent completely over. I checked to see if they needed water and they were bone dry. I gave all of them a good soaking.
My caretaker recently placed a small electric heater near the plants because the temps have been creeping lower and lower. Is it possible this is drying the plants out too much?
Do plants tend to droop when changing over to 12/12?
Will the feeding bring them back?

They bounced back over night. Look as strong as ever. A few of the bottom leaves are discolored but my big ladies went through that. I guess they were thirsty. I'll pay more attention to them with the heater in there. Maybe twice a week feedings?

Three posts and they're all mine!
Here are the ones I was so worried about just a half a day ago. They looked like they had been murdered. Shot and fell where they stood. Fed em and they came back, in the dark to top it off.
The other two shots I took today.

How cold is it getting halfbreed? I don't think I would use that heater unless it's pretty cold. During dark they could handle down in the low 50's(f).

Low 50s? Hmm, we may not need the heater. It's supposed to dip to below freezing tonight but I doubt it gets that cold in the house.

Seriously. I had a grow in a closet next to an attic. During flower the closet door stayed shut and temps went as low as 54 deg when the light was off. I had no problems. Check out my post "Bad Seed" Tell me what you think.

ya, i also had no heat in my grow room at night, and temps would easily reach 40-50 in there, (while its about 0 out side) and never bothered em, never had any droopage at all. exept on one plant once, i flushed it and it took forever to recover, i didn't water until it dried out, because it wasn't suckin up any water, i think there was multiple problems with it. but anyways i wouldn't worry about it gettin cool, i'd worry more about heat. and hb you feed twice a week? becarful man, it can take it just adjust slowly, i only fed them bitchs once a week. good luck.
