Droop during dark cycle?

[Natural]

Why do my plants droop during dark cycle?
They're in veg, 20/4, temps with light on are around 69 - 73 F, temps with light off are around 68-70 F.

They seem to droop about 30 minutes after the light has gone off, then perk back up about an hour after the light has come back on.

I've noticed this sometimes immediately after I water.

Is it soil or hydro? Does this happen every dark period? Do you let the soil dry out between waterings?

Hey Natural!

My plants always go a bit droopy when my lights are out.. They always did I thought it was normal?

Sorry, forgot to mention I'm in soil.
Yes, this happens every dark period... the soil is pretty damn dry between waterings. I usually wait until I can stick my index finger in as far as I can and not feel much moisture.

Weed22man: It never happened to me in the past year... maybe it was because of the strain... My quick mist seem to droop, but white rhino dosen't. They're in the same soil mix too...
(3 quick mist, 1 white rhino)

Sounds like it's the strain. They look healthy with the lights on, yes?

Yep.
I just hate opening up the cab in the morning (comes on 30 minutes before I leave) and seeing droopy plants.

So others have this issue too...?

This is not an issue, it is the normal biological rythm of plants. Most plants droop at night, you should not worry.
