If they were really vertical then thats from a combination of high heat and humidity. Ive seen plants fold up almost vertical it was harsh

I have to agree with mack.,even though common sense dictates perpindicular leaves display more suface area to expose to the light.I can only go by my experience though,its always been a positive sign in my plants,never a negative.High heat may play a part,but thats not whats going on in my grows.

the edges on some leaves are curling in.....

Then you probably do have an overheating problem,if there's nothing you can do to lower temps spend 30 dollars on a cool mist humidifier,you can literally veg at 90F so long as you have a decent one with a visable mist and good air circulationEDIT It's also a great natural mitye preventative,I havent had a case of spidermites in veg for about 2 years now since I've been using one.I used to get them once in awhile

first off how much are you feeding the girls? in the info below i left outpic 15 didnt think it applied here.
below is just a thought....as far as the leaf turning up ward (vertical) you got me, mine do it some times. could be heat or nute or ph flux.
i pulled this from the plant abuse chart and photos by Nietzsche
Magnesium (Mg) deficiency:
Magnesium deficiency will exhibit a yellowing (which may turn brown) and interveinal chlorosis beginning in the older leaves. The older leaves will be the first to develop interveinal chlorosis. Starting at leaf margin or tip and progressing inward between the veins.
Notice how the veins remain somewhat green though as can be seen in figure 15.
Notice how in figure 16 and 17 the leaves curl upwards like they're praying? They're
praying for Mg! The tips may also twist.
This can be quickly resolved by watering with 1 tablespoon Epsom salts/gallon of water. Until you can correct nutrient lockout, try foliar feeding. That way the plants get all the nitrogen and Mg they need. The plants can be foliar feed at ½ teaspoon/quart of Epsom salts (first powdered and dissolved in some hot water). When mixing up soil, use 2 teaspoon dolomite lime per gallon of soil.
If the starting water is above 200 ppm, that is pretty hard water, that will lock out mg with all of the calcium in the water. Either add a 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of epsom salts or lime (both will effectively reduce the lockout or invest into a reverse osmosis water filter. Mg can get locked-up by too much Ca, Cl or ammonium nitrogen. Don't overdo Mg or you'll lock up other nutrients
at any rate i hope you figure it out and hope this has helped.

is this the right kind?
is this the right kind?
The plants do this when they are at around optimal growth they are full of carbohydrates.

that should be fine as far as epomsalts, the food store has it as well.i use 1 teaspoon per gallon and shake it good and feed them the next day, make sure the soil is at least damp not dry. then i pour a cup half full of ph'ed water and fill it up with the epomsalts so its down to 1/2 teaspoon per gallon your 1st feeding, then give it some time(a week) to react. the next watering use just water, then at next watering feed again.
i mix all nutes at full, then i can cut it if a plant doesent need a full dose. hope this helps.
dont exspect the leaf to jump back to normal, it may not fully, but it should help stop any more from curling.
