Ive seen timelapse videos of marijuana plant growing and they allways wilt or droop during the dark cycle. Sounds like normal activity ur seeing. worry not

Normal.

Some strains do it worse then others, a couple of mine do it really bad.. to the point where it looks like they need water. I've never had a problem with it, i've always just assumed its normal. I could be wrong though

I think of it as they are sleeping after a long day of hard work

You mentioned watering every five days. Are the pots all dry when you are doing that? It could be the plants havent fully rooted into the medium in 3 weeks and the excess moisture also creates a wilted leaf look. Its better to get into the habit of watering when the pot feels light than to go on a calendar cycle.

Mornin Fellas,Thanks for your comments and advice they are very appreciated.My problem was they were not getting enough water.Iwould let them droop a lil to tell me when they were hungry,.I just wasn`t giving them enough.I have sence learned the lifting pot method and they are dueing fine.But i think i mit have damaged the roots on 4 of them.1purple kush is a lime green and very bushy.All the leaves are very close together.It dose not look like or resemble my other PKs.3 of my gdp are lite green and the leaves are thin and folding up .nothing i do will change this.Thier still growing pretty good so i guess we`ll see

Thanks Again Fellas
