If you're talking about them drooping during the lights off period, then that's totally normal, they're sleeping, taking a break from the daily grind.

And what are you doing disturbing their dark time anyway?

plants will droop towards lights out when they are not getting all they need in the proper proportions...what nutrients are you using at what strength..how long are your drippers running for every three hrs?

dude, you need to stop shaking and hold still while taking pictures heh heh j/k

Just for the hell of it, try covering up one of those units with white panda film...
Maybe the medium is warming up in those big black units after they've been under the lights soaking in the heat for 14 hours.

dont run 24 hrs then..i would try 3 minute runs and i also would raise the ph to 6.0 for the veg more nitrogen is needed and is uptaken more at 6.0 than 5.5..i would also weaken that feed a tad

What I meant was to wrap the whole plant station in white panda film so no black is showing just to see if it would help keep the entire gizmo from warming up under the lights, not just covering the top of it. Heat and wet hydro root zones don't mix well.

Geez if you have parkinsons or something, than I sincerely apologise for my ribbing your photo skills.
If its alcoholism, then have another couple drinks heh heh arrrgh just kidding again
