hey i had a little of the same problem with mine and it would help if you had other pics but you are prolly underwatering your plants go to my thread "helps i got wilting" and thanks to beach i perked my plants right up i was under watering cus i was worried about flooding them but from what i read your light needs to be changed you can pick up a cheap one at walmart or lowes w/e and put it alot closer to ur plants they look a lil spindely and plants get on a cycle like urs same as mine right now 16/8 and they will droop in dark but if u watch them carefuly especaly when there lil they will look up when its light time. ill post some pics to show what i am talking about. but another way you can makesure ur not over watering is weigh the pot and then weigh it when ur do a full soak ( pour water in the pot till it freely runs out the bottom ) you wanna do this once a week and water like every other day not including spritsing them after lights out. hope this helps

if you say so man i was going on what he said i guess he posted the pics while i was typing my comment cus i didnt see them but, that first lilone being held up by a toothpick dont look all that good to me. but first grows are all about learning and junk so, hope u learned not to move the light around that much or w/e u did to get it like that, if i where you i wouldnt put them outside idk where u live or w/e but the wind down here would blow them right over. but i made that mistake myself with my 2 month old plant i thought the pot was heavy enuff that the wind wouldnt knock it over and i put it on my roof and 4 hours later i found her blowing around my patio. but she is strong and i still have her so what doesnt kill u makes u stronger i guess. good luck thought dirt

I read ur bigger post about that, thats insanse. today it was pretty hot and alot of sun so i gav them a few hours outside. their back inside for now, also under light until 12 when light hours start. I removed the one plant because there was not enough soil for me to grow it safely so i used that soil since it was still fresh to help support the other plants filling the pots to the top. tommorow i will buy a 100w Bulb for them to get stronger light off of. As of now they look good to go

are these just bag seed? or did u order them or what? cus if there bag seeds go out and get you some lil keg cups you know the red ones or w/e color u like and just use them as lil pots till your sproutlings are like a week or so old. u can even go out and get you some jiffy peat pucks at walmart like 72 + a greenhouse for like 5$. that will help you alot cus if your like how my first grow was i had 16 in dirt and 5 in a lil areoponic thing i built. but out of the 21 i only kept one its kinda shitty odds i know. but only 4 where strong enuff and 3 of them where males so i only got outa the bunch. so you might wanna go get you a bag of peatmoss or potting soil from walmart a 9lb bag is like 4$ of each and then just use the lil cups and get u some bigger pots and shit when u got biggger plants or just get all the stuff at once at walmart. i have gotten most of my stuff from there except my lights. fogger, and aquarium setup. but i got dirt, gravel, pots, peat pucks a green house and alot more there and its hella cheap cus i am B.O.B over here lols if u rly broke u can do a lil trick i did go to ur super center they should have a garden area outside and in there is a clearance plants find u a pot size u need and the right kinda dirt or w/e u want in one of the clearance plants buy it for 2 or 3$ w/e it is and then pull out the plant in it and pop in urs lol. i didnt have 5$ for the dirt + 2.75 for the pot size i needed so i found a 5$ reg priced lilly, on clearance it was 50% off. i braught it home pulled the lilly out of the dirt in the pot and planted it in my yard and transplanted my 3 month old into it. i picked the lilly because it had a peatmoss/soil mixture ( for more stable larger plants ) lol thats what the pot said anyway. but hope any of this helps u out man
