How have you been watering? What are the lights (watts, type, distance?)

Likely just too wet.

Don't spray them if you have been, you shouldn't do that except under specific circumstances.

Mhhhhh...hmmmm!!! I don't see a lot of perlite in that mix, thats a bad thing!!
use perlite at your next potup to reduce these FFOF hot soil effects and to reduce root compaction
that plant is one sad fucker, have you got it under a 6500k cool white cfl..?

drooping leaves and stems is a matter of the roots, sniff the roots see if they stink
as it could be pythium, or just water logged ^^^ and lack of air?

damn dude! will you give her water?..makes me thirsty just looking at her.

temp is a little hi at 87 IMHO it's not heat..no tacoing either way or curling.

looks like she has plenty of N.

i can't tell your pot weight by looks however it appears the plant was just potted with new soil and not watered..they "wick"..so if it was just re-potted that may be. i went away for a week once came back and they looked like that and came back after i watered but you don't want to do that..it stresses them too much.

what are your nutes btw? what strength of label?

lights 18-24" away from canopy?

I have 1000 Watt umbrella light about 4 feet above, 4 CFL 150 Watt hanging and they r lighting the bottom of the plant. And I feed them every Saturday and water them when needed

Root rot is possible.

But the replanting recently means most likely it's transplant shock. It should recover in 2-3 days if treated as normal. I assume you have a lot more than just this one plant under your 1600w of lights?

A one kilowatt(1Kw h) on that lil sucker is way too much,
lets call this 'HEAT EXHAUSTION"
until 'we' know better, put a fan and temp gauge in there
keep her below 25c/77f​

Note that chart is for an unconfined space. That means if you confine a 1000w in a small space there won't be a safe distance because the light that would expand outward is being reflected back.
