when a plant goes into flowering. Lower leafs will start to die off. But your plants have some funky looking fan leafs. What kind of lighting do you have? Do you have much ventilation. Does your grow medium have good drainage. I would not be worried about the lower leafs dieing off. but those funky fan leafs that look like spinache should be addressed. But then again, maybe i am not look at it correctly or something.

Fan leafs have long stems and also they only have 3 leafs per fan. Hmmmmmmm You sure you have enough light?

Here is the best CFL Home Depot has for flowering. This bad boy is equivalent to 300watts, so they say. But I know for a fact 3 of these can put out about 4 ounces of dank on 2 plants. This light is about 10 inches in length, and will fit in a normal 110 light socket. You will have to probably do some retrofiting of the reflector to allow for the large base this light has. Here is a link to it.

Usually drooping leaves are due to over or under watering, but yours are just the bottom leaves. It's normal for the bottom leaves to die in flower, but not that much that fast. Maybe you have a nute problem.

Also, what's your PH? And, do you water enough to see water coming out of the bottom of the containers? And do you wait until the soil is mostly dry to water again?

I have 4 of these. I had 23 watt CFLs before that. I like the 23s better, more light output per watt, and you can spread your light out better, instead of 1 big light (with little penetration) in one place, you get 3 small lights (still with little penetration) spread out a little better.

Those 68s do work though, and can grow an oz each with proper growing conditions.
