HYDRO Anyone know what causes this…..

[SmokeyJoe]

I have a plant outside right now that I’m getting concerned about. It wants to wilt terrible in the evenings and all night. It stands tall during the days with little to no wilting. I did just transfer it from a 5gal pot to the one it’s in in the picture. (Not sure of size, it’s big). This plant was started inside and moved out. It went outside after making the executive decision to sacrifice smaller plant to allow more room in the tent for the stronger pheno. This plant is 10-12 weeks old already. It went thru 4days of 12/12 light before decision was made to remove from tent. It is almost completely done revegging now and is bushy as hell. Manifolded and using lst to spread plant wide. It’s more of a practice/experment to see how wide and flat I can get her with all the outdoor space. Posted some pictures during day and evening. It’s also has a good bit of yellowing and falling off of the lower, shaded leaves at a an alarming rate. Has anyone experienced this before, it’s happened once before in a grow I had outside a few years ago and could never pinpoint a cause. Is this normal or should I be worried. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, it has not been watered in 2-3 days. If that helps diagnosis

Plants wilt when there's no light to reach for. Looks pretty healthy and normal. One thing you could do to improve your set up is to provide more air to the roots. I see your pot is raised and that fine but if you made some more wholes in the sides of the pot the plant would be happier. Maybe for future grows. Don't worry about the wilting if it's only when the light is "off" as long as they straight up during the light "on"

Yeah it’s just in the evenings when sun is going down and at night

They're just tired at the end of the day

Trying to revert back to viggie stage.

Plants have a circadian rhythm just like we do. Once they have been on the same light schedule for a few days they know when the light is about to go off ( or the sun go down) . I have noticed that outside plants tend to droop more at night than indoor plants.
