Is this normal?

Hi everyone! I want to first say thank you for all the help given on this site.

I am a first time grower and wanted to know if it was a normal thing to have the leaves on a baby plant (10 days old) droop... and if its not then what am I doing wrong? I water my plants every other day and am keeping them under 24/7 light under a compact fluorescent bulb with a 150w output. I think im doing everything right but i havent seen any pictures on this site of a plant with droopy leaves after about a week of growth.

by the way... most of my plants are this size after 10 days. Is this a little small?

I think you're maybe overwatering them babies, they only really need watering well about every 5 days, nothing more from what i've heard...

skunkish is having the same problem but at the other end of the spectrum his plants are in flowering

anyhoo hope i could help

Hello Mr. Bass,

Your plant is overwatered.. You need to transplant her into a POT that is NOT clear..

a 3 gallon POT would be GREAT.. MIX perlite into your soil (30% Perlite/70% SOIL mix) .. this will help prevent over watering.. New growers often LOVE their plants to death by over watering and feeding their babies..

I use cups at first so I can place a lot in a small place. I just make sure I cut holes in the bottom of the cup for good drainage.
