That's usually a good sign happy plants point tips toward light and somewhat form a cup shape to catch the light.

this is also odd since when I experience this "problem" I personally use a heavy dose of Cal/Mag once a week...

the guy above said it appears from Mag def. so if you aren't giving your plant the proper Mag you can attempt to correct that.
Me personally, when I was growing under HPS some of the strains I've ran in the past have done that right next to plants that haven't...and they turned out fine.

Basically what i'm saying is how is this a problem?
are leaves falling off? Did your plant growth halt? are there any other problems with the leaves?

when my plants point upwards they seem to grow faster. never had a problem with it. sometimes they point up and the next day back to normal. happens occassionly and i've never worried about it.

@PoBoy- Good post

To the thread starter- DO NOT try to fix something that is not a problem. Your conditions are probably near perfect and this is the result

I think your plants are doing what normally occurs between photo periods. Just like having a "bad hair" day; plants sometimes exhibit a bad day. One thing to consider:

Don't panic!

A lot of the time it just means a break in the plant's chemistry and should naturally fulfill its life cycle without worry....................... ;)

Nah bro, no such thing as a stupid question. To put it simply from my experience- Your plants are just fine and nothing needs to be adjusted..in fact I believe it is a good thing. I've had plants do that until harvest.
