Is it normal for leaves to be drooping for couple of hours after watering ? i have 9 plants in 2 gal smarts pots and almost always when i water them (every 2-3 days when they dry) their leaves droop for couple of hours .Im giving them 700ml of water each right now but as you see in the second picture one plant is still drooping 6 hours after watering. Is that normal ?

first pic is from last night and second pic is today 6 hours after watering.They were all drooping the first hours but they bounce back ,but the one on the left which has the bigger and longer leaves is still drooping.

For starters let's get pictures without the purple light on. Second the drooping could be from overwatering.

It can happen. But they look fine to me a little small but look fine.

Most drooping I’ve ever encountered has been due to overwatering. You can even let them dry out more and wilt a little before watering to see if that remedies your problem. But from your pictures they look ok.
