You could transplant them and bury the stem deeper in the dirt, and try getting some kind of wind on them, it will help strengthen the stem.

Maybe its under water? I mean if your soil is still wet after a week you may have a problem with bad drainage. I think you need to water more then that... But if the soil is not telling you it needs it hrmmm..?

yea i made the same mistake....get a lot more light and just bury all the extra stem. They'll be just fine. but yea A LOT more light

Yeah I was watering about once every two days because of my container being too small. But about 2-4 days seems good. If its as dry as you say it needs water and is drooping because of that.

stumpsx2 idea is good and should give you a good idea of when it needs to be watered. If its dry that far down it needs some water.

usually when the leaves droop down like that, means that they are sleeping, give them light more often!

you can get a soil meter at wal-mart...or a [SIZE=-1]Aqua Globes would help water it itself.

From the picture I just think that the plant stretched so much that the bottom leaves just don't have enough light to stay alive.. since the topmost leaves don't seem to be all that droopy
