Sick Drooping Plant

Hello all, this is my first closet grow, just something small and I'm having some trouble with my Cherry Lime Haze. The plant is currently about 6.5 weeks into flowering and about 2 weeks ago the leaves started to droop. This is only happening on the lower fan leaves and the leaves are still green but it is starting to worry me. I did have some gnats that I was able to get rid of with lemongrass oil bug spray (only sprayed the soil not the leaves), would the gnats or lemongrass oil cause something like this? My other plant sitting right next to this one is doing just fine, does not have any problems (except for the gnats a few weeks back, used same lemongrass oil on both plants).

The plant is being grown in soil and the only kind of nutrients I've given it was some molasses in water. The top leaves and buds on top still look quite healthy. All the attached pictures were taken at the same time just different angles and in some the lights were different.

Thanks,

J

Looks like you've got yourself a watering malfunction. What's your watering/feeding schedule like?
Very healthy looking plant by the way, you should stop your worrying. It just looks a little stressed out.

I've been watering when the soil starts to get almost dry, haven't exactly kept a schedule. Anyway, I've just let the plant be for a few days and I also mounted the fluorescent light in a better spot. I let the soil get fairly dry (stuck my finger about 4in deep and almost no moisture) and then watered the plant two days ago, so far she's looking a bit better. About half of the leaves have bent upwards so I'm just going to keep an eye on her and see what happens. She still has very healthy looking buds that are ripening.

Thanks for the reply, I guess I got excited too quickly about this one and should have just relaxed. It is very fun and rewarding to grow these beautiful plants.
