She looks thirsty to me, plants need water to maintain their turgor pressure, as the pressure drops she starts to droop.

Plants also sleep at night too, she might just be getting ready for bed after baking in the sunshine all day, I'd do the same too!!! Otherwise she looks as health as.....👍🌞

She looks ok. Dropping is a sign of over or underwatering. It could also be too much light scaring them a bit as they haven't stretched too much I would guess the lamp is a little too close or too intense/powerfull.🌱👍

top of medium looks dry... That may be wilt, not overwatering, since it's also been a while since the act of watering. are you watering until there is some run off? if not, you may not be saturating the soil/coco completely. If you are familiar with dry and wet weight, you can easily eliminate this as a possibility and ignore me. watering when lights come on is definitely the better way to go. A guideline.. e.g. if oyu are leaving for the weekend, it's better to water at night before you go than not at all :) in general, you want to provide available nutrients when they will be most in demand. Okay, i looked at diary, and you need to water more. That's all.. don't fertilize the first couple times, just in case evaporation caused some buildup... any hint of yellow and go back to normal schedule, if it was working well preivously. wait for 1/2-1" to dry on top.. water throroughly again (or with fertilizer as you do normally).. feel weight when it is wet... feel when dry... can help when soemthing is deceiving your inside pot where you can't see.

How often do you water your plants? You should try and make sure the soil is pretty dry before watering. Push your finger into the soil about an inch (on the perimeter of your pot) and that should be bone dry before watering. The roots need the soil to be dry to get oxygen, if you are watering too often you will suffocate them.

It's suggested to water when your lights come on. Sounds like a bit of overwatering. Do you water every night? At this stage I watered every 3-4 days to full saturation. It's that wet dry cycle the plants need. Happy Growing! 👊

Could be overwatering, could be too high temperature. Also it's better to water right when the lights turn on, because the the heat it produces counters the increased humidity from watering. High humidity during night time for the plant will increase the chance of mold, so it's best to even reduce it compared to day time.
