Plant starting drooping 1 day after first LST. Day 2 now and more droopy. Is this normal? Before LST she was very happy and perked up.

Who asks a question (or a series of them) and jumps someone's shit for suggesting something for you to consider. Yeah, the soil looks dry asf.. I agree with addonexus about your watering/feeding habits. I see from the number of questions you've asked along your grow that you DONT know everything.. so why pretend you do? People here are VERY helpful.. no need reply like you did, when all addonexus was trying to do was HELP YOU and your plant.. LOOK, creepy_steve even suggested you lift those leaves off the soil. Looking at your diary you didn't take that advice. See how the lowers are yellowing??? Why ask a question if you (think) know it all?? Be a little nicer to our fellow growers, especially the ones trying to help YOU. FFS

It is not a water issue and if it is it would be over watered. She is not anywhere close to under watered. Ph is perfect, temp is perfect.

Hello Jaykut22, Despite how early it is and how compact your plant is I don't believe the problem is the LST, I personally think its watering. Your medium is very dry, and your ladies appear to be somewhat light green and or yellow. This could very well be your light and not their true color but if it is I would start by giving a ph'd dose of water from the base to slightly farther than the edge of your fan leaves. If the color doesn't improve, I would suggest adding nitrogen to your water and seeing if the issue corrects itself. Finally, as another commenter added, try not to let your fan leave's touch the medium especially if its wet. Hope this helps!

oh, if you felt any damage to the vascular tissue while shaping / bending... that could cause temporary droop, but should heal within 2-3 days depending on severity.

you may even see 3-lobed leaves after an LST. low stress does not mean no stress. sometimes the plant will react. the only thing i see that is concerning is if a leaf is resting on the soil. That would lead to problems. should ancher the base in opposite direction or it'll lean through soil instead of bending. it'll get worse as the soil dries and is more easily plowed out of the way by the tension created. an anchor helps keep everything in place.
