Been doing some LST on my younger plants this evening, and noticed this Critical getting red/purple.
This comes after a few (3) days which I've had the lamps on 24/24 in the veg-tent, raising the temperature after a few days of colder environment. Would be nice to cross this one with the purple GG...

@GardeningGnome I hope all is well. I left my window open the other day to cool my room down and forgot to close it for lights out. Check out the color on the bell pepper stem. Loved the discussions we had on plants and color. Looks like you have some more color coming your way!

Nice!!
I'ma wait a few more weeks until I put down my seeds for peppers... But I need to get organized and actually found one bag of bell-pepper seeds today when cleaning out some drawers. Got so inspired by your photo I went and got a extra light and opened the shades on the window and let some really really white light in (with all the snow reflecting) and took an update on my purple Gorilla Glue.
How about them purple legs! Hope all is well with you @Modest grower !!
Too cool!Nice!!

Thank you bruva! Seems to be coming along nicely. I’m wondering why the leaves are not perking up. Those are 5 gallon fabric pots yeah? How often do they get water?

Yeah, me too. Thanks for taking some time to look at them. They usually look perkier better before feeding. I'm guessing it might have todo with the temperature, perhaps too cold in the fabric pots for the roots? I keep the temperature at leaf hight to 28 celcius / 82 fahrenheit. The smaller one behind to the left is the GG as well.
The biggies are standing in 2.6 gallon fabric pots, feeding them every second day. They got food today.
What’s your feed strength?

About 1/2 of the strength now. Often on the lower side of that, closer to 1/3 than full strenght I'd say.

Oh @shottafire , I should mention that I've had lights on 24/24 for the last couple of days to keep a more even temperature. They have been putting on new leaves without any problems since the pruning. But the saggy leaves have been an issue from time to time. Took the photo now at a time when it is "at its worst".
Let’s try and get em perky and standing tall.

Sounds like a plan bruvva man.
To pin-point the issue, should we start with going back to 18/6, or up the feed strength?

Shottafire will know better as I don’t feed my plants and with the burple lights I can’t tell colour, but with my soil, if I see leaves drooping like that, it can usually be attributed to:
Under watering
Too warm
Too intense light
As I know what my lights are capable of, it’s usually a combination of not enough water for the temperatures in my grows.

btw @shottafire , might it be that my LED's are hanging too close? Might that result in this sort of droopy leaves?

Excellent input Celt!! I was just thinking about the too intense light issue, and when I had posted my question, I saw your update... Excellent!!
It is only smaller LED's that hang over the ladies, so that has never really been an issue with too much light, it has always been too little that's been the issue. But perhaps, that might just be the case this time!

Looking at your temps, my first thoughts were too much light 
Especially with the little one in the far right corner being more perky

What’s the distance of the light above your plants?

Here is a photo of the clone from the purple GG.
I know that the two biggies can perform just as good.

@The Celt good points bro. Do not up the feed strength yet. what I would like to see is daily waterings. but I’m not sure how developed the roots are so let’s start with the light. Like Celt said how high is lights above canopy. I never have grown with led’s but from my understanding plants leaf surface temperature prefers to be a bit warmer than with hid’s so your temps seem fine. And I would suggest going back to 18/6.
