Plants drooping after really hot temps (OBVIOUSLY A NEWBIE QUESTION)

[nattymari]

Been pretty steadily in the 80s to 90s here and recently (past 2 nights) my Scorpion and Reaper that otherwise seem to be doing real well have been drooping at dawn.  In all other ways they seem to be doing really well.  Is this related to the afternoon/evening heat possibly?  Is it safe?  Should I put them in shade midday (they get really good sunlight from about 6 AM to 8 PM lately)

keep then out of the 2 to 4 range should ease their pain .

Thanks Moruga... found an earlier thread from 2013 describing the same phenomenon in similar (hot and humid) weather.  It's weird, they almost form this tight phalynx shape.. then in the morning they are back to their normal perky selves.
