Maybe, it was too wet too long. Chilis can take a good dry day, usually not bone dry at some points light can hurt too but aside from that, a few leaves dropping, is just chilis doing it’s thing, when light changes / relocation of the cups, but it’s just a guess.

When you say grow mats, are you talking heating pads? You shouldn’t be using those for that stage of plants. I take mine out once they get their first couple sets of leaves. If the ambient temp of the shed is that warm, you definitely don’t need to be heating the soil. The shed also may be *too* hot for them. How humid is it in the shed? Is there any airflow/windows?
The plants look healthy otherwise, I guess I wouldn’t worry too much about those leaves, but I would probably take them off the heat mat, and if the shed is really humid, I might try to find a way to get some airflow in there to decrease the humidity a bit.
Is your light on a schedule, too?

They are past heat mat stage. The plants look healthy otherwise, as others were saying with your last post. I don’t know much about your growing regiment, but everything else looks good and new growth on top seems to be coming in, so steady as she goes. A few more leaves might drop but you’d be surprised how sturdy these plants are and what they can come back from. Being from Australia, you’re also into warmer months now too, so they should be plenty fine over night in that shed.

I would back those lights up a little bit, that’s SUPER dense growth and my thought would be there’s not enough room between nodes to keep the leaf and start an offshoot so it’s dropping the leaves to start new branches. Check the leaf points, any sprouts where they fell off?
