You are right that some yellowing of the oldest leaves is quite normal, but the purple stems can indicate nitrogen deficiency.

As for the drooping, it can be the result of too much watering, cold water being added to the res, or they wilt a bit when dry. Check your roots maybe? unsure.gif Bit hard to say without pics tho.

Your temps are a tad colder than you want them to be, but if the roots are being kept warmer this should not the problem unsure.gif Sorry not to be more help.
