How come my I. lobata leaves are turning yellow?

Toronto, ON(Zone 5b)

It's really really getting chilly up here so I decided to put them inside. BUT I didn't put my Ipomoeas in a well-lit place.

could the yellow leaves be from the lighting? issues about moving in? or could it be the pot?

All four lobatas are still growing though, higher and higher, but for one plant, it looks like the leaves are wilting, but not really (they're just drooping?).

The leaves can turn yellow from shock,but more likely due to reduced (e.g., insufficient ) light,drying out or just naturally getting past their lifespan..the leaves near the bottom of the plant are often the first to senesce...

Thanks for the info Ron, I moved them to a brighter area and watering them, they seem to be growing taller and taller, but some of the leaves are still turning yellow, just not as bad.
