The stage direction in Q2 says "Exeunt Manet". Folio just has "Exeunt" Q1 has the interesting stage direction "They all but the Nurse go forth, casting rosemary on her and shutting the curtens." This probably reflected the particular way it was staged in a production of Shakespeare's day. Juliet would have taken the potion on her bed in the concealment space. When she is discovered, the family members strew her with rosemary (which they happen to have lying around just then) and close the curtains to the concealment space.
The theory is that Q1 is taken from an actual performance, and so this is how they did it in the particular performance that was seen. It does not mean that it was done this way in every performance.
