Nitrogen toxicity?

It has a weird leaf curl. The ends are pointing straight down on some leaves. Also, a little twisting. Maybe some dark leaf veins. I’m reusing some soil from my last grow that I had outside in a huge pile all winter. And I only put .25 tsp per gallon of Big Grow last watering.

hey there, downward pointing leafs is due to water mold probably from overwatering. See this happens when you dont follow a strict wet dry cycle. You know it's overwatering based on the puffy space between the veins of the leafs. To fix this you need to follow a strict wet dry cycle and break down the problem roots with a chelation agent for example enzymes, humic acid or beneficial bacteria. Mainly a strict wet dry cycle should take care of this. Hope this helps ! 🚀

oh, only feed fox farm 1-2 times a week, too. That plant is borderline large enough to handle 2x a week, but if you've been overfeeding before this point, stick to 1x a week unless you see any fade in leaves.

N-tox would have dark leaves. Curling down is a general sign of too much nutes, though. It's still fairly young, so it oculd be somethign it'll grow out of, as far as that one larger leaf curl, since the other full leaves look fine. fox farm? that's trash and could be the cause. Dial it back to 1/2, and if that's what you normally do, dial it back more. It can get you through, but choose a different brand in future. One that doesn't have a cartoon or cartoon-like graphic on the label. Looks like new growth definitely showing something - K or just too high TDS. dial it back more, i bet it clears up, or give it a good run through of ph'd-only (6-6.5) water and then some time to clear up. That's the other thing with fox farm. Any dose near what they suggest and you need a ph-up additive. pH can cause any and all nutrient issues on its own.
