When the the serrated edges of marijuana leaves curls or tip up like that, it’s often a sign of temperature stress, overwatering/root problems or extreme humidity levels. Your medium dosen't look overly saturated.. So i'm going to go with to warm or your light is too close. what's your average room temp at the top of your canopy? Cheers and happy growing!

I am using mushroom compost and perlite. Adding nutrients at a 1/4 the suggested strength. Thanks for the advice. Happy growing!!

Yes pretty sure it is heat stress, new grower here also hit with a heatwave whilst in windowsill. Could have a feel of the medium? Mine was very warm when carrying water then roasted in sun. Left medium cooking the roots!
It will stunt the growth a bit but possibly make sure it doesnt get the intense sun on the pot during the day.
At least thats what happened to me, had to deal with stunted growth but it should bounce back.
Good luck, hope the grow goes well 👍

Week 2: One of the plants still doesn't look good + other beginner questions :)Second week and one of the plants has weird spots + leaves curled.
Not sure what to do. Do I overwater? Is it some kind of disease or deficiency? No idea.
Also, when should I start feeding the plants?
And how much water do I need at this point? 😥9 months ago

Top leaves turn dark and curl - What can I do?I've had Nitrogen and possible Cal/Mag deficiencies 2 weeks ago.
Mid last week I started noticing some burn a the tips, so i dialed nutrients back again.
By this weekend the tips of the leaves curled further and turned dark.
The rest still looks a bit pale, but buds look good.8 months ago

Week 8 (4 weeks into flowering) - Possible Nitrogen / Cal-Mag issue?Plants show signs of what i assume to be a deficiency. Stopped feeding nitrogen Week 7 according to schedule. Symptoms are not on every leaf but some the upper foliage. Yellowing, burnt tips and rusty spots. My guess is lack of Cal-Mag & Nitrogen. Is my guess correct?Leaves. Tips - Burnt

Curled leaves and brown spotsPlease help! My Acapulco Gold suddenly showed leaf symptoms today. Shouldnt be a lock out, I always water with drain and use lower doses than the BioBizz chart recommends. Used Molasses two days ago, could that be the cause? Its the only plant that shows this signs.8 months ago

Too Much Light?Top looks yellowish, more so IRL than in the pic and the new growth is kinda taco-ing. Just under 24" from the light, 78F and using Photone the DLI was at ~30. I don't really trust that app but if it's even sorta accurate, 30 might be high with no CO2? says their charts anyways.Leaves. Curl up

Curled up leaves on day 7I started a plant ten days ago and from the 7th day some leaves started curling upwards.
I flushed the soil one day before planting the sprout and watered it again on day 9. I use the Fecida 600 lamp 16/8 day/night.
Does someone know what could cause the curling of the leaves?Leaves. Curl up
