Leaf tips pointed down?! Thanks

migrower1985started grow question 5y ago

tips of the leaves on the sour diesel plant are pointed down, only about 1/4” or so back from the tip, it bends, literally like 90 deg 👇🏻... is this potentially something I need to address?

Hey buddy,That claw means nitrogen toxicity.Normally plants don’t use much nitrogen in the flowering stage.But for your plant, It’s already nitrogen toxicity, so you should cut of nitrogen nutrition.If not, It will hunt you until harvest.Happy growing...

Dry or Feed?What should I do to fix my plant? She has hanging leaves and yellowing for weeks. The summer has been pretty wet here, and the soil has been satiated a couple of times. It's getting dry now. Should I wait for the soil to completely dry or try feeding nutrients?

Stressed Seedling Is this overwatering or is the soil too hot (FFOF)? Week three now and growth seems slow, likely due to an early transplant? Removed the ziplock I had over her for humidity and have a fan going 24/7 now. Thank you for any advice! :)

Heat stress? Light stress? Nute burn?Hi y’all Since my girl started to flower the top leaves near bud sites have this weird cupping downwards look. I doubt it might be a nute burn since I already gave her a good flush. I think the heat might be the main issue (86-87degrees during day). What do u think? Day38autoflwr

Leaves hanging since a day or two Since a day or 2 the leaves started hanging. Perhaps this is due to over watering? I have reused 70% of the substrate of my last grow and for the top layer I added new coco with clay balls. Can the old roots in the coco substrate make the substrate retain more water?
