Heat or light stress??
YWLganjisanswered grow question 5y ago
I had the exact same problem where your leaves start curling inwards and I found out from my research that it was either 2 factors heat or light the heat, during summertime it can be hard for you to keep the temperature down so I would recommend buying a aircon unit,
temperatures between 20–30°C (70–85°F) during the day. Growers tend to agree that the ideal temperature is around 25°C

Yes. Either or both. Solution is the same, move your light up a bit.

Yellowing, curling tips?I'm in the middle of week seven and noticing significant yellowing, curling tips, especially on the top colas. Is this cause for concern and what could be causing? Feeding low-dose (1/4-1/2 tspn/gal) of dyna-gro bloom and the plant is growing in MG soil. I know, rookie mistake2y ago

Do I have an (Mg) issue?Leaves turn light, have black spots and 1 leaf rolls in upwards. It got Epsomite with every watering so I guess it's not a deficiency. Last time there was not even a drain. So maybe nutrient absorption is blocked? Should I flush? Is it to stressfull for this autoflower?2y ago

2 autos with crispy feeling sad looking leaves, how can I help them? (more info in diary pl & crit)2 of my autos have been growing leaves that feel crispy and look deformed. I have been watering when the top 5 cm of the soil dries, but I fear maybe I fed them too much nutrients. The temp has also been on the high side (30C 80F). What could be wrong and what can I do for them?Leaves. Curl up
