Why are the leaves twisting?
UpInSmoke420started grow question 5y ago
Can anyone help me please? What would be causing the leaves to twist? This is on my auto flower skunk no 1.
Could it just be generics? Or a sign of a problem? Thanks in advance

Hard to say until it advances more. Light/heat burn are likely, and overfeeding as well.
Check your runoff EC and pH.

Possible runt? Bad seed?Any ideas about what is up with my Fastbuds Orange Sherbet? She looks like what many describe as a runt. I'm going to let it grow just to learn from it.
But, what in the world do you think is up with this little girl? She's a only the size of a five day old seedling 16 days in!Leaves. Twisted

Broad/russet mite contam on some nearby plants. These aren't affected to the same extent but there is definitely spindly growth coming in. I've treated two nights in a row with insecticidal soap and neem oil, ordered predatory mites/ladybugs, need more advice on products/methodsWeek 4

Strange leaves on seedlingHi everyone,
I started those two a day later than the others, the cotyledons grew normal but the first set of leave is quite strange.
The leaves don't grow opposite, but point on the same side... there are also some yellowish spot on them. I put a photo of the others to compare.Leaves. Twisted

My plant is twisting itself..Woke up this morning to find my plant dancing to "Twist Again".
Is this due to airflow setup inside the tent? Perhaps the lighting's intensity?

My grow is going a little sidewaysMy plant is in veg stage and ever since germination the true leafs are twisting to one side heavily?
More skew as the leaf itself isnt rotating just going sideway.
Should i raise my lights more?

Twisted leavesA couple plants have twisted leaves. I’m thinking it’s a light issue? I’ve been watering every other day (when dry) so don’t think it’s that. I have 2 60w full spectrum LED lights a few inches away. Might not be enough but I’ll be putting them outside once we get some sun.Week 2

Top new leaves yellowing and twisting.My problem from the previous question is developing. The new leaves are yellowish and now they started twisting.
PH is 5.8 in 6.0 out
EC down from 2.0 to 1.75
the lower growth lack this problem, could be light burn? Was 20cm away (150w)
Maybe its a deficiency i can’t understand3y ago

Heat and light stress?I think this is heat/light stress. The tips of the leaves yellow and point upwards, while some leaves are trying to flip over. Temps get up to ~80 right under the light, and this bud gets greater than 2000 µmol, but she looked like she loved it up until this point4y ago

Yellow marks in leaf center and weird King Kush?There seems to be some yellow marks developing in the center, this tends to be on the outer side of the leaf, especially during over/under watering? Could this be calcium/magnesium deficiency being that the water source is from reverse osmosis? Also, any thoughts about the KKush?4y ago
