Too many nutrients, its nutrient burn. Use just water in soil, or reduce feeding a good portion if in coco. Stay lit growmie.

Nutrientburn?
I think one of the rootdiscs was very salty from the last grow. So that the plants have a little nutrientburn. The new growth is without any brown leaftips. The rinseout ph was about 6.3 and ec 0.6... can i do something more than rinse them with 10l pH-regulated water?

WHAT IS CAUSING MY LEAVES TO CURL? (Day 64 pictures)
The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏

The leaves have become glossy and yellow
The last couple of days, the leaves have lifted a bit again and bent the edges, and the leaves are glossy, was it a mistake to keep the light on 24h the first week, or what do the last couple of pics look like? (I have now set the mode to 18/6) so as not to fry the plant

Everything seems to be OK except one thing (week 3). I thought using the greenhouses at night made this, but it doesn't. When I check the plants early in the morning, their leaves are slightly curled upwards, just along the edges. As the hours go by the leaves flatten. Any clue?

Light burn ?
Signs of some sort of def or light burn? My full-spectrum COBs and bulbs are putting down ~22.000lux at the canopy, is that too much at this stage? Autoflower Green Gelato Day 24 Can’t think of any other problem besides the lights...

My plants are suffering a Phosphorus deficiancy due to lockout due to low ph of soil. My first flush only helped for a while. As soon as the medium gets too dry damage resumes. what should I do? I went to check on them today and the amount of damage they took in 24 hours was bad.

Why are the sides curling up? Question not about them pointing down but only about the sides curling up and very small brown points
What is this? Sides r curling up. Day temp didn't get over 23 degrees night temp is +- 12 so I don't think she got too hot. Points bit yellow Saw this yesterday evening too, today at 1 plant a little bit. They're probably pointing down because of the low night temp so that's ok

My leaves head upwards, is it a bad sign? [Autoflowering]
First time I get this far, I sometimes noticed after I water the leaves start to head upwards, or even without reason during the day.... then go down again. What is the reason for this you think? Is my light too far? or not enough something? I only watered twice in 10 days.

Upward curling leaves
Yesterday applied heating mat bcs temp was dropping to 14C nights. Now it stays 30C allday with RH 30%. I have found my seedlings looking like this morning. Leaves look dry. Could this be the excessive heat shock? Or soil dried up quick? What should I do? Water? Raise RH? How?

Brown rust spots on oldest leaves
Brown rust spots on oldest biggest leaves with curling inward - the rest of the flower is fine, just some occasional small yellow spots. No sign of pests. Maintaining pH ~6.5 but have soft water. Suspect cal/mag deficiency or nitrogen toxicity. Thoughts?

Deficiency/toxicity?
Hi, back again 😂 so the canooing has stopped on some plants but still present in some. I've also noticed the leaves to look a little off, is this the start of something I need to fix? They look pretty healthy other than that. The photos are of different plants. Thanks in advance
