Hello guys, This is my first grow and I need help. Leaves started curling downwards. I'm not sure whether it was overwatering, underwatering, or needed repotting to a bigger pot. I repotted it today to a bigger pot and crossed my fingers. If you know what's up please help! Thanks

Hi Wanderlust93, looking at your pic I would say its overwatering. One of the most common mistake everyone runs into in the beginning ESPECIALLY with Soil. I see you are running LEDs as well which don't emit as much heat as lets say an HPS therefore this will keep your temps lower and seeing your room temp in 70F I would definitely say if you are watering more than once or at most twice a week at the stage of growth you are at, then overwatering is your issue. Hope this helps. In the meantime let that soil dry out and see how the plant reacts. Its still early in your growth cycle but once you get root rot its pretty much game over. Best of luck. Cheers!

Hi, you are in good Company with Overwatering, The common mistakes are Overwatering, to much fertiliser, to near to the Light. Atm its no big issue. But overwatering is a welcome to alot of issues and pests if its not changed. Lets start with diluting the soil, Ph issues, Fungusgnats etc..... Watch your watering management. Look for a wet_dry cycle- . Weigh your pots dry( per scale or potlifting) notice the weigh she has. Then wate with 2 cups of water. Let her dry until the dry weigh is reached. The soil should be knuckledeep dry

Hey there so I'm agreeing with the overwatering....curious what soil you're using? The photo this week looks like it has a slightly muddy texture like there isn't enough aeration material like pumice, vermiculite or perilite. If you're using your lands dirt you may want to buy a small bag and lightly till it into your containers to help it with the dry/wet cycles. In general the plant looks like it'll bounce back from whatever the problem is as soon as its remedied, fortunate the damage doesn't look too severe. ✌️ happy growing
