You should take care of the heat issue. The other leaves will have the same issue.

One of three plants curled its leaves.
One of these three seeds seems to have suffered a bit, but unsure why - the conditions have been pretty much identical from what I can tell. The first set of leaves curled quite significantly but the new growth seems to be ok? Any ideas?

Leaves had turned up (taco)
Will the taco leaves go back to normal? I've made the adjustment to light moving it higher and switch the veg light off for a couple of hours and use only bloom. Yes I had a nute issue she doesn't seem to need nitrogen the soil must be plenty.

Nitrogen toxicity?
This plant hasnt had any liquid nutes since been tranplanted 3 wks ago, i did however lightly foliar feed 0.5ml/l of bio-grow 1ml/l bio-heaven and 1ml/l cal-mag mixed with 1L spray bottle used over 1 week. My other plant looked deficient and bounced back. Could be anything else?

Top leaves turn dark and curl - What can I do?
I've had Nitrogen and possible Cal/Mag deficiencies 2 weeks ago. Mid last week I started noticing some burn a the tips, so i dialed nutrients back again. By this weekend the tips of the leaves curled further and turned dark. The rest still looks a bit pale, but buds look good.
