The leaves are curled up, it's hot in the room these days, I guess this is the reason. Plants growing fast anyway, humidity between 48%57% but I'm worried because of this leaves problem. Should I ? I do my best to cool down but can I do something else ? Mist the leaves ? Thanks !

hey there, you're too hot right now, but actually for seedlings it's basically fine. Actually your leaves are curling due to root problems because the pH is too high from the root juice which will raise the pH of soil leading to this problem. You do need some pH down if you keep on using it , and soon you might get more serious problems. not to worry the soil will recover with a strict wet dry cycle (so simple!) or use a buffering agent like humic acid which will boost the plant and fix the soil, dont use to much though ! hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi @Paulolo03! You're right, your environment is too hot for such young plants. You can try to increase your relative humidity, by putting fresh wet towels every 12 hours into your grow room, or by adding an electrical humidifier (in this case don't forget to replace/refresh the water every 12 hours). Spraying a fresh solution could help the plants to relax, but only if you do this at night, do not spray anything while the lights are on, you will increase the risk of burnt spots onto the leaves. Another option could be to build a DIY air conditionner, with bucket/ice/fan, there are some nice tutorials on YouTube, but this solution don't seem really efficient. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊
