Droopy leaves is usually over or under watering. Water until you have runoff. Check that waters ph and ec levels as well. Make sure the ph is in the proper range for flower cycle. Make sure your ec hasn't creeped up to much. Cheers

Heat stress? Light stress? Nute burn?
Hi y’all Since my girl started to flower the top leaves near bud sites have this weird cupping downwards look. I doubt it might be a nute burn since I already gave her a good flush. I think the heat might be the main issue (86-87degrees during day). What do u think? Day38autoflwr

Nitrogen toxicity and tip burn
Smallest plant (1st pic) was showing nitrogen toxicity and I just fed distilled water at 6.3ph to try and help. Bigger plants had some tip burn and curling up. Thought this would help them. Any tips on how you would treat this please?

Leaces curl down
Hi, I noticed the leaves are not praying anymore (pointing upwards). This change happened sometimes this week. The feed schedule, temp, rh, has not changed much. What might I be doing wrong for the leaves to start sagging?

Leaves of plant are clawing but not sure on the reason why. Suspected nitrogen toxicity as nutrients have 2.1% nitrogen and was feeding everyday. Have laid off.. and will be doing twice a week. Is this right? It is the only thing I can think of that is causing clawing..

Last compost tea was probably a bit too strong, causing clawing and droopiness these last few days. The following feeding was RO water only. I'm wondering whether there is some kind of nutrient lockout or N tox/def going on at the moment. Growth upward hasn't slowed down though.

Nitrogen claw in hot soil. To flush or not to flush - that is the question!
Think my plant's suffering from nitrogen toxicity because some of the leaves are clawing and have yellow tips. Must be the hot soil because I haven't fed her with any nutrients. Should I leave a few days and see what happens or is it worth flushing the soil?

Clawing and Brown Edges
Got some major clawing and brown edge action here. Anyone seen this before? I'm in FFOF with 20% EWC and 20% perlite...not really convinced this is nute burn, even though it looks like it...leaning more toward light/heat burn. Using the SF2000 and had it at 60% roughly 20in above
