Curl down can happen with a few things like overwatering or let in the soil get to dry. Also N toxicity bit they look good tho, great job 👏 👍

Leaves issues !
Could someone tell me why the leaves sag like that ? Go see my diaries for settings details. P.S : photo number 2 show leaves of the bottom of the plant, and no problems here. I also watering a little more last days, maybe over-watering issues ?

So I noticed on day 6 she started to stretch, she was the leggiest out of all 4. I swapped out the cup as it had a surround on it for jug to improve light. I think this has helped. BUT her cotyledons are very dark green and curling down and under, and her top is smaller+darker??

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

Nitrogen toxicity? Deficiency? Something else? Stumped!
I don't get it. Is this N toxicity? Serrated upturned edges, clawing, slow growth. But how? FFHF 75% FFOF 25%. Just Cal-Mag water. No food. NLS in bottom 3rd of pot. Not wind burn. Not too hot/dry at all. N deficiency? Yellow leaves on first bottom two only. I'm stumped.

What does she need?
She looks like she's over or under watered. Now this seems weird to be because she did this over night a day ago. I water her just as my others and they all are great. The strain..Chempie, by ripper seeds Tested the soil out, doesn't seem to be on to dry or wet.

Nutrient burn?
Hello I have one plant with yellowing leaves that are also curling downward. Only one plant of 6 has this problem, I suspect maybe this one is just sensitive to the nutrient rich soil? I am using fox farm happy frog and have added no other fertilizer. What to do, flush all?
