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 curl on upper new growth and mid but not lower.
I’m using the canna coco line except boost, looks like phosphorus deficiency. I just lowered my a and b 0.7 ec and added 0.3 of pk for a total of 1.0. Is this phosphorus deficiency and do you think my changes will help. Leaves are a little dark shinny and the shape is odd.

As you can see, the first two plants look quite good while the last two leave something to be desired. The leaves on the back left are curling downward and
and yellowish at the tips (in places). What could be the reason? I ordered some epsom salt to try it out (sulphur). I grow in floragard proffesional growmix (grown in lightmix from biobizz) and have so far only “fertilized” with supervit, otherwise only pH-adjusted water. pls hlp

Lila Stil und Hängende Blätter
Hätte da ein paar Fragen die Ihr mir hoffentlich beantworten könnt, liegt die Verfärbung des Stils an der kälteren Temperatur in der Nacht? Hängen die Blätter schlapp nach unten bedeutet das zu viel oder zu wenig Wasser?

The plants colors look healthy and about 8 flowering sites appearing on NL and 3 on WW. However, the leaves, particularly on the NL look to curl under. I've been having little trouble keeping the pH in the 5.5 - 6.5 range, seems to drop to the mid 4s daily, but fix quickly.

Clawing leaves
Hey guys, I found out about Growdiaries a few weeks ago and decided to subscribe to track my grow and look for tips. Currently my plant is suffering from The Claw, what should I do? She seems to be a little burnt by the nutes. I'm currently watering her just with plain water.

Droopy leaves on a seedling in dwc top feed system. Would you think it's caused by (1)low temp (16°C),(2) low dissolved O2 due to small air pump making Large bubbles, (3) lack of nutrients due to still being on seedling feed schedule, (4) low humidity.

Leaves hanging down
Northern Lights, Autoflower, 6th Grow Week. Some leaves hang down weakly since a few days, especially the upper ones. The weird thing is, that some leaves feel a bit dry, other ones feel normal. The other plant, Critical Auto, looks absolutely fine and healthy.
