Leaf curling

JKent19started grow question 4y ago

Major leaf curling on one plant. It has been an issue for 2 weeks now. It's strange, no burnt tips or any other damage in 2 weeks, and it seems to be developing, but almost all of the leaves have a wicked curve at the end. Thinking it's a root issue, but could be a lot of things.

Well, I may never know 100% what it was. The leaves that had curled remain that way, but the new growth seems to be okay. What seemed to fix it was the Rootwise, 3 days after the application you could tell that it was back on track

I grow 8 plant of the same strain at time, it's not rare 1 or 2 phenotypes show such sign when all the others don't and while they all get the same feeding and environnemental conditions. I never seen it getting worse over time. so i don't bother about it, some phenotype are just more capricious and sensitive to feeding than some others. nothing alarming to worry about imho happy growing

So should I flush? I am about to switch over to my flowering nutrients. I don't want to flush all of the good stuff out, but I also don't want things to get any worse.

leaves diagnostic Wow, great news from my plants. Some of them had signs of either nitrogen excess or excess water. I realised that it was probably caused by both water and nutrients in excess. The soil to compact and dense was the problem, much better now.

Overwatered cubes in hydro? Too close to the sun? or effect of having add Hi All, I have issues with my first hydro grow - i effed up. I think i was too slow in the transfer over in the tank. Light is 200 PPFD, EC at 0.6, and barely added any nutes. Did i manage to overwater some of these plants by having them too close to the net pot?

Is this normal?Hey guys and gals, it's my first time growing so I just want to make sure this is a normal looking Seedling. It sprouted about 2 days ago and is smaller than the rest of my seedlings. Maybe genetics? What's your opinion?

Droopy leaves, curling at tips, and now brown/yellow splotches on leaves in DWC. Not sure what the issue is Unfortunately, I can only write so much here, but I have a lot more details in my grow diary. The droopiness started about 3-4 days ago, but now has started showing deficiencies in the leaves, and plants seem stunted on height. Day 19 since sprout.

Over Fed, Watered or Lights to close?Either I over watered, over fed, or the lights were too close. I already raised the lights to be 24" again, the plant grew fast and was only 16" away. Should I wait to feed again or continue as normal? The temp is 73-75 lights on, lights off it was getting down to 63.
