Curly young leaves (help)

I have a little problem with the plants in my indoor (70x79x160 with 4 airpots each of 12 litres) since 2 days ago are decayed, 3 days ago (Friday) I changed the lamp mars hydro ts600 (100w) for a more powerful mars hydro Fc300 (300w) I do not know if it is the change of format, the power of the knob I left it at half that is in theory 150 watts of its total capacity 300w and at a height of about 40 CM. The next day (Saturday) I saw that they were the same so I proceeded to leave it at 40 degrees of power and I gave them biofish fertilizer to see if it was a question of hydration but today Sunday I realize that they are still the same. I don’t know if it’s the light intensity with the new lamp or that I over watered them 3 days ago on Thursday (I watered them with around 550ml of water per pot) and as I said before, when I saw them like that on Saturday I gave them biofish fertilizer, but nothing…

Leaves. Too many
Leaves. Twisted

Your plants are overwatered badly, probably have too much nitrogen and not enough of P or K .... what you are seeing has absolutely nothing to do with your lighting... You need to let the pots dry out completely before giving them another watering/feeding. I don't understand what you are doing with your nutrients but you need to get back to some basic NPK and forget the extra stuff for a while... go light on the nitrogen as this has probably caused the calcium lockout ... the only extra I would give them is some calmag making sure your pH is between 6.0 and 6.5... but LET THEM DRY OUT!! Good luck!

Wow, you guys are doctors! Thank you! Well, I haven't watered them since Saturday (2 days ago), and I won't give them water for about two days depending on their progress. As for watering, I was giving them water every 3 days based on the weight of the pot and the signs from the leaves. I was giving each pot about half a liter of water for the 12L pot, or half a liter of fertilizers alternating with the biofish 2.5ml per liter of water / and the biogrow / 2.5ml per liter of water. I was giving each pot about half a liter of those fertilizers (one week one, the other the next) for the 12L pot. With the light, I did the exercise of putting my hand very close to the lamp to see if it was too hot, but I really don't feel much heat, just a warm sensation without burning. I programmed it TODAY to start flowering. So, should I give the Biobizz Calmag in the next watering or wait for the one after? The pH I've been giving lately was between 5.80 and 6.3. The idea was to try to lower the pH of the soil. I measured the soil a month ago, and the pH was a bit high, almost at 7, maybe a little more. I hope this info helps a bit to find the problem, and thanks, community!

biofish is insanely potent, any wrong ph swing with him - deadly for plants, light change big event too. Give them time and do what i wrote bellow.

calmag is your savior here, but why they show those signs is question : i would suggest to check those things first Are you watering enough and right is ph right inside of pot, so check run off That will tell you either you overfeeded them or underfeeded, that will lead to your future actions Distance of light, arent you burning them a bit Your answer is inbetween those Nothing is lost ! Happy Growing !!!
