leaves feel dry

What causes leaves to feel dry to the touch and curl down? These leaves are in the lower branches. Misting these lower leaves each day with water seems to help.I have been careful to not over water. Is it a problem with nutrients or humidity?

Hey there, it unfortunately is overwatering, you can tell from the puffy space between the veins of the leaves . That downward curling is due to some kind of water mold. Basically it's not your fault, happens all the time with the plastic pots. keep not overwatering, probably wait an extra 18 hours than you normally would, the main idea is to water just before lights on aswell, that will help just a bit. To fix the root zone issue , you need to break down problem roots with a chelation agent for example enzymes or humic acid, or even beneficial bacteria like bacilus subtilis or thuriengiensis . Just start adding either of those (not all three!) and the problem will stop spreading almost immediately and the plant should fully recover within ten days. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi @OnTheMoon It seems to me a lack of ventilation, the branches are thin and cannot bear the weight of the leaves and buds. The more a plant shakes in a stronger wind, the stems are left with a fan pointed towards the bottom of the plant. good luck mate 👍
