i just got my afghan kush seed and its 5 inches tall and 2.5 weeks into veg and been well under the florescent lights, but recently the plant leafs have been folding upwards like a "taco" but the dark green color is still there

any suggestions..?:rastasmoke:

the color looks good which is always a good indicator. It might be your ph...do you have a ph meter to test soil? Also, it may be over watering. That can make the plant droop....

good luck! :jointsmile:

That had been my thought about the ph. i do not have a test kit (yet) but i have been watering and misting the plant every over day, too much?

it's possible that you are just over watering since the color looks very healthy. But get yourself a little ph tester set with the up and the down....like $8-10 at a home depot. spraying the plant with water in this stage is ok....just a few squirts though. How much water would you say you are adding every other day? you don't need alot. I generally use an 1/8th of a gallon per plant at like 15-25"....so a little baby only needs a small amount....just enough to keep the roots moist!

good luck!!! :jointsmile:

Looks much better. I'd definitely over-watering. If you can check on it often, just wait until you see some wilting to water again. Cannabis like wet/dry cycles. Also like I said in your other post, start with a smaller container next time. You could probably still get away with a transplant into a smaller one, but with that being your only plant, personally, I wouldn't risk it.

Looks pretty healthy... slight curling of the leaves is often caused by too little humidity, too much wind, or too much heat
