Twisting leafs, what does this mean?

[Ganja_man95]

My plant is nearly 3 weeks old now, its in MG soil (all Purpose compost) mixed with perlite, the 2 oldest leafs started to twist a little a few days ago, i didnt think much of it but its got a bit worse and 2 newer leafs have started to twist a tiny bit, but the plant looks nice and healthy and is still developing, what do you think is going on?

Its normal in the first few leaves, as they are only baby leaves and will eventually drop as the plants get bigger.

compost is powerful your plants maybe overwhelmed by the nutes it contains they will grow bigger and get use to it dont worrie for now.like ganja man said first leaves always wilt and drop.they work so hard to start the process for the plant that they die. And you should add some sphagnum peat moss to your soil next time, not just perlite.

Putting questions like this in _plant problems_might help. :thumbsup: A lot of folks who lend advice will likely never see it here.

There's also a trouble-shooting form there, too. Eliminates a lot of guess-work in diagnosing any issues. :thumbsup:

Welcome, enjoy your stay!

you can add enzymes and beneficial bacteria to help the plant eat up and transform the organic matter in your compost. Enzymes i know are for flowering stage but organic growers use them all the way from veg so look at organic products you will find something for shure!!!
