your soil is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to wet. i would guess there is stock perlite in the mix too. i would say overwatered and not enough aeration to the roots. stop watering it to much. it also look a little nute burn. the soil is prolly to hot with nutes or you may of fed them which they dont need any at that stage
I just waterd them a few hours ago thats why they look so wet
and the soil is all purpose miracle grow
hmmm....that is weird since it is still so young. I've had clones grow sideways as they vegged but I believe it was how they were bred. Your plant looks pretty small. Is it a clone? Maybe you can stake it and train it to stand straight up. sorry i couldn't be more helpful.
The plant will chase the sun, so turn your plant everyday. Also, sometime when there isn't a lot of drainage or to big of pot, the water will settle in the soil and make it mucky. Like half water an half soil. I think that could be, also if your giving nutes it really doesnt need them for about 30 days, it could be nute burned. Not enough info to be sure.Quote:

Good luck:rasta:
Its not a clone. But how do I stake it?
im gonna try and put a stick on it to stand it up right I dont know what else to do
Just get a stick (bamboo works great) and push it into the soil near the main stem and then attach the stem to the stick with a twist tie. You don't need to have it tight, just enough that the stick is supporting the stem. It will help your plants stand straighter and grow stronger. Just a suggestion. Seeing some others responses, you may have over watered....the only time i've seen leaves curl up like that is if it's overwatered or underwaterd. But like they all said....drainage is SUPER important!!! :thumbsup:Quote:

How often do you water, and how much water do you use? What's your water ph? When did you last transplant into the Miracle Grow soil? Do you use any additives or spray with anything?
Once trained to a stake, it's hard to break them of the habit...and the trunk will never fully develop. It will be a fragile bitch in extreme whether conditions, regardless.
