Fish Tank Stand Grow
As the title implies, I'm currently working on a grow inside of an old fish tank stand. Dimensions 10inx25inx30in. Painted flat white on the inside, with mylar on the back wall. 1/3 Perlite, 2/3 Soil mix, and 6-23W CFLs, 2 daylight spectrum, 4 of the red. Today is the first day of week three for flowering. Vegged for about a month MG nutes for 2 or 3 of the total waterings, I know its not the best stuff to use, but she doesn't seem to have taken it so badly. Flushed her (Veronica) this morning, and she currently seems well. Just looking for comments, tips, or anything else that comes to mind. :rastasmoke:

Will do twitch, thanks for stopping by.
Veronica looks good a day after being flushed, but her leaves just won't straighten out. Most of the bottom ones are good, but the big fan leaves all curl under just at the tip. Any ideas what this could be? Its the same curl you can see in the pictures, only now the leaves are standing a little higher

Hmmm, that might be part of it. I think it is just more noticeable on those larger fan leaves, that just so happen to be next to the lights at this point. I've progressively cut off the ones below as they were beginning to yellow and die off, but they showed the same characteristics.
They are CFLs, so I would hope they aren't getting too hot. I don't have a fan in there for circulation, so it I'm not going to rule it out.
