Leaves look stressed out

[green44]

Im growing for my first time and 2 plants have their new upper leaves down, i dont know why they wont get straight like the other plants. Does anyone have any idea why they seem like they are water stress when they are not? I have 600 watts HPS lights on for 16 hrs and i make sure their soil stays moist. If anyone has some input it will be greatly appreciated :thumbsup:

Could you post some pics? It would be helpful as what you describe can be perfectly normal.

One of the plants is the healthy one the other one is not

I notice you say you keep the soil moist. That is a common mistake. You want to let the soil dry out before watering the plants. You need to allow the roots to get oxygen and keeping it moist makes it very hard, especially is the soil is high in clay content. To me, the leaves look like a symptom of over watering. The rule of thumb is to let the top of the soil crust over dry and when you stick your finger into it, should be dry to your first knuckle. Could possibly be nute lock out as well. What is the pH of your water going in and the pH of the run off?

My guess is root bound or over watering. Cant tell with out more info. Im shure you dont want to hear ir but fill out a T.S. form.

Also how old are they, what size pots, how often and how much do you water?

Ya fill out the form as the sick one looks like it could be either N overdose or too much water.
