curling leaves?

[misk]

ive reduced my water temp to 20degrees celcius and have 1/4 strength nutes in, after a day or 2 it seems to be coming back to normal, ther is still a lil bit of drooping happening tho, could my watering schedule be over watering the plant?

wat kind of watering scedule do u all use?

i also have a strange problem with some of the leaves kind of clumping together instead of fanning out, any suggestions?

cheers

Konquest- Yes that is pretty normal.

this problem is either heat/light stress in which case you would adjust the distance of your light, or it is a magnesium deficiency. To fix a mg problem add epsom salts to your water. I the leaves start to turn yellow on th tips give the plant nothing but distilled water for about a week.

hey misk, if you need some really good sensors, you should check out growtronix for your stuff. its the cheepest, and most reliable. it does way more than the overley priced sensors also. so go check out www.growtronix.com

im new around here and everything but...isnt that a little obvious? You didnt even give any advice, just advertised. Are you not affiliated with that website at all? You just love it enough to plug it?

There is already enough advertising on this website in my opinion.

Well I have seen 2 differnt types of curling through my experience.

The first is PH flucuation. This is known as the "claw". To fix, start checking ph daily and keep it the same.

The second is overwatering. Its more of a droop than a curl. This means there either isnt enough DO, and/or water temps are too high.

Hope this helps :thumbsup:

The first pic looks like a ph problem. second pic looks like transplant shock or over, under watering.

Are drooping leaves normal during the dark period ??? They seem to pop straight back up when the lights come on.... ??

When plants go full steam all day and hour or so before lights go off, they have trained themselves on the light cycle. they will start to shut down, droop, stomata closing, ready for the night time building. perfectly normal.

Hi all , ino im in the wrong section but im growing 2 "cheese" plants in soil. Im a total newb to growing, got a pathetic 240w bulb but only used it for the first 3 weeks due to unexpected bulb blowing so using natural sunlight (IN ENGLAND ... DISASTER) But they are now 5 weeks old , not "budding" yet but some leaves are stating to curl is this normal or what i have pics but not any that really show the curved leaves oh and lastly have been using pk13/14 fruit formulation booster ... I KNOW its meant to be added during the flowering stage but i thought it may speed up procedures ... any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated thanks:smokin:

Hello! First time grow, I am experiencing the same problem, I have a one week old White Widow plant and am giving it a solution of plant food with calcium/magnesium supplement growing in Coco fiber in a plant box that surrounds the plant with florecent bulbs. I try and keep the PH at 6-7 range in the water and plant food. I just fed it yesterday but I have noticed the drooping happen since before I fed it, from what I read it maybe too much water for the little seedling. Can anyone give advice on what I should do?
