Curling leaves

[Johnnysgarden]

Having a hard time figuring out what is going on with one of my ladies.
Growing in black swallow organic soil 5gallon pots - transplanted 2 weeks ago
Room is 40-50 rh and 24lights out and 26 on(have ductless ac/heat)
Watering with ro water and calmag

Started to notice one plants leaves curling early this week so I've been letting pot dry out some thinking over watered. Haven't noticed it getting worse but also not getting better. Looks like it's just the tops of the plant.

Kinda looks like Nitrogen "clawing", I base that on how dark green the leaves are. It could be a watering issue, but it sure looks like too much N. What are you feeding?

What he said^^^^^

 

[Johnnysgarden]

I was feeding them medi one up until transplant . 3 to 5 gallon. Now using ucann herb thrive dry amendment. They were dark and waxy looking before transplant

Nitrogen or wind burn but with them being so dark, nitrogen would be my guess

Thanks for the info. I did actually move my fan and the corner that lady is in is directly across from fan. I have on oscillating but maybe Ill adjust that too and see if a change.

With organics/ dry amendments if there's too much nitrogen is there something I can do to help? I have been growing in coco up untill recently.

At this point you’ve got two options as I see it. Do nothing and just don’t give her any additional N until the growth turns normal again, or you could flush the soil to remove the N, however, it could really mess up organic soils. If it were me, I’d do nothing and wait.

some of the waxy & curl could be attributed to mites….

need 30/60X jewelers loupe about $12 or wifi mini microscope about $35ish but know that the problem with any magnification is image stability. You can’t hold device still enough to see what’s going on…. snip a few fan leaves, carry to table, prop your device for stability…… now what do you see?

seasonal changes can bring about cold feet….. whats under the plastic sheeting? What kind of floor? Yes but what is underneath the tile, carpet, vinyl or hardwood? Is this a basement or garage based grow space….? concrete slabs can do weird stuff to our plants

Thanks for the tip! I was battling spider mites before this grow. I stopped the feed for about a week now and things are looking much better!!!!

I will look at leaves though to make sure! Better safe than lazy

For my floor I have 2" foam then 5/8 plywood then black white poly. Plants are on little plant trays to raise off ground aswell.

I'm in the HVAC trade so I've been able to get the room very dialed in

Cool on the hvac trade….. apologies we get all sorts, kinda helps to write towards newbie level

setup sounds perfect and yoor room is clean clean!

 

[Johnnysgarden]

I appreciate any and knowledge or tips. You can never know it all. Thanks again everyone !

thanks for the plant porn!

Umm there wasted space to the left of the upright post….

just kidding - that’s a wall to wall garden, way to fill that puppy up

 

[Johnnysgarden]

I think the same thing every time I open the door! Think to myself that's an extra half lb of space. BUT then I cannot get to the back of room at all. Room is 7x5' . Net covers 4 and gives me enough room to work in there

 

[013]

Aww dude - just messing with you… that’s a packed house fo sho

 

[Sueet]

Lol I had been wondering how the heck you get in there, and I couldn't see any pipes for automated watering, thanks for clearing that up (and p.s. I am very jealous of your agility)

 

[Johnnysgarden]

Thought I'd give an update on the ladies. Its fall in the garden and harvest is nearing. I fed girls with kbs-natures pride dry amendments and PhD ro water with kbs boogie brix twice a week up to now. After I stopped using the old green planet nutrients the plants seemed to spring rite back

mighty fine looking yup I’d hit that
