leaves are turned down at the tips.

what is going on? could my light be the wrong spectrum? it says that it is rated at a good quality sunlight spectrum. i think im going to ditch the floros for a 250 watt halide. and a 600 watt sodium. anybody know where i can get a really cheap set up? any input will be thanked

ill get batteries for my camera real soon so you guys can help me diagnose the problem. the growbible metntions nothing about underfertilization only toxicity.

www.htgsupply.com nice pricing on lights and maybe it could be heat stress does your light give of alot of heat?

it could be a lack of some nute or another too what kind of soil are you using and how much of the tip is doing this? is it just curling or is it burnt

sounds like a PH problem to me and a bit of lockout to boot.... maybe flush em and not worry about the light as cfl wont couse that to happen

looks kinda stretched too get the light a bit closer if at all possible too and get it in a bigger potter might be a bit root bound

I was about to say the same... I dont think thats the root of your problem, mine are doing the same thing... except they are a foot tall. But bring the light closer, and flush em out real well just to make sure. If you plan on growing seriously, spend the 15 bucks on a Ph meter and it will help you a lot. Its not a lot of money when you think about how much your saving from growing.

you know, my plants did that when i got the light too close. just the tips would curl down. check out my grow journal and see if yours look about like mine.

good good, thats what i like, nutrient care at the drop of a dime lol, your plants will love you.

im not sure how long this feeding will work. this is designed for flowering plants. i was treating a lack of nitrogen. check out my post in the general gardening section, i found a good source for nitro and guano.
