WW 3 weeks into flowering - leaves folding into middle

something is too much. it never got anywhere pass 83 degree? do u have a fan in ur grow?
I have a fan pointed at the 250W hood, which is about 8-12" away from the top of each plant. It never gets above 85, and I have a remote temp sensor hanging right next to the top most point so I can get the temp right at the cola, close to the hood.

Also, the pics of the leaves in the above post are from down further into the plant. It seems to be just a few random bud stems that are showing the problem... and of course the cola of one of my girls in the pic.

Could be from overfeeding. 2-3 times a week and full strength seems like a lot IMO.

I've never flushed the medium. I may try doing that next time they need watering and see how they react. The problem is pretty localized right now, so I just want to make sure it doesn't get worse.

Seems like some overfeeding to me. Perhaps combined with some heat stress. You may be better off pointing that fan directly at the tops of the plants instead of in between, if you don't also have one pointing directly at them. 8 - 12inches away is pretty damn close.

There's 1 major problem, wether it's the cause of this or not, get flushin !!!
Roger that :) I'm going to do this tomorrow. Do you normally flush with straight tap water? I let the water I normally use set for 24+ hours to burn off the chlorine, but I guess I need 6+ gallons for the flush (two 3-gal pots). I'll have to pull out some big buckets to let that set!

it doesnt look like it would be a nutrient problem since there arent any chemical burn signs. Wilting leaves can be a sign of under watering or overwatering. Yet i would still suggest not doing full strength nutrients start at a quarter strength and then ifit seems your plants need more try 50 percent and so on. hope this helps.

The issue got worse today before I could attend to them. I just now flushed/leeched both with 8-9 gallons of tap water, and then followed that up with a little bit of half strength BioFlores & Molasses. I'll update with pics in a day or two in case anyone is interested in whether it helped. :)
