Ok heres the deal...two out of eight of my babies are starting to curl in a weird way. There under a 4' 4bulb flouresent, there is a 6" fan inside for a breeze, there in a basic perlite/soil mix drains very well, i water about every other day, and the temp is at about 78-80 F and humidity right at 38-40%. i was wondering what the curling was about its only on the two largest leaves on both plants...heres the pics

Hey. My plants (white widow) were doing the same thing when they were starting out. Both maybe around 6-8 days old. They're 21 days old now and they're growing fine and healthy. :]

my temps were 78-85, 30-40%, also had a fan on them. mine were also 24 hour light.

I heard it's somewhat normal.. possibly a genetic thing with some plants? Maybe too much wind on them... It wasn't a heat or nute issue with me which was why i was confused about it.

The first two pictures are them curling and the next ones are what they look like now

I think it is a lighting issue , but nothing to worry about , the plant will outgrow it.
Or maybe it won't and die.

$that1dude$... I've had EXACTLY this same thing happen to some bubblelicious I planted. I scratched my head plenty, but left them alone and they came out of it and look absolutely beautiful now at about 2 weeks, 5-6 internodes, 8" tall, branched and stout.. actually look at lot like yours, just a little taller.

I'm growing in fortified MiracleGro soil, 400W HPS, temps range 70-85F, humidity ~40%. I had a breeze on them early.. too early, so maybe that's what does it.

I was really tempted to take "corrective action".. I'm glad now I resisted.

I thought it might be a wind issue to cause the direction they were curling, but it definitely coulda been a coincidence!
