My plants are about 3-4weeks old growing under 2 40watt cfls and about 4-5 days ago the leaves started to curl down and old growth turning yellow and dying. I'm using a peat moss/perlite soil and haven't been giving them any nutes. Any ideas why their clawing?

could be N def and need bigger pots and do you ph water, your leaf claw is nothing compared to mine in 2007all all upper newer leaf growth was like eagle claws forgot what caused it other than that your plants look nice green healthy but better wait for more exp grower
I PH my water to 6.5-7 and just gave them a 1/4 dose of 18/18/20 nutes. I'm realizing I need to up the container size. They're needing water every 2 days in those pots now. They start to droop after 3 days and perk up right when I water them. But I don't think their health is from being root bound just hoping someone could give me a better idea

Room temp? I have had problems with clawing in rooms that are too cold
70-85 off/on I was wondering about the heat by the bulbs about a week or 2 ago I experienced a little canoeing right before they clawed. I moved the light up and they seemed to recover from canoeing but the clawing had started and my biggest concern is the yellow/dying leaves. Could be a mixture of heat/nutrient deficiency?

ready?
place something between bottom of pots and drip pans. full drainage must be allowed.
grow on.
oh.......pot up, maybe. and, you're sure that soil's not hot, right? they are indeed a bit dark.

Your plants look fine dude. Nothing to worry about at all, maybe just a little hot by the bulbs.
Just repot soon and dont listen to people telling you to flush.
