leaves dark green and tips curling???

hi,

im new to this and have got 3 plants but one seems to be taking a turn for the worse and i dont know what it is they are in soil, the room temp is 25 humidity 25 1 fan circulating the air and a small oil heater keeping warm and that is being run through a thermostat set at 25. im not using any feeding liquids just plain tap water. im using a 125w cfl bulb which is 3inchs above plants...

please advise.....IMG00178-20110120-1742.jpgIMG00180-20110120-1742.jpgIMG00179-20110120-1742.jpg

....ph looks too high in your medium, you need to make your waterings slightly acidic....6.5 is good for soil ...do you dechlorinize your tap water???

Everything looks fine to me. Looks like they are starting to get hungry for Nitrogen. I would start adding some kind of nutrient schedule asap.
 
I was gonna say the same thing but you beat me to it lol
cheers lads thanks for your help with this. just borrowed a ph tester and the water was reading at 7.5 so adjusted that now to 6.5 and added some nutriants to the water and give it some time to see.

whats the ec level got to read on the ec meter????

ec is Electrical Conductivity, a method of measuring total dissolved solids in a solution. It can help you determine your nutrient solution that you premix and whether it is too strong or too weak.
