My new girls leaves are curling. Whyuiiiiiiiiiiiiooo (my cat wrote that) Why? the PH is between 5.0 and 6.5 and the ppm is at 1050. Any ideas?:roll:

1. Pictures
2. a PH of 5 is too low keep it between 5.6 and 6.0, 5.8 being optimal.
3. is this flowering or veg? how old are the plants? if they are young plants your PPM is probably burning them.

not enough info bro.

Btw there is a backspace key on the keyboard to delete errors. There is also an edit tool on your posts to go and use the backspace key. Also cats are the devil.

Yes they are young in veg stage. How do I fix if ppm is too high?
I adjusted the ph up to between 5.6 and 6.3. The ppm is now around 1050.
The leaves are curling still but only on some of the 33 plants and the light is at 12 inches above them with a glass lid on the hood to protect from heat burn.
Pics coming soon.

1000+ ppm if for flower. You are putting wwwwwaaaay to much nutes in. If they are in early veg they shoudl be around 300-400 depending on strain.

hey that curling happened too me on my latest grow. My humidity was too low and i had a fan on them 24/7. Dried the leaves out real quick i guess and it started cupping like yours. Hope that helps.

turn off the dehum for now i think. only really have to worry about humitidy getting too high in flower cause of the mold possibility.

Just my 2 cents.. those look like pretty fresh cubes... did you just transplant and / or change anything else? They look pretty good honestly, but i do see the curl. Anytime i have seen that its either been that my PH was too high (didnt flush the cubes enough and the lime they use to make them causes the PH to rise) OR i was watering too much and my leaves were trying to get rid of excess moisture.

Also, as someone else stated, 1000ppm is way to high for these girls.. I would be at half that IMO. HOWEVER, they look pretty good so....
