Ok. I have three Afghan Plants and they are 1 week into flowering. im using fox farm ocean soil and fox farm nutes as well. The leaves are starting to curl at the ends and leaves have also started to fall off the one of plants too:cry:. i am using a 150 watt HPS light thought out the whole grow. I also have PHOTOS as well. so if anyone knows what the problem is Please help me out. Also any additional advice would be great... like if the pots are too small or somthing like that. THANKS

The green pot is almost big enough the others look too small, I see the soil looks very dry, the drooping may just be a watering issue, give em something to drink!

It's not dieing mate, just stressed.
I've seen a lot worse than yours and they have pulled through.

When plants are stressed you need to get back to basics and get them right.

What is your watering schedule?
What nute strength you on.
Temp' and RH?

Twisting leaves usually indicates heat stress.
How hot is your grow area?
How close is your light.
How good is your air circulation and extraction?

Ok. Well how i water my plant is i just water when the soil is dry about 1 inch from the surface. and the nutes i am using right now are fox farm big bloom and fox farm tiger bloom, i have them on heavy feeding. i grow in an attic so there isnt much ventalation. the light is about 3 feet away from the top of my tallest plant. and i dont know what the temp is in there but i know it gets way hot in there during the day. And i dont know what an RH is? so yeah Help me out please. and if u have any advice on how to increase ventilation in my attic please let me know. Thanks

RH = Relative Humidity...and you need to know your temps.
I think your watering schedule is OK.
From what you've just said I'm sure it lack of air circulation and heat stress.
At least get a fan of some kind to move the air around up there.
Have it so it's blowing across the tops of the plants between them and the bulb.
Chances are it's 100F+ up there in the attic and without any form of extraction, it's not an ideal environment.
Start by circulating the air around a bit and see if it improves conditions.

Sounds like a heat issue. I use the same fox farm soil, nute combo for my mothers and they do jst fine. As they get older though and into flowering you may want to switch to a different nutes, something a little stronger. The plants do not look that bad at all overall either, matter a fact they look pretty strong. Get a cheap thermometer that records highs and lows of temps so you know how hot the room is getting (radio shack is best place). Get the other two plants into bigger pots asap, you want those roots to have as much room as possible. Good Growing and keep posting questions.

its never early to flower... but the longer u veg the more you get.. u can do 12/12 from the seed if ya want... but ya as everyones already said its most likely heat so get a fan n figure out a way to get that hot air outta there
