slight curling of leaf tips

i have noticed that on my auto the tips not just the very end but all the tips have curled ever so slightly down and is showing a little droop nothing major i've been reading and figured i have slightly over watered i never water to see run off, the only time i ever did water until i saw run of was just before i potted my plants as i wanted to check drainage and i know it isn't a problem.

the reason i don't water till i see run off is because i am using all mix and an auto so i am just using water as i would like to give it at least 4 weeks to use up all the nutes in the soil before i feed "or when the plant shows me its time "

does this sound like slight over water ?

i've began lst like 2/3 says ago and that is going really well just wanna get some idea on the slight curling and have my suspicions confirmed, i have no pics as im on lights off for the next few hours.
 
yeah i read on clawing, they arn't dark green the tops are a light green and fan leaves are slightly darker but not by much i don't think its an N deficiency but will keep an eye on it.

what do you think slight over water ?
 
what i'm gonna do is leave it for a couple of days no water keep checking weight of pot and the knuckle check and go from there if it is N problem how do i get more N in the medium ?

i have biobizz grow,bloom topmax and epsom salts which of these is gonna give me an N boost if it comes to it ?
 
Post a picture if you want help. The curling leaves is usually N tox which could be hot soil. Dont think you are overwatering if you never have run off.
 
oh hang on you said it could be too much N in the soil ? so that would be a flush of the soil wouldn't it lol

which is shit because it's either too much water or too much N which involves more water hahaha

nightmare
 
yeah i will put a pic up when lights come on i understand it is unhelpful without one just thought i'd ask as it was on my mind
 
Nope It takes time for problems too show also takes time to see results if fix worked. Allmix is too hot for seedlings and baby plants.
 
so it would appear its slight nute burn so if i just let the medium dry and water until i see good run off this will dilute the medium slightly right?
 
thank you for the help Lio you did say the bio all mix was hot, i just thought as it had been doing well for 15 days it would be all good and it was over watering but looking at a shed load of pics of different leaf deficiencies, heat stress, light stress etc it is 100% slight nute burn so will do as you said and see how she goes.
