Hay dudes,

First time growing indoor, got a closet set up. Seedlings were going well then suddenly leaves curled sharply up. Thing is I have 5 plants and 2 are still going well and have had the same treatment (feed, pH etc) as the others. My questions would be what factors cause leaves to curl up like this and how can I sort it.

"the same treatment (feed, pH etc)"


That's it mate if your v fed them you ll kill them nono.gif .. Keep off the feed its a noob error 34.gif

stop the feed water alone in a good cutting/seedling low nute compost even compost alone can be too rich so feed on top blows them away some plants can cope with more than other which explains your other two .

Welcome to 420 by the way cheers.gif

i agree with advice on seedlings!!

But lads and ladies a m8 of mine has a problem!

basically hes in 12/12 and some of the plants have leaves that have just sharply curled down! some of them on the other plants are starting to curl to the left and right??? Ive never seen it before but would put it down to air or the plants had a stroke maybe??

He has Air in and ventilation out is minimal but good!

Feeding BioBizz nuits! Anyone second my opinion or add to it???

Cheers guys!

Feed was Amsterdam indoors, using NFT system so compost aint much help. Roots were growing well out of rockwool B4 put them in. Gave them 1 ml per L of H20. Seems to be under control now, added more water to the tank and moved the light. I think the prob was i didnt mix the feed in the water good enough and the feed pretty much got pumped straight up to the plants. Changed spreader mat in it was full of feed almost the color of a tea bag. Think I was lucky they survived. I think next time I will use just water when they go in the system. Rookie error I guess most of us want fast growth first time and are a bit aggressive with the feed.

Cheers thanks for the info.
