Is tht rockwool?
If so pH should be 5.2-5.8.
It looks like pH is off.

Try a different medium.
I like soil.
Hydro is good too.
Rockwool is more for rooting clones etc.

I see your exhaust fan there but, do you have a fan blowing at the plant? A good breeze should make the stem strong enough to stand up on it's own. You have slight heat stress too. Looks better though.

hi
thanks for reading and helping me on this one

this is an intake fan and its blowing pretty strong on the plant so its shaking all the time
the exhaust hole is right in front of the fan so i got 2 in 1 )))

the leafs is a bit "curly" if u can see
and the lower leafs is a bit dryed and yellow
i dont understand why they are not growing bigger the plant is just keep the new ones coming but they are all of the same size

is it a also a heat stress?
the 25w CFL bulbs are about 4 cm away from the top
and the termometer shows about 28C under the direct light on the top of the plant
and 26C at the bottom

please post some more comments
i got only one seed left (((

peace

i have my clones that have been rooted for a week. I started adding nutrients once i saw the roots drop down. The ppm is at 600. The plants seem to be liking it so i'd say 20% the nute plan should be perfect at this stage. As the roots grow, you can use more nutes.

ok thanks man
cant wait to see the results of feeding

no one seems to be worried by the curly shape of the leafs
maybe its only my noob paranoya
hope so

i have one more idea of what can be wrong - i use acid as a ph down
(acid that goes into the car battery)
one dude did a grow with it and he said its fine

if i use it to often to drop a ph can it cause some damage or something?
(i just bought an aquarium ph up and ph down i think they will do better)
maybe i even flush and make a new water
but im afraid to do it untill i get a ph lock that was out of stock today

i'm not positive whether battery acid works or not but i would not use that for my girls. Definitely use that aquarium ph kit. If you can get to a hydro store, buy the ph up and down in gallon jugs and you'll be set.
