this plant is about 2 1/2 weeks old it is sensei star. I am using a 430 hps and it is about 20 inches above the plants. The temp usually fluctuates between 80-85 degrees and the humidity is around 27. This is my first time and it looks to me like the leaves are starting to curl upward. I have not given it any nutes yet. The leaves also seem be changing a darker green. Is there something wrong or is this normal? Sorry the picture is not great quality, in the pic they kinda look yellow they are not it the crappy quality of my phone. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I am pretty sure that i figured out the problem. I had an ozone generator right in the closet. I turned it off as soon as i noticed the withering and will be moving it out of there, it was only on for a couple hours so i am hoping i caught it on time. I read in the bible that ozone will cause pretty much all the problems i noticed, rookie mistake. I am learning as i am going. Is there anything i can do to bring them back to the regular growing rate?

the upward leaf curl could also be heat stress. Your temps are a little high. do you have air circulation in your grow area / a fan blowing on your plants?

Do the hand test at the top of your canopy while your light is on. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for your plants

I thought that too, i put my hand under there and it did not seem too intense to me. I had a fan in there, but just seemed to harsh for the plants so i put a regular rotating fan on low a couple feet in front of the door. The temp is bouncing bettween 75-78.
