  1. So I have a few plants this is my first time cultivating and I just wana know if what I got going is ok. My main concern is the tips of my leaves are curling down I cut back the water but there still doin it. I have a good room setup with a 1000watt mh and two 600 watt hps they are in fox farms soil with gold label hydro corn layers its been on a even npk of 1-1-1 and then a boost about once a week of 4-1-2 the stems are a little bigger than a sharpie is round there only about 3 and a half maybe 4 weeks old any advice on things to do or to stop doing would be appreciated thanks

  2. Are you letting the soil get dry at least 2" down? If not, you're probably overwatering.
     
  3. Ya I cut back to every other day and it seems to have helped a little but they still just curl a little down right at the tips

  4. Curled tips like that are usually a sign of over-fert. Not sure your feeding schedule but cut back on the mutes for a while.
     
  5. Yea it's prob over fert. During the veg stage it's very easy to over fert. When I first started I would always have small issues here and there with my plants and I would follow a fert schedule of every 3rd watering. I changed it to every 4th watering and havnt had an issue since. But remember every strain reacts differently to pretty much everything. I grew a afghan that I could damn near fertilize every damn day and that tough bitch would never show damage. I've had strains that no matter how light I fert she would show some signs of nute burn. These plants can drive a grower nuts sometimes.
