    Twisting at the base of the leaves or the base of the plant? Are all the leaves doing this?
    Any difference in color? What type of lights are you using and how far away are they? I am watching CSI and stoned hehe...Need more details :)

    Hey DownUnder
    Tell us your fertilizing schedule, type of lights, and other conditions. If the leaves are twisting and are green and healthy looking, I would not worry about it. Sometimes the leaves grow out deformed. On the other hand, if they are starting to brown then you have a problem. Answer the above questions and we can better figure it out.

    i had that happen recently as well. I atributed it to high ph. I lowered the ph and now all is well. though im using hydro, it seems similar as your ph is also high. do whatever it takes to get your ph as close to 6.5 and you ought to see improvements. if you are also using hydro, then maintain a 5.5 ph at all times. you may have to adjust it twice a day, depending on your water and ferts.

    HIGH All, stop if your feeding them.....just too young and it sounds like your leaves are starting to react to it...just water it next time when your watering schedule is.
