Alright. Where am I going wrong. 5 Weeks in and it's time to ask.

I think I may be overwatering. Heavy pots, every 2-3 day water cycle, super moist and cold about 3 inches- down. Yellowing mushy and curling sides of newer leaves.

Just a wild guess, but the last two pictures look like a combination of things. Lights too hot and low humidity. The reason I say that is the last 2 pictures look like mine. It was warn inside but cold outside. Inside the RH was 16% and the warm air from the central heat blowing over them caused tacoing and dried them up.

That's just a thought.

I definitely think that could play a role, though the lights are a bit higher than they probably should be at 20" above (the recommendation) though it is cold outside and hotter in there. The only thing is that my humidity is pretty high at 60-65% inside the tent. Outside the tent were at 80% because of the storm but normally 40%

Then I was wrong. I wondered about that because of only those two pictures looked that way.

Don’t overthink some “ blemishes “ or minor leaf curl.
Generally they look pretty good .

What are your temps in tent ?

And as @cannabiscrusader mentioned- raise those pots off floor - simple little crate . Space watering out wider - thinking plant needs to transpire/ roots are cold hence less vigor and longer time moisture trapped. If running LED - you should try to be around 80° or so. Cooler temps at rootzone will crawl the growth and excessive watering stifles the roots.

Totally correctable. Also don’t hover over slight leaf issues - its a plant - many will outgrow it.

I also use buckets and buckets cut to desired hight. I've cut bottoms from old buckets to use as drain pans.

Improvise, addapt, overcome!
I got more, we could do a whole thread on this. :p

Is there such a thing as an old bucket? How many years does it take to consider it retired?

Good note thank you, I am getting my temps up to closer to 80• and going to lift it with some foam or whatever crates I can find. Fortunately leaves are already bounding back to shape but only after taking all these steps! Probably wont water for a few days until everything feels light and quite a bit drier
