on time is between 72 and 77.7 with 40% humidity.
my guess is its the lights. they was around a ft and a half from the top of my tallest girl. moved it about 8inchs higher from the tallest. hopefully this helps
Heat stress from the lights will cause the leaf edges to curl up, not down. probaly just a bit of N shock from the transplant into the OF. Just water for a couple of weeks, should be fine. May have even gotten a big charge of Nitrogen from the MG just before transplant.

Clawing, curling under is a sign of Nitrogen toxicity.
thats strange. I transplanted them on the 15th in ffof. they were starting to yellow before i transplanted them, my guess is the MG was starting to burn them. But since transplanting they have been doing just fine until i started noticing a couple of leaves that looked kinda dumb. So idk, their not yellowing anymore since ive transplanted them but was concerned about the curling under leaves.

10-14 days is average but dependant on how old they are/how long vegged. A plant even still in veg 18/6 usually show preflowers at about week 6. Plants 12/12 from seed sometimes takes a month or so to show sex. Photoperiod or not they still have to become sexually mature.

They are a little neon green colored, so nitrogen is going to be needed.

Also, the leafs that had the curling effect, by chance where they next to that tin foil you got hanging up? Tin foil creates hot spots, so even if your temp readings are in check, it could be concentrating heat in areas due to the tin foil, thus causing heat stress on only certain areas. Try mylar next round or white paint.

And don't beat yourself AT ALL. Those babies look really healthy.

Light green/neon green, same difference.

It's like those yellow golf balls that some people call green golf balls. Each his own. :)

True they are slightly bright green/neon greenish colour to em. so hit them with some ff grow big? at 1/4 strength?
