I have 4 Plants going, seeds were received free with a Herbies order. They are 2x Kerala x Skunk#1 and 2x Green Love Potion. This plant in the pic is the Green Love potion. I was gonna use a 600w HPS the whole grow, but I forgot I'd need T5's or something for seedlings. So I purchased 1 T5 24w 6500k Bulb, and the hydroponics store guy said thats all I'd need but I added 3 26w 6500k CFL's just in case. I water every day, just recently started spraying the plants with FloraDuo Two part nutrients. The leaf on this GLP is starting to curve / curl on the sides. What's causing this? And is this Lighting set-up Sufficient for 4 plants?

They are in Styrofoam cups thats why I find myself watering often.

When you spray the plant and the moisture evaporates can cause the twisting and if your watering every day may be slightly over watered if curling but looks fine to me if your spraying it spray before the dark period if you have one so the light won't evaporate it as fast and I'd walk your 600w hps on it if it's a dual spectrum Wich most are keep it bout 2 foot away tho they will live it

My HPS is just a regular hps. XtraSun Ballast, and a regular 600w HPS bulb. They were curling before I started spraying them, I was thinking maybe over watering, but I'm still not sure. I thought I should wait till 3 weeks to switch to HPS, right now that plant is 8 days old.

Just thought as well if has only just started and you haven't increased water atall could be that it's root bound looks fairly small that cup I was surprised on my first grow how quickly the roots grow in first few weeks if that's a cup the roots will hit the bottom within a week

You didn't need to make all of those posts. That's just trying to get your post count up, you coulda said all that in one post. Thank you for your help and advice though, I will keep this thread updated. I would like someone elses opinion on the matter though.
