Hey gypsy, is that leaf curl from overwatering or lockout? I had that happen on a batch and I am still not sure what it was. I am thinking lockout though because I think I let the PH go up a lil high for too long.

THANK YOU!!!!

You are the first person to say something in a way of trying to help me!!!

Everyone likes the pics, but no one steps in and says shit about the grow itself...lol..

THANK YOU!!!

I don;t really know

I have the same strain, on the same res, but under a MH, instead of HPS and it has ZERO curl...lol...

SO I am not sure...

I would guess it's pH related since I have had a bit of issues with FF making it drop like a bomb daily...

I'll check if I can find the pics for you to see...

:joint::peace:

For the record, the tray that had the "curl", I had 8 Poison Kush and 1 OG, the OG didn't curl at all. So obviously it is going to depend on the particular plant, but I could only guess it was from lockout because nothing else made sense. Now that I have put a few strains through the mix I am finally settling down on a few so won't have to mix batches for long, so plant specific nutrient needs will be easier to determine.

Very interesting that it seems to be light based on your setup. I wonder what that is. Mine was under the same HPS for whole time, but I had a batch of poisons go through that looked fantastic 2 weeks prior. Rawr, I don't like these kinds of mysteries, I don't want it to happen again.

i freakin' love it.....i had light leak issues in the begining that lead to those big fuckers that are too big. :cuss:
but now all the light leaks are plugged up and it will make you fall down dizzy when the lights go out now:blsmoke:.
so .....i think this system dont fuck around in veg....and that its a bad idea to do it. but the single run of the new ones will be the first batch to be under prime conditions in the op......looking very forward to seeing them in action. i took out the trays exept for the moms.
i put a 1k on a light mover and love it....but the temps are staying at 80 now....but breezy as hell. humidity 47ish. i'm gonna swap out the 1k for the 600 cause i like my temps to be in the 70's.
forgot to hand feed the big moms on the floor that i'm flowering last night and man were they drooping.....oops.

anyway....rambling.
