If you're talkig about some of the twisted leaves, if it's not bugs (and it doesn't appear to be), that's normally a reaction to fertilizer causing rapid growth, it should clear up on it's own.

Thanks for the reply. So nothing to worry about then? First time doing outdoors and never seen that before haha I find the odd cicada on them but they don't do much and there seems to be a bird patrolling the area and gets alot of them

Thank mate I was also wondering if I ph rain water? I've been watering my plants with rainwater for the last month or 2. I never PhD it because I assumed it would be okay (when i at nutes to the mix i ph to 6.5). I tested it yesterday and it's around 5.0ph, i thought it would be fine considering if it was to actually rain on them i wouldnt be able to change the ph but now questioning whether thats too low and i should add ph up?

Although rain is ph 4-5 it has very little buffering capacity. So it’s not going to make your mix acidic and wouldn’t bother to get the pH right with just water. Can pH your feeds tho
