Ok so people have told me that the reason my plant leaves are curling is because of over feeding / watering.

Here is my feed schedule. Tomorrow is the first day of week 5, what nutes would you advise me to skip? and how long for?? Just to let people know, i vegged for 5 weeks not 2 and then went into flowering.

i'd get yourself a meter and measure the ppm's of your solution before feeding. the dosage charts from most nutrient companies run way to hot. for example, they say they want you at 1000ppm and give you the dosages for it. then when you mix the nutes it comes out to 1800ppm. i think that might be your problem. try running your nutes at 50% for a week or 2. also, i would just feed pH balanced water the next 2 times. not flush but at least use up some of those nutes in the soil.

every sentence of that is good advice. make sure you're getting run off every time you water. your pic looks like nitrogen toxicity, classic eagle claw. ca caw!

Thanks for all of the advice guys. I am using 10L potts im going to get myself a ppm meter. But until then im going to follow 'nuglets' advice and just feed ph balanced water for the next to feeds.

also, whan you mix your nutes let them sit out for 30-60 minutes. the pH will actually creep on them so you don't want to adjust it immediately. mix your nutes and let them sit. then come back and adjust the pH. good luck man.

Im gonna say the soil ph is out of wack which caused lockout. That may cause a Mag deficiency. The lockout doesnt allow water uptake so the soil stays to moist to long chocking the air mixture in the soil causing roots to be smoothered or O2 deprivied. My suggestion get the soil phed and the run off. Use a clearing solution in ph correct water every 3 days until correct ph run off and leaves seem to respond up.

it aint soil its coco....coco is different from soil....you shouldnt feed water only as coco doesnt retain nutes......... .....ph 5.5-5.8................

i grow in coco.......i never use just water...........i feed at 5ml per litre 5.5-5.8 ph........if you feel the need to cut down on nutes just give a lower dose like 3-4ml per litre and see how she goes........coco only has the nutes you provide so thats why i never give just plain water..........i also add epsom salts to make sure the coco doesnt starve the plant of magnesium..
