1000w Super Skunk and Royal Hashplant Leaves Curling Please Help

I have been a member of IC for quite some time, and have learned so much from the community. I originally was doing a very short crop SOG with afgooey with 0 veg time. I am now in a new location with a different setup. I currently have a 1000w MH 30in away from the garden with a regular open reflector. My room temps are constant low to mid 70's. I am waiting on an inline fan to use my sealed air cooled hood. Once I am ready I plan on adding my 400w MH and changing to a DWC. The Plants are a little over 3 weeks old. Last week I transplanted from 1ltr pots to the current 2.5gal. I am growing the Super Skunk, and Royal Hashplant from seed using Foxfarm Ocean Forest. I am using GH's three part newts Floro Grow/Micro/Bloom. I am noticing my leaves curling on the superskunk plants, but not so much on the Royalhash and I believe that its being caused by too much salt buildup from overnewting but I do not see any burning of the leaf tips. I made a mistake and gave them full strength newts for the first two waterings since the transplant, is this what is causing the curl? I am also noticing deep ridges on the new growth which someone told me was do to overnewting but I always thought that was how the leaves on the very new growth looked. I am new to growing my plants big, I am just beginning to see little preflower nubs but they are still indistinguishable. Unless I am told differently I plan on just flushing them with plain water to try and correct the problem. I am not quite sure the best method of flushing the soil. Do I use alot of water or just go for the regular 10% runoff? Any help would be greatly appreciated






Two tips on one finger never seen that before does that mean anything?

what ganzas said...air circulation-do you have an oscillating fan?-and make sure you're not over-watering.....don't flush your plants. i get leaves like that sometimes on dense plants when the leaves stack up on top of each other and don't get enough air movement. if you're over-watering it will make things worse. your plants look pretty good overall.

- webbed fan leaves - saw this on ortega and it seems to be genetic

looks like over watering to me. I use an extra airy mix to prevent this and the possible stem or root rot that can come along with this. It is 5 parts peat moss, two parts perlite, and just a handful of dolomite lime in each 5 gallon pot.

here are a few things that cause droopy leaves
over watering
under watering
heat / light power like end of 18 hrs of light cycle its common to have droppy leafs due to excessive power
air circulation
and last thing that can cause droopy leafs is root bound plants
