The edges on the leaves of one of my plants is curling in slightly. check out the attached pics.

If the edges curl upwards, it's generally either heat stress or magnesium deficiency. I really can't say from your HPS tinted pictures.

dude lets start with mag dif then move to nute burn and finish up with heat stress or burn...back off the nutes a bit and give some epsom slat or cal mag to help you mag dif. and get some ventilation going on in there

and a bit more info would be good also.

what are they in soil hydro. ventilation? light? lamp hieght to plants?

If it's heat stress, only the leaves close to the lamp should be concerned by the curl, primarily the bigger leaves. A (Mg) deficiency or overfert could show up anywhere (depending on what element causes the reaction), but often in lower, older leaves.

Hi rr14,

we really need mor info to give you a preciese answer. but the first thought would be heat stress and/or nute burn.

it all depends on the conditions in yur grow space. temps min max/ RH min max/ ferts and ph, how much ec, for how long. also what system are you uesing to grow with? hydro, coco or earth?

good luck
gm

I believe that it was heat stress. The nutes don't appear to be off. One night the temps got up to 85.6*. It hasn't happened since I started paying more attention to the temps again.
