curling leaves?

[chrones]

this is a white widow about a month into flowering and for the last 2 weeks the tips of the upper fan leaves started to curl and i cant figure it out i am using fox farm big bloom and watering every other day and i have moved the lights up but i think its the temps they are 98 on 82 off

watering every other day....to much water, wait until soil drys out all the way and then water

How much of the big bloom are you using and how often?
I agree watering is a huge problem here; not to mention those temps have GOT to get down....... you have a temp meter in there? how do you know it's that hot in there?

Why are you watering her so much is it dry the next day or something? she is root bound; she needs a bigger pot...... you want 1 gallon size pot for every 12 in MINIMUM.

yeah they dry out really fast and i have a ditial thermomerter im happy with the humidity at 30% to 40% and i am using what the directions told me to use and i
use spring water from wally world that has a ph of 6.5 but i havent checked what it is after i add the big bloom but i dont know what i can do to solve the heat problem because ive tried my harest and no drop here is what it looks like now (mabey more fans?)

How is your grow room setup? If I think it's a closet like I see it is then you are going to have to have the heat channeled out of the room somehow... fans will help but not bring it down in the temps they need to be.

you either vent out of there into somewhere else or get an air conditioner if you have a window.. if not you will have to make a prop and get a drip pan to collect the water.
It's a pain when you have hot temps like that..... if you can't get them down you are going to keep having this issue...

For one the plant is using a little more water if the humidity is staying in the 30's and the plant is root bound needs a bigger pot. Bigger pot you will not need to water every other day.

Where is your grow room at? Closet in a room? you live in a house?

What wattage is your hps?

it is in like a closet and it is a 250w and i am trying to fidure out a way to vent out the air bu there are no vents in the closet

I had a booth closet grow and I had to vent into the water heater compartment and underneath our mobile home.. I Was growing in one long time ago and that was the only way we could get the temps down below 80's

WE took a dryer vent hose and hooked it up to a fan and sucked out the hot air.... negative air pressure is the only way I have grown by venting out the hot air into a different room but the fan was also hooked up into a carbon scrubber so no smell would get out while the air was being sucked out of the room.

If you like taje a picture of the area of your grow and I can see any ideas I may get or other people will get and help you out and see what we can get done.

ill try to get those pics up tomarrow but i did move the three WW into 1.5 gallon
pots and the ph of my water after adding nutes is 6.5 and i am think about venting into the attic just got to cut the hole thanks for the info stitch

 

[chrones]

they are still curling i have moved the light up and i am now venting into the wall
creating a negative pressure in the closet the temp doesn't hit 90 now but they are still curled

 

[MynameStitch]

They are going to curl somewhat still with those temps.. but how much bloom are you using now? and how big are they now with what size pot? You are having to water more often from those temps... there is no way you are going to get in the proper temps...... you will either have to take a decrease in yield or get some fluros and flower with those.....

they are in 1.5 gallon pots and yes i water every two to three days now and i am useing half strength and would putting the light on 10 hours help the temp nut would it effect the yeild?
