They have been growing great and green as ever but I've been noticing the leafs curling over a bit and VERY little yellowing of two plants leave ends.

Its stupid miracle grow moisture control crap. (i plan to repot soon into good soil with perlite)

Under a 400W HPS (CoolTube) about 7 inches away, Temps are 77-84, Got a humidifier today and can keep humidity around 45-50.

Im in a VERY dry climate so the cups were drying out really fast, I normally water every 1-2 days , 25-35ML (not much....am I under watering?, I never water it so soil is completely wet or draining, just to keep the top moist...

Let me know what ya think , I just watered them really good so we'll see if they pop right back up..

That is some funky looking growth! You are under watering. I would suggest cutting a hole in the bottom of those cups so you have run off, and then watering with enough so there is water run off at the bottom, then wait 48 hours or until the soil is mostly dry again, repeat. And you will want a dehumidifier not a humidifier in about a month.

There are holes but never have any water coming out,I dont water them enough. And the soil is SHIT.

I just watered them really throughly so I guess ill check in the morning, I should transplant pretty soon to my perlite/soil/worm castings (bigger pots) soon as they dry out this time eh?

FUCKING MIRACLE GROW

Water em till it comes out the bottom. Wait till completely dry...repeat. Humidity is fine, don't mess with it. Get yourself some organic nutes and you're all set. :headbange

Edit: nice grow Microwido

Same thing happening , I also transplanted into bigger pots with Scotts Premium Potting Soil Mix (I think it has some nutes in it, but that shouldnt be a major factor would it be?>) , They are growing but leaves are still drooping. Maybe seen one freckle of a yellowish spot thats it though.

I watered them very good when I transplanted them (its been about 18 hours since transplant)

i would say its underwatering, OR over watering.

if you are sure you watered well, you just have to be patient and make sure the soil drys out now before giving them up.
best of luck!
 
I started 4 seeds, repotted them into there own 2L pepsi bottle, i had all the corners at the bottom cut off, now when ever i water, i make sure water comes out the bottom. Im also using some shitty soil, from Walmart, bought some Flora Nova grow and a Flora Nova Bloom liquid nuetrient. There now 2 weeks old and there under 2 Flours, ones a grow tube and they others a plan old flour, looking very nice also.


ANSWER: Water those bitches till they leak.

They are doing better, adapting to there new pots very well, They have been in the new pots for 2 days and already lifting there leaves.

I think I lost 1 or 2 transplanting , They were crap root balls but I dont care I only plan on flowering 2 or 3. You can tell by the pics which ones are kinda shitty, Who knows they might pull through.
