My leaves are droopy, and on a couple of the plants the leaves at the bottom are yellowing. I see a plant with curled up edges on the fan leaves. What gives?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

have you calibrated your pH meter lately?

my last pH meter almost screwed up the whole grow.

now i have a new one. start by calibrating all of your meters, then troubleshoot. you need to know where you are before adjusting anything.

a picture would really help.

Your Ph is to high and this is causeing lock up, some nutes are to avaliable and some not at all...

Drop your PH down to 5.5 and use some root juice in the next res mix, this should bring them around..

Also your ppm and EC are to low for optimal growth, raise them up...

Well, I have some leaves with curling edges too but not certain its from heat stress or not. BOG

What else causes lengthwise edge curling? PH?

I tend to run on the alkaline side of perfect.

a lock out of N can cause an overdose of P and K.

to much K can make leafs curl upward..

my 2 cents...

Thanks so very much for all of your help.

Growdoc: I lowered my ph to 5.5, what should my ppm's and ec read?
