Thanks Tika, I haven't considered soil temperature, that's pretty interesting. With your Jock Horror, what was causing the heat? Was it warm to the touch, like feeling a forehead for fever? My closet temp is in the low 70's/high 60s at night.
If its not the lights aren't heating up the soil, I wonder if the compost in the soil is still fermenting and generating heat in the bag. That would be weird.
These girls are in 1 gallon smart pots, and the feel the same temperature to the touch.I also shared a little in a post lower down how the leaves drooped WAY down right after watering. The soil was pretty dry, and the bottom of the bag felt almost dry. I only watered until I got the slightest bit of runoff. Before the water, the leaves looked the happiest I had seem them, but still crinkly, like fried basil leaves. And then saaaaaaag....
Thanks Nebula for pointing out that page again. I was hunting through the leaf problems and hadn't gotten to the root problems sections yet, she totally looks like the one in the red cup half way down the page!
So even though I've been poking around GWE for about 6 months now, and have just about completed my first grow, I can still over-water with the best of them!
So I'll back off on how much I give at a time, maybe even only after she starts drooping like a normal, dehydrated plant. Which would be more fascinating? Seeing her grow out of this and explode into classic sativa style, or growing big, and staying weird and crinkly.
