Get some photos with the lights off but use your flash. You'll get more replies that way, plus most issues are identified by leaf color so it's tough to tell under most lights. Welcome buddy
upwards curling could be heat stress or root issues but it's tough to tell. Try ang get a few closeups of any plants that are particularly worrisome too.
what are your conditions? pH? Have you found the tutorials on gwe yet? Priceless...

Thanks for replying farmerjim, I will be taking some better photos later tonight. ph is ok temp fluctuates between 30-35 slightly colder in the night slightly higher through the day. On a 18-6 light schedule. They seem ok so far just the one in the top right. The top 2 are in 20 litre fabric pots with canna medium soil the rest are in 10 litre pots transplanted from 7 litre now in John Innes soil mixed with perlite. I water when ever the soil gets dry

Overwatering? Checkout the pic that talks about being planted in muddy soil...

Thanks for replying really appreciate the help, I’m struggling with controlling the temp at the moment might stick in another fan see if that helps. I will take some better pics after work tonight. Watered them today just water ph 6.5 as much as I can remember will get home and check again. Just worried at the cupping one it’s leafs are quite fat not like the rest and is slightly darker green then the rest.
The excitement the worry all the issues loving it at the moment (not the worry or issues) just hope I get a few grams to toak away lol

Checking on them frequently is ok you could better track issues when you run Into any but giving them way to much love could start causing you unwanted problem some times it's better to give them the space they need and give them what they need when they want it just stands for a great relationship.as for your post you got two solid people looking after you.the farmjim and starrums.

Like others say it would be easier to help with natural light photos. I don't use HID lighting but most growers use Metal Halide (MH) for veg. The plants need more blue light in veg and then flip to HPS which gives them the red for flowering. GL!4X4 Gorilla with Solar Storm 440 LED. Coco / perlite, 5 Gallon fabric containers. LST and scrog. Grows to date all Indica Dominant Hybrids

I noticed you have a lot in that small space and I think perhaps for their size the pots might be too large and they are not getting enough oxygen from the water. Are you allowing over run? If so on these small ones I don’t think you should be looking to overrun when watering, others might disagree.

Tones Your girls look fine mate. Had issues with heat. In veg the heat can rise in my veg tent to 26 with high humidity but that`s okay though I use only a 400MH. Where I really struggle is under 600HID`s. Temps are usually around 28C on average which is 3C more than I`d like.The way I found around it was a HID height of 20" and fans blowing across area between canopy and lights as well as around pots. Oscillating fans are better I believe than static as it facilitates oxygen/ CO2 exchange better.The only suggestion I would make is that when you pot up you alter you soil mix to 2/3 light mix compost like Biobizz and 1/3 perlite. Your soil looks `heavy` to me and with those type of pots you can get drainage issues compared to say smart pots/ fabric pots. air pots...You`re doing really well though and you should feel well happy with your achievements so far, mate. As they say; everythings looking rosey in the garden. Stay mellowLast edited by PaganRich; 08-22-2018, 12:34 PM.
