What is going on

[andrewdishner]

my leaves are curling in and facing up to the sky. The leaves feel dry and the edges feel crisp. What is happening? Heat?

Hi, I'm thinking two possibilities.

1- What is the temperature like in your grow area? Also, what type of light are you using and how far away is it? (Possible heat problem)
2 - It looks like you are growing via Hydro. Have you looked at the roots lately? It looks like it could possibly be a root problem.

My guess is heat/light overstress

Being a hydro guy, you are probably already keeping a good eye on PH and your water level. Tell us about your environment, heat,, light, air movement.

I'm using led lights they are 30 inches away. The temp is 85. I was replacing the water last night and the roots may have been roughed up a bit. My hand touched them and they contacted the plastic bin. The ph is 6 and I'm using a little more than half of the recommended amount of nutrients.

Everything sounds good except the temperature. Any hope of getting that down in the mid 70's?

what's the wattage (true wattage if you know it) of the lights? i've found that since there's a lot of variation in manufacturing of LEDs they have to be treated almost individually when it comes to general recommendations/common wisdom....so i have found that 30" is fine for one of my lights but too much for a different one, which i concluded is bc they are different brands...
