Plant tips curling upwards and downwards

Hello!
im growing in soil and mostly outside but I have a tent I put it in at night so I can give it longer light and hopefully protect from bugs etc.
Well some of the leaf tips started pointing down so I was thinking too much nutes so I just started watering it with phd water and not adding anything. Now some of the leaves are pointing up? Do they look okay? Or what should I do/ look into?
thank you so much!

Think about how much nutrients is in your soil, and maybe let the plant use those up before adding any nutes to your watering. They look fine right now. But it could be the start of too much nutes. Stick with plane water for a while.

okay thank you! I’ll just keep watering with plane water. I just repotted and had to add a lot more soil, so I should wait till leaves are straight to add more nutes ( I just started bloom stage last night)

You've got no signs of anything to worry about. The leaves sticking straight out and flat like that is a very good sign, and it shows your watering schedule is spot on.

When you start to see the bottom leaves turn a bland yellow, that's the early stages of Nitrogen deficiency, and is your cue to start feeding. Always pH the water/nutrient solution after it's been mixed.

great thank you! Do you think I should wait a couple more waterings to add the nutes back into the mix?
