Hey im growing lemon skunk atm, along with 2 WW's. I'm on day 41 of flowering and my lemon skunk who is in a home-made pot has curling/droopy semi-crispy fan leaves. There is no nutrient burn that is visible on my plant but one problem is i tied down my plant(LST) about 2 weeks into flowering to control its height. My pot is also home-made so maybe there isn't enough water drainage? My White widows are flawlessy healthy so its maybe its the fox farm nutrients that are too strong for lemon skunk

Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllpppppppppp, heres the pics.

looks fine, just looks over watered
Is the plant taller than the light? Ive notice this happen to plants that stretched above my lights. Is there any leaf curl where the plant is getting sufficient light?

I had this problem but not in this extent last summer.The main problem in my situation was high temperature and then as Hymem mentioned lamp position plays a role.You see the problem in fan leaves since they are more prone to heat problems.

yeah my temps have been known to jump above 84 sometimes and i have tried to flush it out before but im thinking it didnt help because my pot was homemade and doesnt drain all that well, and after i added more holes nothing happened still. I think this is also haulting bud development, as you can see in the pics:wall:

Just get your basics down and you should be ok. Drainage is important next grow add perlite and heat is a major issue keep it around 75 if possible. My Skunk #1 did not do well in heat at all. And it really effected my top colas.

Yeah my soil is an 80/20 mix of ocean forest and perlite, plenty of drainage throughout the soil, just not enough room in the pot for the water to drain out of it im thinking, saturating the lower part of the pot.....maybe.

I think you're right about the difference in nute requirements between the two strains. That's a sign of overfert, and could very well be the strain type causing it. I have three strains, and one of them requires alot more nutes than the other two, or it turns yellow as hell.

I think poor drainage and overnute/water. Heat stress usually shows as the leaf edges turning up, not down.

I take PVC pipe and make a square out of it with elbow pieces and then set pots on them so they drain all out then I use a shop vac to suck out old water.
