Try rubbing some neem oil on the stems that works well for a lot of different pests

I'm about 95% sure don't have any pests only way would have any of there microscopic or a borer and I've already eliminated it being a borer... Has to be some sort of fungus/ root rot combo? Well treating with peroxide seems to be stopping it actually

Are you sure it's heat stress??? Like I said: Temps are around 75 degrees F. and the plant is sativa dominant which I thought to be tolerant of greater heat conditions in the first place.

almost positive my man. the ambient temp isnt always the same as the canopys temp

Adding a layer of play sand onto your top soil can really slow those fungus gnats down.
It can be a benefit to your crop as well!

Do you know of any other possible causes? I added a fan to the blow around the heat near the canopy area but I still see the new growth starting to cup as well. Could it be humidity or root problems?

I read that oily plants like sand to grow in. The problem is: if it is calcareous, it will create a ph imbalance. For this method I only meant to suggest adding about 2 cups of coarse sand spread evenly around the top of the soil so that it would cut the bodies of the insects and their larvae. Some people do use sand as a medium though.

not for growing pot.. sand is never an option as a medium. the sand wont cut the insets or larva it mainly smothers them and also your soil. if your humidity is around 50-60 in veg or even 40-60 you can eliminate that, root problems wont really cause that unless theyre getting dried out and effecting the plant that way if thats not the issue you can cross that off, do you have it vented? just a fan isnt enough you need air coming in and pushing the hot out. and not everytime will a leaf come out flat when its a new leaf forming do you have a pic? may be normal new growth

Oh I meant they use a mixture combined with sand... haha
My humidity was dropping a lot but i got a humidifier. Now i keep it around 50-60% always and yeah i have the room vented out a 4 inch duct and fan. maybe, i thought, it was that i was overwatering or something cause the plant is still small so right now i'm letting the soil dry out a bit. I also found brown spot on one of the leaves, do you know what that is?
