Some of my leaves have started to curl down does anyone know what the problem might be ? i am using a 600w hps at about 16" above top of plants. The plant on the first pic seems to be effected more than the others take a look. any advice on what it could be ? i nuted them about 3 days ago so not sure if it could be the start of nute burn or not.

i have been using a Soil Moisture Meter but every 2 to 3 days. Should i feed nutes every watering or every other time i water them ?

I have added 20ml to 10ltr of water of these nutes http://www.plant-magic.co.uk/products/oldtimer.html the grow nutes.

also added the recommend ammount for bio-silicon: http://www.plant-magic.co.uk/products/bio-silicon.html it says on the intructions drench does that mean mixed in with the water or spayed over the plant ?

I dont see any nut burn or nut def so congrats on that :P i would only suggest get some ph down and drop your water to about 6 ph and water her every 4 days and stop adding ph down till u get your soil to ph of around 6.5 :)

yea your pH is a bit high... 6.5 is optimal... with soil I would water, water, then feed... i use coco coir now so I feed with every watering...

ok thanks, could you recommend a good ph tester for testing my water before feeding, i dont think the soil test kit will work with just water.
