the other day my 2 of my plants got burned a little by my cfl's they started to touch them, i raised them, and then the leaves seemed to renew them selves and pick back up but then next day they turned brown, and on leave is drooped again, they seem a little "hard" not soft anymore
also some of the ends of the leaves are now starting to curl upwards
just the ends, like they are folding up

whats going on with these plants? am i doing something wrong?
i'm in a 3x3x5 setup
with 11CFL's
4 27w veg lights, 6 23watt flower lights and 1 42 watt flower cfl
so total add up is 288 watts of cfl bulbs.
so i'm definitely getting enough light
i also have all the walls covered in mylar and fans circulating the air around.

am i not watering enough? am i watering to much? are the lights to close? are they to far now that is making them curl up just the ends of leaves.

or is it an issue with nutes? i haven't given them any nutes yet, just plain water. they are in ox farm ocean forest,they are 15 days old. so don't need extra nutes yet.
what do you all think?

leaves curling up may be heat stress....get a fan blowing on them.

Your box is similar to mine it sounds like. I started with cfl's but found that a 150 HPS runs cooler in there than all of the cfl's, and you get more lumens. Got the light set up from HTG for $88 delivered. Hope this may help you in some way
