Im growing these indoors. In soiless medium. First time growing.(indoors) Using Cutting Edge Solutions Nutes. Water them once a day.. 10ml grow, 5ml micro, 5ml bloom. per gallon. Vegetative stage. Their about 3weeks old from seeds. Have them for 18on 6off. Under t5 lights. Lights are about 10in. from the tops. Temp. stay at 65f.-70f. during on hours, and 60f. during off hours. Humidity stays around 50%. I use distilled water to mist them(foliage). I also mix the nutes with the distilled water and i get a pH of around 6.5. Im using the drops/color to test the pH. I havent bought a ppm meter cuz i cant afford one right now. I think this is all the info. They are about 5in. tall. Some of them i think they got nute burned cuz the tips of the leaves look brown. Also, the leaves started to get a little yellowish. On the other plant the leaves started to twist and some leaves have the tips pointed up. I would really appreciate any help from the pros and also thanx for reading.ANTONIO'S 075.jpgANTONIO'S 065.jpgANTONIO'S 071.jpgANTONIO'S 084.jpgANTONIO'S 088.jpgANTONIO'S 089.jpgANTONIO'S 082.jpg

My first time growing indoors too. Im using soiless mediums but im going hydroponics, started seeds about 3 weeks ago and my plants are about the same size as yours. I think that my plants are are the end stages of seedlings going into veg mode.(next week) Im using root 66 at 1/2 strength, and organic N They look kinda like yours but my leafs are not curling under my 150hps lights. under my t5 light my plants are curling like yours.Since you use distilled water it has a low ppm of about 8( im using distilled and rev. os for my water supply). im just taking a guess but i think that your nute sol. is a lil high for how young your plants are.Instead of watering them w/ nute everday try every other day 1/2 sol. Another cause for the tips could be that your mist on the leafs is cold and your lights are hot so the lil droplets are stayin on the tops. i have a mister and 1 night i fell asleep and direct cold mist got pumped on the leaves of my plants and the droplets turned lil spots. I dunno just a guess, good luck.

Yea I noticed it was too much nute so i layed it off for right now. I just water them with distilled water at room temp. and i also tryed flushing them when i noticed the tips burned. I also mist them with room temp. using distilled water. I think I need to lower the pH on the water but I have to go buy the stuff. Nice to hear that they are about the same size as yours. I thought mine where growing slowly. I also have a hydroponic sysytem. flood tables. You shud show me sum of ur pics.
