Hi all,

I've got 6 young plants in pots outside, for some reason 4 have gone weird like the leaves feel dry / crispy and they are drooping quite a bit / bending inwards. I really dont understand why, it's been about a week or so now. I've let them dry out and ive given water, I've even reported one, no change.

What else could it be? The PH Is between 6,1 - 6,5 when I water and dont use any chemicals at mo. Temp outside approx 25, not sure what humidity is, maybe 60rh.

Thanks

They look good to me. My plants will look similar like that when they need water and when I move them from inside to outside under mh light. Whats the moisture of that soil now?

There have been aphids I think, they were like little yellow bugs and some were little black flies, but I keep spraying them with a special spray and havent seen anymore signs of them, but there were a few bites at the begining. There are a lot of random bugs flying around, and normal spiders on leep getting on them, I've just looked this morning and theres a bug that looks similar to a ladybug and has laid about 10 eggs on the plant! This plant looks healthy though some how.

What's the nutella trick?

The top of the soil is pretty dry but if I dig down about 1cm it's still pretty humid, they just look like something is wrong with them

Yes giving a good amount of water, like now the soil is bone dry at top, pretty dry half way down too, so I'll give it some water but going from previous times it wont change

Maybe too much water? Are you letting the pots really dry out? How often are you watering? Pots have good drainage? Maybe try adding more holes around the sides at the bottom of the pots. Have you fed them? What type of soil?what are the temps going down to at night?
