Im not sure if they are even a problem but definatly need to be asked about.

They are 20 days into flowering. about 14-15 days with pistels showing. 400Hps. Iguana organic bloom + Kushie Kush. Ph is around 6. Soil. Clone. Master Kush

1st pic- random fan leaves are cuping up at margins, Is this overwatering/ underwatering?

2nd pic - Random smaller leaves are cupping downward like this. Same problem with watering or since they are lower leaves is it from lack of light?

3rd pic - They are in 3 gallon containers. Transplanted from 4" cubes at start of 12/12. The roots are starting to show in the drain holes. Should I transplant again or leave it for the remainder of the time?

Also, ive seen some gnats around. And in todays run-off I found gnat larvae in one of the pans. Looked as if they were dead. I try to let the soil dry as much as possible to help prevent issues like this but is there anything I can do while in flowering for gnats or even preventing aphids or S.M. coming in? I read in M.J. Garden Saver (Book) that garlic helps but doesnt say how to apply.

Any help out there

Is that square section of the pot always exposed to light? You don't want the roots to be exposed.

And the curling just looks like slight under or over watering, not bad though, mine just went through that for a couple days, nothing to worry about :P

THe holes are not directly in the light but the light abiance is upon it. Its the drainage holes in the container, and the dish underneath is for run off. I dont know if i can cover these for the most part they will always have light around them.

Other than the above mentioned things they look pretty good to me!!

As to the gnats --- Get you some "goGnats" from HydroOrganics. It's a natural non-poison pesticide that won't fuck up your smoke and really does a number on gnats, thrips, white flies, and mites. If you can't find it locally I know it can be ordered from www.AtlantisHydroponics.com. I had to get some because I suddenly developed a white fly infestation, but it killed the shit out of 'em and I haven't seen any bugs other than the occassional ant since then --- and it had NO adverse effects on my plants.
Good luck dude!!!

Good post
I accept with information: It's a natural non-poison pesticide that won't fuck up your smoke and really does a number on gnats, thrips, white flies, and mites.

(1st pic) ...I'd say heat/light stress (too hot, too cold) or they could be trying to get light... check out this site to view a photo gallery for plant abuse > http://www.ganjaguerrilla.net/

(2nd pic) ...I'm think'n that she isn't get'n enough light downthere.

(3rd pic) ...you are supposed to have roots at the bottom of your pot...your pot bound when your roots have grown over 1/2 the way up the side of the pot. (from the bottom to the center) You will have to pull the plant out of the pot to view this. Your leaves will do a crazy droop thing if your seriously needing transplanted due to growth...however, I've grown plants well over 4 feet tall in 3 gallon pots with no signs of pot bound-ness...a good rule of thumb is to have a gallon of soil for every foot of height the plant will grow...good luck.

Whats up bro looking good

you definitely got soggy soil down at the bottom of that pot causing that.

Idk How much room you got but a would build a planter box and put a couple bags of fox farm of in there and transplant

1) the pot is filled with roots they could use more soil

2) the root soil at the bottom of the pot could take weeks to dry out by that time the top soil is drying out to much

3) make sure you have quite a bit bigger planter and just stick them all in the planter with plenty of new soil. remove any soggy soil you can without damaging roots

4)Because the soil you are going to is better there will be no shock and only improvements.

hope this helps bro
