Hi Kp My plants have been in flowering for 3-1/2 wks.The temp is 78 to 83 with the fan running all the time.I use the GH 3part with diamond nectar.The nutr are weak at a 1/4 of what they say to use.The ppms at feeding are 1100 and Ph 6.1. I feed them and let it dry out and water 2 times let it dry out and then feed.Its been 3 or 4days between watering.What gets me is the run off,PH in 6.1 and run off is 6.7.PPMs 1100 going in and 1790 run off.I flush the one out with 5gals.plan water PH at 6.2.The pots are 10 liters.I'am using distilled water.The top leaves are cruling under and very narrow.The other plant on its top is starting to do the same curling alittle.Thanks for stopping by to help me out. PEACE :joint:

i think your plants are starving. gh is great stuff, but does not last long in soil, one watering basically flushes it all out. i recommend that you use your nutes according to label (gh is 1tsp per gallon grow, 2tsp per gallon micro (mix this in first), and 3tsp per gallon bloom), and adjust your schedule to feed-feed-water-repeat.

the leaves are clawing. this is probably from lack of nutes, but you generally see this with high temps. some sativas show the claw when they become deficient in nitrogen.

so, yeah; up your nutes, feed more often, give it seven days, and bring out some pix.

Hiya Tokecrazy

What's the ppm and ph of your base water with no nutrients added? How are you adjusting ph?

Hiya Tokecrazy

Have you been using distilled water all the way through your grow? Any reason you use distilled water? Is your tap water particularly bad? Can you do a ph and ec reading of your plain tap water?

Thanks all for the help.KP I did followed what you said and up the nutr.One plant has recovered and the other is recovering slowly but it's coming back.I also added another fan in the closet,one up high and one down on the floor,and this helped lower the temps 2 or 3 degrees.But the temps were no higher than 81 degrees.Now they stay at 79 degrees. Thanks a bunch.PEACE
