Sounds to me like they are too close to the lights. Try giving them more space or increase your ventilation. I like to use a small fan between the top of the canopy and the lights.

Ideally, canopy level temps should stay at or below 85F.

ok ill raise them but does it have anything to do with under feeding or over feeding, all tips curling up

If the entire leaf is curling up, it's usually from being too close to the light.

If just the very tips are curling up/twisting and dying, it's probably nutrient burn.

I thought you originally meant the entire leaf was curling. A pic would help. If it is nutrient burn, since you are doing flood and drain, cut back on the ppms and not the flood schedule.
