Stunted leaves
gorntstarted grow question 5y ago
One of my plants is having a hard time - it's technically growing as fast as the others but it's leaves are half the size, slight discolouration and cupping. I suspect Mg, PH or overwatering may be the issue. All variables for each plant are exactly the same.

My first guess is overwatering. If they are too wet, the plant has no reason to develop a strong root system. You need to mimic competition in the wild by forcing them to develop strong root systems. You almost need to dehydrate them.

I agree with 8thChevron. Looks like over watering to me. Let them get to the brink of droop and even a little under watering is better than overwatering as long as you catch it quickly. Overwatering can also lead to pH fluctuations, it promotes anaerobic bacterias (the bad kind) and creates an ideal environment for pests like fungus gnats to reproduce. Good luck and happy growing!

Trying to narrow down cause of twisted/incomplete new growth with strange texture and discoloration of lower leaves.2 plants in 0.5L pots in BioBizz AllMix. Using tap water. Both have twisted/incomplete new growth with strange texture and discoloration on some lower leaves. Suspicion: 1. Very soft water-> CalMag deficiency. 2. Low humidity ~25-35%. 3 Need to pot up (planned to do it this week)

Upper leaves are yellow and not smoothI noticed leaves on top are closing and today are yellowish. Older plant aren’t stretching more, I thought it’s too much light or too hot but it’s kinda weird because light are at 40cm from longer plant and 50 from smaller, temperature are max 26C. So, it’s normal?

Raise PH of soil? Is run off actuate reading of soil PH? One of my plants might be getting sick, I need a fix for this ASAP!So quick question... how would I go about raising PH of my soil. I just took a reading about 5 mins ago from my runoff and it was like 5.8!?! It’s never been 5.8, and I do have a little issue with 3 of my fan leaves on one plant. No soil PH meter. Just flushed them 5 days ago...
