Leaf Curl. What’s going on?

Need better pictures.
Beat me to it SoOLED

My question would be:
If they are in 5 gallons of super soil loaded with amendments, and it is 5 weeks old and the rest are healthy, how can their be deficiencies.

Exactly my thoughts. I’m stumped but I’m going to leech her and give her some epsom salt

Weird, the only time I see the lazy curl with the wrinkle is when plants are sitting in moisture for to long. I have this happen on occasion when I don't mix my extra perlite in evenly....but idk if your sure it's not staying wet for to long....GL

Because certain nutrients compete with each other for absorption.

Check out that Mulders chart..

Here is his soil mix and a discussion on the question.

Thanks for that! Ah I see.. Well I wonder what the calcium concentration in his water is. I'm now suspecting that there's too much calcium which affects Mag intake.. And all the other elements it impedes..

But why is it just affecting 1 of 10 plants, same strain, same pack.

That’s not my entire amendment list. I also have Crab Meal, Fish Meal, Neem Seed Meal, Kelp Meal, Alfalfa Meal and BioChar

Well you said it was growing faster right than all the others? By a considerable amount?

This means the ratios in the soil are different to what the plant requires.

Basically it’s using more nitrogen in the soil, therefore it’s require more magnesium. The release rate from the soil is too low, probably not helped by all that calcium too..

i think the top developed faster than the roots, so the roots can't quit keep up with the needs of the top of the plant.
don't over water (i know you aren't) and maybe give them a little extra K, which helps with drought reaction.
otherwise i'd maybe feed light and add something like rhizotonic to help with root growth

A few pics of her

Sorry for butting in but isn't 30% worm casting pretty high? Maybe it got an extra dose that threw it over the edge? Just asking as I thought 10% was standard for worm casting.

30-40% Compost or EWC is standard in an organic mix

Thanx! I'll keep that in mind for future grows.

A good base mix for organic soil is 1 part Peat, 1 part Airation, 1 part Compost or EWC. So 33.3% of each. Then you add your Amendments at about 1/2 cup per cubic foot of base mix.

Thanks again! I'm pretty new at this. I didn't mix my soil correctly then but I'm in 5 week of flower and only have a few sketchy leaves. Gotta do more reading and listening to get to a more successful organic grow. Seems like the organic growers are much more in tune with the plants vs. chemical growers even in this thread you make more sense. I use my Dynagro only on my wife's outdoor plant/flowers now but will switch to organic when I get a handle on the method(s) used. Gotta use up those expensive chemicals. Sorry for the thread hijacking!

Did your plant come out of it?

@GrowGorilla She looks healthy man.. Just funny shaped leaves which I'm pretty sure is an onset of Mag def or Heat/Humidity. Are you sure the Humidity/Heat is not affecting her? What's ur levels?

Below is a couple of pics. Notice how the top leaves are doing what yours are doing? That was before and after a watering with 2tbsp per gal of Epsom Salts

Here they are. Before and after watering with Epsom salts. Top leaves are flat as a pancake

My humidity ranges from 60-80%. 80% is right after a watering. Heat is 68-70 lights out, 76-78 lights on. I’ll definitely give that epsom salt a go. Seems to have worked on your lady. Thanks bro

No probs man, let me know how u get on!
