kinda looks like a magnesium def.
what kinda nutes/water you using?
i would suggest you use some cal/mag


... heres some pics and descriptions from the growFAQ to help you compare

Leaves curling up

Are the leaf tips curlling up, do the leaves have yellow margins or tips with green veins

Magnesium (Mg) deficiency.
Magnesium deficiency will exhibit a yellowing (which may turn brown) and interveinal chlorosis beginning in the older leaves. The older leaves will be the first to develop interveinal chlorosis. Starting at leaf margin or tip and progressing inward between the veins. Notice how the veins remain somewhat green though as can be seen in figure 15.
Notice how in Figure 16 and 17 the leaves curl upwards like they're praying? They're praying for Mg! The tips may also twist.
This can be quickly resolved by watering 1 teaspoon Epsom salts/gallon of water. Until you can correct nutrient lockout, try foliar feeding. That way the plants get all the nitrogen and Mg they need. The plants can be foliar feed at ½ teaspoon/quart of Epsom salts (first powdered and dissolved in some hot water). When mixing up soil, use 2 teaspoon dolomite lime per gallon of soil.
If the starting water is above 200 ppm, that is pretty hard water, that will lock out mg with all of the calcium in the water. Either add a 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of epsom salts or lime (both will effectively reduce the lockout or invest into a reverse osmosis water filter.
Mg can get locked-up by too much Ca, Cl or ammonium nitrogen. Don't overdo Mg or you'll lock up other nutrients.

i'd rec. just getting rid of the brita filter... just let the water sit in a resevoir (made from a storage bin or plastic trash can)

a cheap air pump and stone will keep the dissolved O2 in the water to help make it availible in the roots... =]

PH is right around 6.1 i never thought about getting a container with an air stone... thats a damn good idea thanks for the input

you need to wait atleast 24 hours though to let the chlorine evap from your tank...

then you can also add all your nutes at one time and mix them together...


having a res. def. makes watering easier...
