why are my leaves curling down????

i think i might have over watered my plant possibly yesterday... i cut 2 clones off it but i dont think that effected anything....


why do my leaves look like theyre staright from the nightmare before chrismas????


ima put up a picture in 5min.

Need some more info. What's the temp inside your grow room? what light cycle do you have them on? how often do you water and what's the PH of the soil and water?

The more info the better, we'll help you get this rollin'

temp in the room is usually 74-82 degrees(f) and right now its on a 12/12 flowering cycle, i just fed it about a gallon of water as opposed to its usualy 1/2 gallon, so i think i over quenched it, leme check the ph for the soil although i dont think my tester is legit (its the capsules u mix the water soil n powder and get a color for ph)
and im not sure of the water ph, i use the same water out of my tap ive always used.

did you use tap water?

yea i used tap water

i just got home and some of the leaves on top look worse, im gonna eaise the lite from 19inches to 21

By the way: try to avoid taking clones from flowering plants; any kind of pruning during flowering can cause wilting and stress. These problems can compound or at least make themselves more visible when you: overwater, change EC (PPM) too rapidly or too high, or just introduce too much sodium and you'll lock out all kinds of stuff. Sodium sometimes is at problem levels in my tap water...

Add some Hydrogen Peroxide to your solution, that will help revive the plants.
I add H2O2 to my solution twice per week, I add one 16 oz bottle of H2O2 to 5 Gallons of solution.
The more oxygen the roots get the better they grow.

You would do yourself a favor by purchasing an RO Water system. RO stands for Reverse Osmosis.
The only thing that comes out the tap is pure H2O, no salts at all.
You can get a system at Home Depot for about $150.

they should perk back up soon, although I took like ten clones off a plant once and didn't wait to put it into flowering... it's whole flowering was retarted... I got like 10 grams off the plant when I cut it down early... that's alot like what it looked like at first... but I fucked up with the nutrients that time too... too much sodium... ha ha
that was a while ago... but I would guess those plants are just stressed. raising the light slightly is a good idea, and make sure your room is welll ventilated and check your temps, especially soil temp.
if it doesn't perk back up, I would check it for prysithium or vusarium wilt; it's probably not though... watch the plant closely to make sure you don't start developing leaf spots, or any abnormalities...
I would think they should recover in the next week.

k so from your guys help ive came up with what i think i did to make it like this... its about 1 and 1/2 weeks into flowering and because i doubled the watering amount yesterday &&& cut 2 clones off as well, it all ended up with how my plant looks now so i think i just gotta let the soil dryout a bit? and next time i water in like 3 days i think ill add hydrogen peroxide to my watering (which has 1tbsp of miracle gro tomatoe plantfood, 1tbsp vitamin b-1, and 1/4 tbsp of superthrive for 1 gallon of water) so how much hydrogen peroxide should i add?

Yeah, RO filters are awesome; dechlorination works... and adjust your ph in your water before you water the plant.

yes, avoid overwatering, try to get a fliter, and don't take clones from flowering plants.
Also maintain good sanitation practices when you take cuttings to avoid stressful or fatal infections.

Sativas are a breeze.... if you don't give em too much nitrogen That looks definitely overfed. I would also say that it is not humid enough. That fan is probably dehydrating your plant.

What are your night temps? I would get a thermometer and be checking soil temps at different times of the day.... just after lights out and lights on).

so i took out the fan which was a new addition to the box, but what i have connected for air is a cool air humidifier i bought from walmart and i got dryer vent duct tubing to connect it into my growbox. i dont have it on at all times, only when the box seems to be gettin too hot (around 90degrees(f))

should i trim off or back the fan leaves on the top ofmy plant that got burned by the light??

I would supercrop it with a little lst for good measure.

i already super cropped like 4 branches on it, but is it safe to supercrop during flowering? && first i just want the leaves to perk back, i sprayed it with co2 so hopefully that helps somewhat.

LST = Low Stress Training
Here's a link: https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/6834-how-lst-low-stress-training.html

Actually, that's a brilliant idea. I was about to mention you have a nice covert single-plant operation going on there. LST would be perfect to maximize it.

My first guess on your plants was too much water, especially if they look darker green than usual. If the over-water happened along with an over-feed, it can't help. Perlite mixed in with the soil (when you begin a new plant) will help alleviate the over-watering. Perlite creates pockets of ventilation for water to pass through, and it helps get oxygen to the roots.
