Hi folks,

Well it's my first time indoors and I began with a big mistake:

The plants are 14 days old and the leafs are very curly (see pictures), everything was perfect until I transplanted them into the rockwool cubes 4”x4” on day 12.
I preconditioned the rockwool with pH 5.5 and half strength nut solution for 24 hours, then I rinsed ‘em with new pH 5.5 and half strength nut solution, so I transplanted the rapid rooters 1.5” high babys in the cubes with same light, humid and temperature conditions and panda film on top.

Here are the complete setup:
  • Seeds: Sensiseed indoor mix.
  • Day temperature: 78°F. (18 hours)
  • Night temperature: 68°F (6 hours)
  • Fan: 18 hours in low.
  • Humid: 70%
  • Light: CFL T5 2’ 8,000 lumen, 4 3000k lamps at 2” from the highest canopy.

I ‘m kind of worried, thanks a lot for your help!

Make sure your not over wattering them, and at this stage try to keep your PPM's under 500 until they start growing more, but don't worry about that curling they should grow out of it. It could be that the leaves are curly down to receive light from that white cover on your rockwool cubes thats being reflected from the light above.
 
Thanks a lot Doalude and Notmine for your quick answers, today I flushed them with pH5.5 and H2O2 0.1% solution for the most curly and the same solution but with 380ppm grow nut for the plants that aren't so much curly.

Now when should I give nut solution again? Should I flushed them again? a

Thanks!
Cheers!
