Leaves curling up

My leaves are curling up. I have other plants in my room, and none are exhibiting the same symptoms as this plant. 3 weeks ago, I had to transplant because my soil was infested with mites and it was also too low in ph (5.2). I had invested a ton of money in all organic soil mix, and it caused nothing but problems, so I switched to miracle grow soil. My ph monitor now reads high... 7.5 on some, 8 on others. I have started adding vinegar in my water to bring ph down. Do you think this is caused by ph? or is this leaf curl something else? My temps are 65 to 68, is that too cold?

i wouldnt stress over it too much. if you are worried about your ph flush your pots good. im only on my first grow and my leaves did that for a while, mostly on the new growth, but its gone away now.

*edit not sure what lighting those are under but the leaves look very dark, perhaps from over-fertilization

I had a similar issue with one of my plants. I'm not the most seasoned of growers, but it looks like it may be a humidity issue. Would you happen to know what that's running @?
I ended up placing a small bucket/cup of water near the intake, giving the plant a daily, light spray, & conditions improved.

Hope things clear up for ya...

How often do you water? The last pic looks like overfertilization, anytime you get the claw youve got too much nutes. If using MG dont add any nutes until 3rd wk of flower. Get a moisture meter from any garden center to regulate watering.:leaf:

My humidity is 52, have been using a humidifier. I use a moisture meter and let them dry out between waterings. It had dried out when I took this pic. Watered them today with straight water. I did use a 1/2 dose of fertilizer on my last watering, that was the only time I fertilized. That is probably it, they are dark green so they probably have too much nitrogen. I won't use anything but water until 3rd week of flower.

Thanks for all of your responses :)
