Leaves Folding

Hey all. First of all, thanks to ALL posters on the site. I'm on week 4 of my first grow ever and if it weren't for all of you, I wouldn't have known where to start. So give yourself kudos!

This little baby turned 4 weeks old today. I transplanted "her" 3 days ago into a mix of:

2 parts - Miracle-Gro Organic Choice 10/5/10
1 part - Peat Moss
1 part - Perlite 4/1/6
1 part - Vermiculite

I haven't yet watered since transplant but first soaked the soil in ph'd water of 7.2, 1 tablespoon fish emulsion 5/1/1 and 1 tablespoon molasses per gallon.

I have four plants growing with each 1-2" away from a 26W 6700k CFL and a 4' fluorescent aquarium tube with 10k running behind them all. I rotate them four times daily and a 18/6 timed schedule.

My problem is, it seams as though the new growth leaves are curling. I'm not sure if it is a nutrient deficiency or maybe the lights are too close? Maybe something else? ANY input would be appreciated! I am just worried the plants are stressed.

AGAIN, THANK YOU ALL!!!

I believe thats a water deficiency if there actually is a problem.

Leaves fold up to better hold in water and to keep from transpiring. Try watering the plant to and see if that remedies your problem.

Looking good, though, by the way.

Looks pretty good to me bud. I stay away from miracle grow and like to keep the ph around 6.5. Good luck with your grow.

Thank you both a ton!! You know just how good that is to hear!!

Happy growing!!

GOOD CALL Anonymiss! Leaves have opened back up after a nice soaking. I moved the light source up an inch as well. Better to be safe than without smoke I suppose.

Thanks again guys!
