its a sour diesel strain, im using miricale grow soil, and i have 2 cfl 26 watt bulbs, second is mainly to add more heat to keep the temp between 68F-75F.......right now light stays on 24 hours, going to change to 18/6 (on/off) in a week or so, then when the plant gets to about 12 inches i will change to 12/12 to start flowering stage and cross my fingers its a female lol....if i continue on my plans does anyone have an estimate on the yeild of this grow??
This is my box set up, it isnt anythin crazy just somethin i put together in an hour or so....

Water less. Your soil is pretty saturated for that little guy/gal.
If it will fit, get a y adapter and set it in your reflector so you can get more light to the plant.

thanks for that, i kno exactly wut it is, its over fertilizing, im a newbie rememberbut thanks alot for that tip
that is not over ferting
that is clear heat moisture stress leaves are standing up and tips are curling up, indicates the plant is transpiring really hard (stress)
as a newbe you need to learn when the plant is telling you things
and that plant is screammin!

What are your Temps and humidity?
What light are you using and how close is it?
How often do you water? and how much water?

from your pic, it looks like the lights are plenty far away perhaps to far, I would have those lights closer (between 2 and 4 inches at this stage of growth)
the liner looks like tin foil, I would get rid of that and replace it with mylar (you can get a space blanket at wallmart for a few bucks) tin foil reflects heat and can cause hot spots (though probably not so much with those lights)
and humidity is very important and at this stage in growth should be between 50 & 60% (meters to measure are cheap walmart has em for $7)
Your temps are good
best advice is to lower the lights and see if the leaves settle down

Ok I gotta say this is a head scratcher
watch em with the lights up, but I use those to veg and have had em at 1 inch with no problem???
so not sure, is that in fact tin foil ???
and for watering you want plenty of run off when you water , watering just a bit or with no runoff will lead to problems down the road
also I would run the fan 24/0
How is your source of fresh air ? could be low CO2 causing this ???
ultimately your goal is to get those leaves to relax to stop the stress, make minor tweaks and watch em for response

I just asked another member to come have a look we'll see what he thinks?
I would get rid of the tin foil though, simply painting that box flat white would be better

Not sure what the humidity is i dont have a reader for that, but my temp stays between 68-75 (68-70 night time) , im using 2 26 watt (100 watts equivelent) hanging from the top...ill show a pic
what up guys !! yea that tinfoil has got to go ... it si going to do nothing but cause MAJOr heat stress on that plant ... Tinfoil = HotSpots Bigtime And unless that is a purple strain that purpleing is a nute deficiency .. Magnesium i think ... and when you water are you watering enough to let it stand in your water catcher under the pot .. MJ hates to get its feet wet .. id try a flush with a gallon of spring water .. loads of micronutrients in it .. and then take her off the nutes altogether for about a week and just let her have little sips of distilled to leach out the soil alittle ... something toxic is happening there and its coupled with your overheating her .. even tho your ambient temps are right that DAMN TIN FOIL will make it 3 times as hot in certain spots .. hope she gets well soon
