Well, ive hat some trouble since i took my plants from my closet to the minigreenhouse. I first had heat and humidity issues, so i got em some nice ventilation.
I used to water em every 6 days, its day 6 today, but i dont know if the change in environment affected the watering schedule.

First 2 Pics: One of em looks either overwatered (less probable since i dont water that much at all) or underwatered. Im gonna water now n compare pics later.Its kinda wilted, leaves r kind fallin.

Other 2 pics: The other one just has one falling fan leaf. Its like the fan leaf died n fell....overnight, just that one fan leaf on just that one plant... id ont know if it could be a humidity problem, since its been raining for about 3 days straight, but theyre in the greenhouse with lotta ventilation.

ANY HELP???? PLZZ!!

I got a fan in there, and a humidity absorbing kinda box, dunno how good it is but it makes ice inside with humidity so i guess its working.


BUT I GOT A WIERD EFFECT.. THEYRE POINTING UP< FAN LEAVES AND NEW BRANCHES. WTF IS GOING ON????

they dont look fine to me. first you have a humidity problem-what is your RH?

also, I think, maybe, you are at the begining stages of P deficiency. I noticed one plant had the latest fan leaf dead and twisted tips. This is not normal. I also see the other plant's latest fan leaf is going to drop too now. I also see a dullish purple/blue tint to the older fan leaves.
I also see in the first pic begining stage of mg deficiency. And also in another pic with the burnt leaf edges on a fan leaf. I would say more of a MG def. than P at this point now that I looked at the pics again.
There could me a couple of things causing your issues.
First, I think it is too humid in there. High humidity will keep your soil too wet and not allow the plant to uptake the nutes you are giving it or that are in the soil already. So even watering every 6 days does not mean the soil has dried yet. You say heat issues I am guessing from the lights-.
It looks like you are ph'in your water somewhat but what is your runoff after watering and or feeding? I would say above 7.0 as this would aggrevate the uptake of P and MG with wet soil.
There are remedies but answer above so I can help you. You are at begining stages and will worsen with time exponentially unless you diagnose and correct the problem promptly.

aight ppl,

PH is fine, nutes r fine, the twisted tips were caused but the first day in the ten, it got really humdid and hot, twisted tips n damaged new leafs. Ive had no nute problems for a while, and im using a 1-3-3, so dont think i have p or k def. They are sooo much beter now, besides the twisted tips. I got a fan in the tent and that made em sooo happy

no one said K defeciency. and you do have the start of MG def and possibly P deficiency. again, IT IS NOT COMMON EVEN UNDER THE CIRCUSTANCES YOU SATE TO HAVE THAT NEW FAN LEAF WILT AND DIE LIKE THAT. the one in the pic that is wilted will be dead by morning. and than you will see another lower one start the same.
But, since you have it all figured out, than why the heck have you posted here?

'I have had no nute problems in a while' you state. Um, your wrong. Bi polar much?

HEY PPL, check out, fan leaves r falling on this one now,.. this one was ok before, but jut overnight fan leaves fell.

I already put a fan in there, good ventilation, and a humidity absorbent bucket, that works nice i just took a lotta water out just made it overnight so i guess its working preety well.

I watered them 2 days ago, but this doesnt look like a nute burn, tips and green color is fine.

Any more advice????

I gave em 10-30-20 fert, and micronute compost with all micronutes it needs.

FK i havent been able to control whats going wrong. When i water em they perk up but later they wilt again, im watering lot more than before figured they were dried up since they loved the water, also i was taking 6 days. maaan i cant figure it out...some perk some wilt, even the perfect looking one is now wilting.

those leaves in the pic just before are perked up, but now the top wilted.. im like WTF..

man, maybe you should reread my replies. if it is too humid the soil will not dry out the way it should. they are being overwatered. sure they will perk upon watering but once that water does not evaporate they will wilt. just leave em be for now.
you still have answered what your RH is. these plants have not outgrown their pots have they? wilting leaves signals root issues. is your soil too compact?
