Its because your top watering… after roots hit the water , turn the top feeders off… also make sure that your ph is in the range of 5.6 to 6.0… and you should be good to go… make sure that you have at least a 1 inch air gap between net basket and water level… :wink:
Also what nutrients are you using… you should bump it up to 1/2 strength… :wink:

helpful hint: when taking pics of the ladies…use white light. The colored lights make it impossible to see what is going on with the plant.

I think I have the same problem… what do you think? Is it because of too much watering?

check your ph

Any recommendations on how to check Ph?

with a ph meter

My other plant, which is another pot is fine, although I do everything the same way… Are you sure it’s not just simply overwatering?

What people don’t understand is each plant different. Just like your children. What works for one kid might not work for the other. Ph is one of the most important things to keep under control as a grower. You can’t grow good weed without one.

Hi, I checked the Ph of the soil. It’s 7, which is the upper acceptable level for soil according to this forum. So I guess the Ph is fine (but tell me, if not). What else could cause my leaves to dry?

What is your RH. A very low RH can do this too

Your pH would be better down at about 6.5. How far away are your lights?

Lamps are 5 inches far from the upper leaves.
