Why Is This Happening??!!!??!

[RewTheJew]

To start, this is my first time doing COCO hempy buckets, so its kind of unfamiliar territory. I have been, up until the last week, been feeding daily until 15% runoff, but decided that overwatering might be my culprit so i cut it to every other day. I have just recently stepped up my nutes to run the Lucas program, so that means I am using 15ML per gallon of PBP Bloom, and 5ML per gallon CAL/MAG. I normally mix 15 gallons at a time, and it sits in a 30 gallon tupperware w/ air pump and stones. The strain is Lowlifes Auto AK which i have successfully grown in soil numerous times.

So the problem, twisting leaves, and slight yellowing, has been present since the early stages of the plant, so that is why i am not incredibly concerned but concerned enough to find an answer. I am just wondering if you guys have any idea. oh, and i bumped up my lights tonight so they arent so close. That may be the problem, but i am not confident.

Ne ideas?

Eh, I wouldn't worry too much, looks like the genetic "crinkle" I get with certain plants from seed. You did say this was seed yes? So my bet is it will grow out of it or that it won't affect bud production/quality.

its a mutant crinkle or a magnesium def. before the plant goes to sleep (2-3min) spray it down with epsomsalts and water (1tsp/liter) the mag wont hurt it if its genetic.

I would say you dont have to much to worry about(krinkled leaf problem that is). as far as the yellowin looks to me like they might need greater nitro. Be careful though increase gradually.

ok thanks guys! I bumped the lights recently, so we will see how that does. I have also just recently stepped up the nutes. I noticed my resevior has mega ph drift, so i am going to test PH before i water from now on.
