As suggested above by moses, I would recommend giving them an 18/6 light schedule for the rest of veg.
Plants need to rest. And running a 1K, 42 extra hrs+ a week adds up to a substantial savings.
IME 24 v 18/6 I get better results with 18/6.
I usually run E & F in coco under a 1K.

The leaf curl could be genetics too.
Good Luck & Karma the rest of the way.

:plant grow:
 
Photo Update: Day 24, just got done feeding them at 350 again, runoff is reading 200's today


Here is plant 2 with my hand for comparison. I stuck my index behind and down main stem. Supercrop 2 is just about completely healed, will prolly supercrop again tonight.

 
Update: Day 29 non stop 1k watt eye hortilux enhanced hps. Today is the first day I fed at 780ppm and 5.8ph. Came up from gradual 350ppm 5.8 about 2 weeks ago slowing increasing every other day. Run off today came out as 350ppm and 6.3ph

I been keeping the light close about 20 inches from the top of plant 2 which in the pics is the furthest one back.I have been Super cropping almost every other day and yesterday I started super cropping multiple branches per plant. The light being that close does not seem to be a problem anymore and super cropping has done nothing but help health and growth. I also fimed Plant 3's main stem(the only plant im doing this too just to experiment, as thats what im doing im not afraid to try things..) I have a huge willingness to explore and hopefully evolve this community.

Just thought id show you guys some newer pics as of today, and if anyone has any advice or what not im open ears. So far I think im doing great, though this being my first grow indoors im on the edge of my seat so to speak lol.

Heres some pics.

These plants are still stressed the fuck out homie.
Put down the nutes
Back the light up as far as you can. Start lowering it slowly when ALL the leaves perk up.
Flush (100-150ppm BASE NUTES ONLY)
Cut the additives
Get them back up to 500ish with base only - until they bounce back. You want flat leaves that arent deformed
Oh yea and start removing some of that stuff thats all crammed in there. Its gonna be a nightmare with buds packed in those bushes
Might also wanna keep the fan from blowing right on them like that

shit id bend and lst them. nice buch plants you have going there. keep the the light high use a little cal mag to bring your ph up, blow like a tornado and dont watch the water boil. you're in the same boat as everyone else at some point. plants go= root veg root veg etc. roots grow veg on top slows, top spreads out root making picks up. try not to rush it get them root balls growing and the top will bo its thing. 1000watt on seedling that close might get you some stretch and that will make your stems and stalks week. which in turn might lead to more breakage. keep yourself busy planting more seeds or clones for the perpetual. best wishes and good luck cuz 3 months is a long time to baby sit.

btw if the pot or air pot is sitting in water it will cause over watering, Let the water drain through but at least put the pot on a block or brick. hope all the suggestions help you. dont take it hard, just take it, these cats know there chit
