The leaf curl seem to be something related to the enviroment or growing conditions, I'm often having a few plants or clones doing that from time to time and not always the same ones. Never knew the reason why tho. But some seem to be more sensitive than others.

As for the Ghana being inbred I'm pretty sure that's not the issue, they were imported from Ghana by a friend from the Vibes Collective called Flying Lion as bagseeds, who first reproduced that P1 generation and sold a bunch to Charlie Garcia from CBG. He got interested on distributing those under their brand in a similar way they did with the South Africans from PTG, Durban from African Herbman or the Mexicans from Sinaloa that they have been offering in the past.

I'm sure you will need to search for potent and nice compact and faster phenos within the Ghanas. They are still pretty much wild and untamed. With this kind of lines it's more like try to find out if they have any potential high and terpene wise. Potency and better growing qualities may come with breeding and selection IMO.

Good luck with those projects!

Nice to know about that. Sometimes it is difficult to guess how many generations have the plants been out of their environment.

I wasn't very lucky with this strain, just a couple of females, and I couldn't make a complete impression of what I can reach. Let's see through F2.

That's the first time I see a curling like that. Well, not really. The first generation had some of that already, but it didn't keep happening, the plants were OK and it didn't matter. Have you got some pictures of that in other plants?

Your soil is too rich for those seedlings or you give them too strong liquid fert. Those burns we can see on your others seedlings are typical and the leaf curl too.

[Carraxe]

Soil is clean coco, feeding is half strenght max, and the burns in other seedlings have a different origin. This is the not leaf curling for overfeeding, have you ever seen it?

[Pepé The Grower]

Half strenght may be too much, landrace generally needs low ec ( 1.3 max in full flower, ec from the water included). Try 1/4 the strenght then go up if plants respond well... or even better, buy a ec meter and see for yourself how much they need.

I insist, the spots you see, they are in different plants and they have a different origin. These are not the Ghana plants. And these spots are not from overfeeding, I just told you. I know why they appeared, but they are not the subject here.

If you have an explanation for the curling in the Ghana leaves, it would be nice to hear it. But I know it is not overfeeding, since there isn't any sign of overfeeding in any of the pictures. I have already grown these plants and I know how to feed them.

What I doubt is that you have ever seen overfeeding.

Look in the search bar and make a search for pictures of overfed plants.

Yes, I understand you try to help.

I know I can be a little unfriendly sometimes, but don't take it personally. This curling subject thing is just curiosity, it doesn't affect plant growth. It doesn't have any relation with nutrients, and it is probably a consequence of ambience conditions. The interesting thing is that it is difficult to find strains showing it. I'd love to see some pictures of similar curling.

Thanks a lot for your contribution
cheers

Mustafunk might be right when he says it could be some environmental thing?
Perhaps you should look at temperature air humidity and most probably some other things?
Look for other plant seedlings which do the same thing with their leaves.
These are just propositions, as I don't know either what it could be.

kind regards

Okay, no problem.

Last time i had this happen to some of my plants, they were planted in very hot soil. Relative humidity was low ( 20%) but it had little impact on the plant (they were indica, adapted to dry air conditions). As soon as i flushed the soil the issue disappeared while the RH remained as low as before.

Since then i use less hot/strong soil and never had this issue anymore.

That's just my experience...


Good luck with your project.
