This leaf curl started up about two days ago...plants are in 100gl smart pots, 420 Recipe soil, added in high nitrogen bat guano/seabird, greensand, bio-rice, plant success microbes, n some Dr. Earth 4-4-4. They get fed teas too but not for over a month now (figured the soil is hot enough)....spray with Azamax n Safer's Mildew Cure about every 2 weeks. Curls only on new growth...using well water 7.0 ph...please help...BLESS

When mine do that it's because they're quite hot.

use a scope and check for bugs such as thrips, russet mites, etc...just a possibility, they don't look heat stressed to me.

I always see that when the rh is low and I'm pushing them to the max with nutrients; I assumed/read/heard somewhere that it's a transpiration issue. However, some kushes seem to do that no matter what and still produce quality.
I call it "canoeing"; I didn't invent the term but it may help with a Google search.

I seem to get leaf curl (canoeing) the las 10 days or so in flower. It only happens on the very top leaves so am pretty sure it's heat stress. All leaves are still reaching for the lights so am thinking it is ok.

It's not the direct air blowing on them as much as the low humidity in the air. I solved that problem by putting my humidifier in front of my intake fan

that leaf curl is from too low of humidity for the temperature at the leaf surface. More humidity helps.

Hot, less humid environments are also desired by multiple mite species. When a plant has a large colony of russet mites, this is the plant's first reaction. Definitely want to be safe and scope the petioles of the leaves for russets. They look like maggots and their favorite place to hang out is in the "palm" of the petiole where are all the leaf blades meet.
