WTF? I've never seen this before.

[the.fatman.cometh]

Hey guys, sorry I havent been around much lately, but I've been really busy. This post though is not for conversation, it's more of a rush to the emergency room type of thing, lol. I should also include that I am VERY stoned right now, so if this sounds weird, don't worry, it sounds right to me.
My girls, the first grow I've been able to do in a LONG time, are starting to do some weird shit, and I'm not familiar with it at all. So I need the GP fix, I need your help.
Here's what's going on, the leaves are turning and curling up, almost as if they are wilting, but they're not. Also, some of the leaves are turning yellow-white on some places, maybe this is related or a different problem altogether.

Facts about the grow:
-CFL's-overhead lighting only presently
-DWC
-3 plants
-17 days in vegetation(18/6) so far
-1 air pump at the moment

Pictures:

Sorry this one is so blurry

And, thanks ahead time for the help guys.

Cheers

I am an inside moron but he pics will help, you know

[the.fatman.cometh]

The pics failed? It must be something on your end? Bro, the pics are uploaded to the site, and are showing up fine for me. IDK
Anyone else having this problem? Could it be a bug?

Fine for me Fatman. What are your temps inside your grow? Looks like heat stress to me. Should be on average 78 f a few degrees either way is fine, and lower in the dark is also fine.

What kind of air exchange do you have babes? cool air coming in and hot out.

I will check back.

[the.fatman.cometh]

Ahhh, jangel, sweetheart, you have hit the nail on the head I believe! As of right now, the only time there is ventilation is when the lights are on (they're on 18/6), so there is still 6 hours in which the door is shut.
I am working on a real solution, one in which the air intake/out take is ran from under the door via square vents/hoses/fans(pics when I am done will make it clear), but I need one for the time being, any ideas?

[jangel]

Do you have any fans in there? Do you have a hi/low thermometer so you know what you are dealing with? You need to get a read on the temps fatman. Then you have a starting point. They have pretty cheap ones at Home depot. or lowes would have them, what ever is close to you. Look for one for outdoors that has a window monitor. Then you can use that to hang it at plant level for a reading and it will tell you what you need to do then. They read hi/low temps. digital too.

[green_nobody]

if it is your door cut a intake hole into its bottom and cover it from the inside with a light catcher box so that the intake won't leak any light into your place - but an passive intake as this requires a constant ventilation of the room to keep the outside pressure above the inside pressure in the room or the smell will slowly leak into your place.

to you plants, did you check the EC value of your solution, looks a bit like a mix out of starting EC burn and something else equal nasty and jump of the EC can happen quickly in a hydro unit due to several factors.

Hey fatman, get a new door one that you can cut a hole in and when you move replace it with the one that there.This way you can put one vent in the top and the bottom.that will give you all the air in and out you need. Peace

Hey Fatman,

I have no pictures on my end, either. Possible file extension incompatability? I'm just lamely fishing in the dark here, so IDK.....

tokecrazy, man that is the perfect idea, but it's not practical for me, to be honest. Plus It is the closet in my office, so I need it to be discreet.
If I can, lol.
