Hi everyone

This is my first grow and at that it is really a windowsill grow. I move it around depending on sun position (front and back of house)

I am using a Click & Grow which is a type of aeroponic i think. (http://www.clickandgrow.com/pages/what-is-click-grow) It automatically sprays the grow medium (cocoa) when the sensor senses the cocoa is becoming dry.

I planted a feminised auto mako seed on the 19th April. She sprouted 4 days later but her leaves are now curled downwards toward the stem and one of the leaves has a dark spot underneath. SHe does still seem to be growing though.

I have posted pics and was wondering if anyone thought there was something wrong with her due to the dark spot and curling. I am only using water but i did add a pinch of epsom salt to the top of the cocoa.

Many thanks for your help.

Yo this was happening to me when I put my plants on the window sills, I figured it out.

So when you moved the plants around you always made the leaves face the sun right? Well they will keep leaning more and more towards the sun.

To fix, every few hours/day turn the pot 180, and they will ease back up.

The problem with windowsill growing is the sun is never right above, like it should be, so the plant doesn't grow straight up in the same way :(

Anyway I hope this isn't too late :D

Peace
