This is the curling one

It doesn't look too healthy, but I'm too new to growing to give an opinion. It looks a bit frazzled. Is the other plants the same strain? I'm sure @Waira could help with this one

.....pics finally ,...hmmm, by any chance have you been feeding pretty much every time you water? We should have had that tidbit already, and I forgot to double check,...never assume! ... the clawing is a symptom of N toxicity,... what treatment exactly did you do? And a pic of one that brought you here in the first place..?

Yep i have been feeding every time! so my next water will be with out nutes. Today i bought ph testing kit, my water is 7.4!!! so i am going to get sone canna organic ph down and see how it goes. all the other 7 plants are fine, although one has started to curl. Will keep you posted

It might help to buy a TDS meter to check the EC. It's a good guide to how much nutes you're feeding. London water has a high EC, so it's easy to overfeed.

Ok everybody, i just phoned two reputable grow shops and they both said the same thing "Do Not use ph up or down when using biobizz products" the biobizz soil and nutes work together. My tap water is ph 7.5 but i was also told to leave it out for 24 hours this helps to rid it of chlorine.
My plants look ok at the moment the problem i had last week (iron deficiency) seems to have righted itself. SO i am going to water without nutes a couple of times a week and i am going to cut down on the bio grow and step up the bloom and top max.

Before you reply be aware that for everybody that says biobizz products are shite somebody else thnks they are brilliant
The question "are biobizz compast and nutes any good" does not have a definative answer.

...Biobizz are fine nutes, soils too... one needs to just get familiar with them, like any other,... sounds like a plan!

than you, my selling point is "organics" most of the shitte weed in the UK is mass produced by criminals interested only in big profits:vibeguard:
