I saw today that during the 2 day period some of the leaves closed and the other ones still remain opened like they should. I dont use nutrients, each hole is the same as the other and soil is the same, as well seeds are from one strain.
Everything the same, thats why im wondering how come such difference.
What you’re seeing is light/heat stress response. The leave are curling to show the undersides to shy away from the intensity. It’s pretty common outdoors.
Thanks, heat was the first thing I though about too, but the thing is that we had the least sun ladt week and temp over the night dropped to 12°c today. Just find it fishy how the same strain has so much difference between the flowers.
We had a heat wave of 3 weeks all day with temp over 35°c constantly and they handled it just fine, now all of a sudden the leaves close.
For sure heat is the reason? Should i freshen them up during the night and spray some water on them? I already put 80l of water just now, we will see tmrw I guess,
My guess is your sudden temp drop may have something to do with this. It slowed microbial activity of the soil and reduced the respiration rate. They acclimated to the heat over those 3 weeks. Dropping from 35°C to 12°C overnight slows root activity and microbial mineralization. The next couple days the plant may not be moving water as efficiently, so it responds by tacoing the leaves until it catches back up.
Everytime something new, rhats the magic of these things… flowers in the potsbon the balcony, nothing, not even a nudge and they have the same conditions.
Ok thanks guys, so it’s a waiting game. As long as its none of the stupid deficiency im ok with it, each year smth appears.
@lojze Might be able to shade it with something old tarp or small tree branch with leaves on it some kind of blind. She’s healthy looking plant they are tough
