Hey all so a few of my plants have started to curl up at the end of the leaves and shrivel up here is all the info on the I am thinking it is maybe a calcium deficiency or something not too sure any thoughts would help. The 3 effected plants are on the same regimen as all my other plants which seem healthy. Here is the info below and some pics let me know what you think this is thanks!
 
T5HO 8tube 4ft light setup
Water only when dried out about every 3-4 days or so
Nutrients 1tablespoon per gallon of Fish emulsion every 2 weeks

Just a tip from growing in cups from my experience. The soil can dry up at the bottom,so you need to give a good watering and watch the water actually drain from the bottom then you know it's watered.
 
Yes I notice it can tend to dry out I actually bottom water all of the them that have roots grown to to the bottom and the others that do not yet I make sure to get some air pockets and there and make sure it drains out the bottom in the second cup

Sorry forgot to include in post. why does this look like a lack of water to you or something nutrient based? 
 
 
 
I am having this exact same problem as well... hope someone out there knows for sure. I thought that maybe it was somehow wind related because of the storms we've had recently... no idea though.
 
Its hard to tell when so many factors can attribute to it. The ends of the leaf nust looms weird almost diseased. Is this your first time growing?

Try starting some more seedlings and feed them from the top.

I can rule that out as I am growing indoors so it cant be that for me which might help you rule that out possibly?

I  just separated the 3 from the others from the others wasnt sure if it was some kind of infection. This is my first season growing and its only these 3 plants the rest seem to be fine and they are all on the same schedule for everything so kind of strange. I also have about 10 seedlings going right now and they are doing just fine so may let this ride out and see what happens with these just curious what the cause of this is.

Indoors can also cause problems. I would just terminate them if they dont bounce back in the next two weeks. Always good to start extras for this exact reason to choose the best strongest plants when you ready for planting.

Yeah that is what I am thinking I have a few more plants of the other 2 but the one is unfortunately the only plant I have left of the scotch bonnet variety :cry: but oh well hopefully it does bounce back.

It is in Promix Ultimate Organic mix. As for Foliar spray the only thing is fish emulsion every 2 weeks and no insecticide. Have any idea what it would be?
 

No need to terminate.
 
 
What is the medium. Any foliar spray? Any insecticide used?

 
 
Just enough to get to the bottom of the cups seems to drain ok it's not overly wet or anything same amount of water as with my healthy plants.

how much water ?  don't see much perlite , and are they drying out good between watering ? 
 
No just the same dose of fish emulsion as all my plants which is only every 2 weeks. I don't see any insects or anything any idea what insects would cause damage like this If that's the case?

New leaves look like some kind of insect damage or nutrient burn. You sure you havent sprayed anything on them
