I’ve been growing these guys in tall beer cans so I can plant them in the ground in the spring. They seem pretty healthy, but why are the leaves curling like that?

Possibly the light too close, seeing how only the top leaves are curled.

Hard to say exactly, but it’s a stress response. How close are your lights? The leaves will close up if they’re over exposed to light, are water stressed, or have some pest or disease. Plants don’t look like they have any pests or disease issues, so either water stress or light burn…

Leaf curl like this is usually light and/or heat stress. Being its worse at the tips, I’d recommend raise your light or turn down intensity.

Those are nice, healthy, and bushy and good to see people that use enough light!

Light/heat stress. Raise the light a little. They look good though. I need to stop procrastinating and start some myself.
