One out of three of my Critical Rapido autos started severely clawing overnight and is getting worse. Now there is discoloring on the curled leaves. (green area getting splotchy with yellow). I just fed them 1/4 strength nutes at the end of their third week for the first time using AN connoseur and bud candy. Also changed lights to 12/12 for no other reason than to take it easy on the electric bill. They get 1/2 tap and 1/2 RO water ph to 6 (best I can tell with the dye drops method of testing) I am growing in 100% coco in three gallon airpots under 400wt HPS. Please, oh please take a look and help her with some advise for this old hippie growing in coco for the first time. Much love in advance for your help! Peace...bongwater.
Sorry, pics aren't better.

From the pic, it looks less like the claw and more like deformed growth, but your description changes things
It might be too much food for a little one, but coco does need nutes long before soil, so I'm not quite sure
Try testing the ph of the runoff, sometimes that can provide clues into possible lockout

other than that im sorry I couldn't be of more help

plant is too young to be fed ferts and are now suffering from it, i recommend flushing it and waiting a bit longer before you start feeding it.

It can occur due to heat stress. How hot is it at the plant? If that is not an issue, as garden11 stated a good flush might do the trick. Peace

Way too young to use connoisseur. A plant at that stage in its life you should be using AN sensi grow. Bud candy is also usually used to feed beneficial microbes in your soil. Why not go with 18/6 instead of 12/12. Your only saving youself about a $1.25 a week using a 400 watt light going from 18/6 to 12/12 and your now triggering flowering to start yet.
