Ive read about alot of problems with leaves but cant quite put my finger on whats causing this "claw" like leaf. I have a few of them on my plants but not all of them. Mainly on the bigger leaves and fan leaves can someone help me with this please and help with correcting the problem as im 2 weeks away from flower.

also i asked for experienced growers, sure you would have figured that out by the title. and the nitrogen in my plants is fine.. so tick that one off my check list thanks. but i guess everyone's entitled to there own opinion.

Without a clear picture, and just the color changes based on the tint.. it's looking like a potential toxicity that could be locking out something else... that said - what other symptoms are present? Any chlorosis? twisted growth? new growth that's deformed? new growing shoots dying? colors changing from their normal lush to yellow or another color? if so, any 1 particular part of the plant or all levels? (being top/middle/bottom) ?

The claw is from nitrogen, you really should have figured that out if you read alot
I wouldn't rule out the N just yet either, but.. no pink/red stems were mentioned so if that's the case it's relatively fresh... all things the same.

Yeah sorry i took the pic while in grow room quickly. the leaves are green, a few of my older leaves are slightly yellower then the others. new growth is fine and all looking healthy. As said before i know the nitrogen is fine. My feeds are pH'd at 5.8-5.9 as im using CoCo. And it seems to be on most levels, not on the newer grown leaves just the bigger older leaves :S .. Cheers.

Assuming you haven't been underfeeding them in any form, and assuming your pH is stable and not locking out NPK.. they're short on trace (namely 4 of the trace, being S, Mg, Fe, and Mb) hitting them with your trace nutes should be just fine, if you need a recommendation for special trace blends that will not only cover cannabis but other plants as well.. I would highly recommend Azomite.

(All of the previous text also assumes no other symptoms are present that you have not mentioned)

Um sorry guess cause my post count is low and I don't have much rep I'm inexperienced? Hmm or maybe I don't sit behind a comp all day.

Anyway after the better pics, the narrow base looks like low ph iron lockout. But I'm pretty inexperienced I guess so take it with a grain of salt

My previous answer was based on the yellowing across most except the very new areas.. Yellow upper is S/Mg, yellow mid is Mb, and yellow lower is N,P,K, and Mg. Is why I figured.. if you're not underfeeding them, and pH isn't off.. we could rule out the NPK for yellow lowers, and leave the others as listed previously. Let me scope out the pic and see if I see anything that may not have been mentioned in text.

It doesn't look like a big issues to me, in fact; I don't see any "clawing," drooping perhaps. Drooping leaves can be caused by overwatering (will clear up within 24hrs as the water is taken from the leaves), or underwatering (leaves will be dry and brittle, just need to water), or grow room temps being too cold (leaves droop to conserve heat, and do the opposite when conditions are too hot, they'd point up to release heat). This is one of those situations where there's no big problem but you might cause a big problem by throwing too many solutions at your plant at once; so don't do that. I'd say give it some time, they look good to me bro. Also, you've got a little nute burn going on; the burnt/yellow tips tell me that :)

what size container are they in? How is the drainage? The plant looks like some N deficiency, with some of the older fan leaves turning yellow without chlorosis showing. This could also be due to the plant out growing her pot... but more info would be great in that aspect.
thanks
