Okay, i've noticed that my plants have been from weird leaves and other plants are getting the claw and purple stem fan leaves
IMG_0663.JPG IMG_0664.JPG IMG_0665.JPG IMG_0666.JPG this plant has the claw, purple fan leaf stems and weird leaf shapes in the middle
IMG_0667.JPG IMG_0668.JPG IMG_0669.JPG this plant does not have the claw, has little to no purple fan leaf stems
but im noticing that the leaves are a weird color,also the leaves look strange

im feeding these guys FoxFarm grow big, big bloom, and cal-mag
and water with cal-mag
Using Coco+perlite 70/30
364watt CFL
I think these plants are in week 4

As with all plant issues, the first thing to check is PH. Until you do that, we cant really help. it looks like N tox to me, but that is probably PH related.

pH fluctuations is the wrinkled leafs and on at least one of the plants it shows as a claw canoe shaped leaf from stem to leaf tip I am familiar with seeing that with pH fluctuations. In addition to that you also are showing clear signs of too much Nitrogen that is the leaf tips which have a 90 degree bend at the end. The last item I notice is the up turned leaf edges it could be fans or too high of temps, possibly too low of humidity?, not sure on humidity but maybe.

when you say check PH, do you mean the run off or when i feed/water... when i feed/water, i always try to PH it around 6. Its not accurate because i use a general hydroponic test indicator, so its going by color :-|

yeah i figured its nitrogen, i have the same problem with the mother plant (which is in flower right now) it has DARK leafs and purple fan leaf stems, it had the claw until I gave it a Flush, its seemed to go away away after that(the claw).
My RH is usually 55% more or less
Temp is always around 78-82 F

some fluctuation is ok. i am in promix and usually stick to 6.1 to 6.5. i think you want to pick up a meter, so you will know. for now, try a light flush and a more balanced feed, not so N rich.

Yeah and also that temp is just a tad high but as you see the plants actually are handling it well.

I agree on the temps being high, which is why i have one osculating tower fan on bottom and a small hurricane fan on top 24/7
Can't afford an inline fan for my veg tent yet :/ soon ill get one

I had same issue starting out, calmag has 2% n and some iron aswell. I started mixing gypsum and epsom salt every watering and then adding a tiny bit of calmag ontop if ph is good and they still got calmag def. They love the sulfur gyp/ep. seems like you cant go wrong adding a tsp each each watering they dont absorb it all at once the same way the concentrated calmag does
