Hello Bluekripple,
your plant is experiencing a Nitrogen overdose. Therefore, you see clawings at the tip of the leaves, the dark green leaves and the Nitrogen burn at the edge of the leaves. Flush your plant with Canna Flush and ease up on the Nitrogen in the future.
Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

Possible overfeeding nutes?Could someone possibly identify the issue on that one leaf? I had another like that a bit worse that where the edges started to curl. They were fan leaves so I ended up removing them as they were a bit worse off. Doing much better now, only guess is too much nutes.5 years ago

Leaf discolorationThere is a purple/blue tint to the tips of my older leaves. New growth coming in lighter green. Slightly red and purples stems only at base of oldest leaves. Leaves also taco curling slightly. Thinking phosphorous deficiency at this point, maybe combination N toxicity and heat?5 years ago

Is this turning purple from temp changeSo it looks like what I thought was a brown spot (under the grow light), appears to be purple when I pulled it out to get a better look and stake it down. I did switch the light to something cooler, could this be from temp dropping. Not worried yet, just curious. Thanks5 years ago

Seeing some top bud leaf discolorationStarting to see small dark/black discolorations on the leaves.
Since I don't know the genetics, I can't tell if it's prone to dark leaves.
Could it be signs of anything else?
