Leaves clawing
BobTheGrowerstarted grow question 4 years ago
I suspect that it's caused by nitrogen toxicity, what do you think?

HighRoller909answered grow question 4 years ago
yes,nitrogen toxicity.i am very familiar with this kind of leaves.happens when I abuse some nutrients that have good amounts of N.especially during stretch.some strains,not all.and not all the leaves,only the leaves on the tallest branch. very weird clawing indeed but I found out it was N overload. that leaf won't recover but no problem if you cut off N or reduce a little bit

Thanks Ner0z, I also tought it was overwatering, but the problem didn't go away when i started watering less.

This margin curl appears to have spread from one plant to 2 of the other 3. So I assumed not pH, not lockout, not nutrient based. Roots all great. I've culled the 3 and there is 1 survivor doing well but what was this? In the diary I mention using Temprid FX, Neem, Spinosad.7 months ago

Maybe PH Lockout?Hello everyone, can you maybe help me? My Black Cherry Punch has some kind of problem. I suspect it’s a nutrient lockout caused by the pH value. I flushed it two days ago, and the drain had a PPM of 1000 and a pH of 7. The plants are at the beginning of the 2nd week of flowering.Leaves. Edges burnt

Leaf-tips going droopy modeAfter my second to last watering the tips of all of the leaves started to droop a bit.

Advise to flush or feed in VegDoes this is look like a nute burn, deficiency, or ph problem? The two plants that are growing a tad taller have had yellowing tips some curling downward. Don’t want to overreact and cause it to worsen, they’re looking healthy otherwise. Any advise whether to flush or feed?Leaves. Curl down

First timer seedling worries.First time grower, is this normal for a seedling? I'm currently on day 3 and noticed these guys have some dark curling leaves. Is this caused by over/underwatering? A light issue? Or am I just over worried? Soils feels moist. They are in Tupur, lightly buffered, in 1gal growbags.Leaves. Curl down

Leaves are turning into dark green with a plastic-like textureI have 3 ladies in my tent. While the others looking healthy, one of them has a darker green tone with a texture like plastic and shiny.

End of Flower, Yellow and crusty leaves ok ?Hey last weeks of flower and I’m not sure if it’s fine how they are developing, as I started flushing this week they quickly started developing yellow crusty leaves.
Should I keep flushing them as I will cut them in 1 or 2 weeks or should I try to balance out missing nutrients?Leaves. Curl up

Weird Leaf ProblemNew leaves show strange twisting/curling. Humidity ~50%, temps 28-21°C (D-N). Did LST last week—could twisting be due to reorienting to light? Using All-Mix soil, Bio Grow, Calmag. Water left 24h, not pH'd. Some leaf holes caused by me. Flipping soon—help resolve this issue!Leaves. Curl up
