You should take care of the heat issue. The other leaves will have the same issue.

Praying leaves
The leaves are stretching up (praying leaves as I understand). It's just 1 day after topping and I would expect some stress, is this a good or bad sign? I fear I might have topped them a bit too early.

Curling new growth
All of my new growth is curling a little bit. I dont think it's N toxicity, but it's also probably not heat because all of them look like this. Is it N toxicity or something else? Thankss

Runtz muffin curling leaf update
I posted a question yesterday regarding leaves curling up on my 10 day runtz muffin, presumed heat damage but after a feed and 24 hrs she's come back from it, recently upped the light to 400w, do you think they just take a bit of time to adjust to it? They all seem good now

More rusty spots
See this now on more and more leaves. Only upper fan leaves that get good light exposure seem to be affected from this and also the clawing. Have backed off the nutes completely for now and will add ground egg shells to the water in the hope its a Ca deficiency.

Rusty Leaves
3 upper fan leaves have "rusty" brown spots on the upper side. Hard to spot, hard to capture on camera. I also have slight "clawing" on many of the upper leaves. Mg/Ca lockout because of nitrogen toxicity possible? Doesn´t seem to be fungi, as there are no spores to rub off.

What could be causing this?
I'm experiencing yellowing, browning and crisping on some leaves, but only on the main colas so far. I have checked the PH in and out. In has always been perfect, but the PH of the run-off was 5.8 so I'm flushing to rule out nute lockout. Anything else it could be??

Necrotic spots
The last day or two I’ve had a bunch of necrotic spots pop up on the lower 3 sets of fan leaves. She is at node #5 now and starting to put out pistils. Is this phosphorus deficiency? I changed the res as it was close to a week anyways. Thanks all for the help. Happy Growing!

Two part leaf question.
Two parter 😁. Are the new leaves on my plant deformed or am I being paranoid? How can I stop leaf curl? At first I thought it was a light/heat issue but both light and temps are fine and it doesn't feel too humid in there. See more pictures in my diary.

browning leaves
Anybody have any idea on the cause of my leaves getting brown spots and curling at the tips? It's really just on the big mature leaves and leaves near the buds. Any smaller and younger leaves are still fine. Maybe a nutrient issue? Or is it just that its close to harvest time?

Light Stress
Had to move my plants to a new space and under a better light, can see taco type appearance to leaves, I'm assuming this is due to light stress? I've lowered the plants and also turned the light down a little until I know what is going on.

Help with burned leaf tips
The tips of some of the leaves have begun to dry, curl, and look to be dying (see pics). I think it's some sort of nutrient burn, but I'm unsure. I water every other day w/ a solution of Miracle-Gro 24-8-16 at 50% recommended concentration. Used distilled H2O last 2 waterings.
