First thing that popped into my head was that you need to flush with just pH'ed water for another week. There's still a lot of nitrogen in those leaves and is the reason your plant looks like that. Don't worry, she will be back to normal soon enough. I hope this helps. Good luck.

High masonandjardin, This is still due the Nitrogen toxicity, the result of the plant getting too much Nitrogen (usually from too high levels of nutrients overall, or by using a Vegetative nutrient in the flowering stage). It causes dark green leaves and curled tips (“the claw”). One of the main symptoms of a Nitrogen toxicity is curled tips (“the claw”). And that claw is pretty obvious when I look at your pictures. You need to flush the soil and after flushing give less Nitrogen nutrients. You can do this flushing by slowly pour water pH 6.2 onto the top of the soil, allowing it to drain freely from the bottom of the pot. Pour slowly, so the water doesn't overflow from the top of the pot. Use approximately four times the pot's volume in water to flush the soil. For example, use 1 gallon of water for a 1 quart pot. After the flushing you need to let the soil (almost) dry out completely. And from here you continue your grow as you did before but now with less Nitrogen. Goodluck!

I don't think you did a good enough flush. Try it again.
