Leaves have developed "claws" at the tips that bend downwards

BlueSugarLeafstarted grow question 2y ago

My leaves have developed "claws" at the tips that bend downwards. I suspect there is too much nitrogen because I probably used too much root juice. (Approx 8ml, scale was inaccurate) Now my question to the professionals: what can I do to fix the problem? Green greetings! 👽

Likely Nitrogen toxicity, BioBizz root juice have very little N part if i remember well, so either too hot soil or you added something more than root stimulant. Plain water diet , with good watering regime.

How’s she look? Green enough?She got a heavy defol almost a week ago. I’ve been working my nutes and afraid she might not be getting enough N. She’s been under the new light for a week too. Is it just stress or is she missing something? I’m thinking about balancing my nutes back out and upping some calmag.

Persistent issues - wilted leaves, light-green splotches, brown roots My plant has these issues. I've rinsed off the roots in case it was nutrient buildup on roots, which I still believe to be the case. I have given this plant a good amount of nutrients the week before. Does this appear to be a deficiency? Any ideas? Thanks all for responding

Leaves pointing downwards The leaves behave different then a few days ago. I watered them with nutrients, but maybe 1L divided over the three was too much for them? Is it the day night cycle of too much nutrients or water or because they are standing in front of my open window with cold wind?

Im having some droopy leaves on my super skunk toward the top of the plant. I'm pretty sure it's not over watering, I cut the volume back and it's been a day and a half and they're still drooping. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Also, the buds haven't grown really at all.
