    I have a friend who's leaves looked similar. His problem was humidity, added a cheap humidifier and the leaves turned dark green again.

    Looks like the plant is root bound. If all you are giving it is water then its not burnt. A root bound plant will look like its being burnt by nutes and start curling the tips and after progression leaves start to turn weird colors, some yellow, some rustic looking and crunchy even though the plant is plenty watered. I had a girl going for a long time vegging and it got to a point where it was still small but it's growth was stunted a lot and i figured i was doing something wrong trying diff things and after I grew some others out and moved the others + this small "runt" i called it usually to larger pots and voila! within a few days it started shooting up again aggressively and looked just as strong and healthy as my others. Some genetics just need more root space

    Be sure to check your ph. I had a ph meter go to hell and it had that effect on my plants. If the ph is off, it will block the nuits. Also let your tap water set for 24 hours to dissipate the chlorine.

    what kinda light are you using the bigger the wattage the more pale a plant will be !!!
    sorry just went further back in your journal and read a bit it kinda looks like you dont have enough in and out air but it seems to be doing alright and you got them pretty close so that could be the reason for the pale colour and also its normal after you make a the switch for leaves to turn yellow and falling off since the plant thinks it maturing! i would recommend more circulation!

    82/72 is a perfect temp. A 10 degree change is what is recommended from day to night. Ive been using tap water since day one on all my girls.. city water left out for 24 hrs works fine. As much as ppl say ph this or ph that, the more you worry the more issues you will cause. On estimate, the average pot size is a foot of growth per gallon of soil. But if you have noticed that it was growing really fast before and isnt now, it's roots are probably beginning to circle around the bottom of the pot. I let a few stay in smaller containers too long and I had many leaves dying that looked exactly like yours...
