Wrinkled & Curling leaves during 2nd week flower! HELPPPPPPPP!
I have two outdoor foxfarm soiled plants. One is LA OG(heavy indica), and the other is Tangerine OG(hybrid). They have been super healthy all throughout their lifetime, nice lush and green. But since the first week of flowering the leaves started drooping UNDER like claws. And some of them have burnt black tips. There are some leaves that are severely wrinkled and wilting. I have read around and people keep saying over watering but i know its not. I only water about once ever 3 days and the soil is always dry as fuck when i do actually water. I havent been giving them nutrients for the past 3 waterings to try and straighten out this problem but nothing is subsiding. Now im thinking that i have some kind of deficiency.
If i have been flushing them for the past week, shouldnt the leaves straighten out and stop drooping? Or are they getting worse because they arent getting the right food they need to grow?
Any help is appreciated!!
(first pic is my biggest plant, looking healthy, but leaves are fucked)
(2nd droopy leaves, its like this all over the plant)
(3rd pic is the worst leaf i could find, very dry feeling, plastic feeling to it)

A friend with weed, is a friend indeed.
When you say the soil is dry...can I ask how you know that it is dry? Do you check the weight, or dig down a few inches? Also, what lights are you running, and what temps/humidity?
Overall though, it looks fairly healthy apart from that, so you may be more worried than you need to be just yet.

1st plant looks healthy man
2nd could be overwatering or little too strong feeding, if you kept it up youd begin to see the burnt tips just back off the feed next watering
3rd couldnt tell you accurately
You said youve been flushing them for a week? I usually would only do one big heavy flush then replenish them with some 1/2 strength feed.
That tells me its rootbound, root system is now stressing and causing these new issues. At the beggining of flowering the roots want to expand alot, so repot it bro.always dry as fuck when i do actually water
hey up buds thanks for advice my babies are cuming on now will start a thread and get some pics up soon mate. it was my intake fan wasent pumping in enough air. temp is always around 80f with lights on and 78f with lights on.

yes ive been flushing for about a week. ive watered them about 3 times without any nutrients. should i start back up at 1/2 strength and see if the leaves straighten out?
Well it will just get worse and reduce harvest. That pot is far too small, next time try 10gal min.
i always trigger the top of the soil all the way down to the root ball and can tell its super dry. i also lift up the pot and can tell they need watering by the weight of the pots. and im all outdoor. no lights. my outside temps are about 70-80 on the regular. at night it probably gets down to 65 or 60 at the lowest.
crap so its definately root bound? how does that even happen? this is my 2nd grow and the first go around didnt have any problems with the 5gals. the plant still has lots and lots of "v" leaves that are loving the sun and completely perked. but the lower ones are drooping
