Odd shaped leaves

I'm growing in DWC system, and the clones got planted in the system 3 weeks ago and have been very slow growing in height and very odd shaped leaves have grown over the last week or so when I've been on holidays. (Friend was looking after them). The fan leaves looked fine before but all the new leaves are shown in the pics below. Any ideas please ? :-/1401903563339.jpg

op is really growing radishes.. :)
jk.
Nice and green, looks fine. 3 leaves are totally normal. Different seeds do different stuffs.
Don't worry about how retarded they look in the beginning as long as they look happy.

Haha, just pissed myself at the radishes comment :-). They've been really really slow gaining height and were around 4" when I planted them and 3 weeks later no more that 7". The only normal looking leaves are the very few remaining old ones and all growth in the last 10 day's has come out odd.

I usually kill these man, they never grow right and the yield is usually piss poor. If its your only plant by all means keep it but imvho it's a waste of your money

I've had some clones do that a while back. I think it's stress related. I suggest letting them veg until they start growing normal water leaves again. If u flower before they won't turn out hat great.

When I was given the clones by a friend they had a couple of tiny little pre flowers on them but after research and taking advice off the net I put them in 24 hr lights for 4 day's then 18/6 to get them to grow again. I guess I should of mentioned this sorry and forgive me as it's only my second grow :-/. Will they return back to normal ? Thanks

i would say it is definately re veg, the cuttings probably got moved around a lot before you got them, getting different strengths of light etc, they got confused but should be through the worst of it now.

SEEDS are where it's at-unless you want pests, fungus, or problems. I don't trust clones unless I took them myself from a plant I know is healthy and stable.

Gifted clones are usually gifted for a reason. Sold clones are usually sold for a reason.

Too many horror stories. Unless you have a quarantine room you can keep them in I don't think it's worth the risk, ESPECIALLy if you have other plants growing.

Clones es no bueno, IMVHO. Where I live clones can fetch up to $100 a peice! And it doesn't matter what it is. There is just too much $ to made to not try and turn dying/hermied/sickly plants into cuttings and turn a quick profit to unsuspecting newbies.

That makes sense squid and I don't doubt for a min. I'm a newbie to this and trying my best to grasp the basics at the moment haha. I've had a bit of advice from a good hydro shop and shown him a whole lot of pic's and taking into account that they've flowered while they were clones and they've only grown 3" in 24 day's I just think it's too much of a risk. Yes I'm using nutes....house and garden root exel and formulex at half strength. I think the pic's are hard too see exactly how bad the leaves are but there's literally one typical leaf on each of the 4 babies and those are dying off so basically every leaf is deformed.

Usually £10 each here. Yesterday I pulled them up as they've only grown another 1" since last wed so pretty pointless due to elect cost's.

All 4 are the same mate so pretty pointless as it will take weeks and weeks until it reaches a decent height to switch to flower. It's only cost me a month's elec as I've been sorted for other cost's. :-)
