The curl of your leaves reminds me of the ol' Claw. Probably an excess of nitrogen and, from the look of things, not enough lighting.

I don't think it's pH because it doesn't look like a nutrient deficiency. More like something to do with light, heat, or humidity. It could be a result of CO2 deprivation. What's your CFM for air exchange look like?

Just because you have lights doesn't mean they are close enough. That one plant doesn't look 650w strong to me.

Here's a look at some plants grown with a 400w MH at 4 weeks Veg.

And here's a look at some plants grown with a 1000w MH at 6 weeks Veg.


Your plant should be somewhere between these given your lighting. The plant you showed is stretched; indicating that the lights are too far away (probably to deal with the heat).

Other than that all I can think of is you sprayed the plant with something.

Keeping the light close is important to efficiency. Research the law of squares.
