Looks like the soil might be a little hot. What kind of soil are you using? Are you adding food?

Looks like potential pH problems. Are you checking your pH with a calibrated instrument? If your plants are experiencing nutrient lockout - then this could be the reason they are showing deficiencies despite large amounts of food. In this case, doubling the food won't help. Instead you should...

I agree that they don't appear over-watered. You may try lowering your temps a bit anyway tho. I still think it looks like they aren't getting enough N. If they were getting too much N, youd be seeing dark green leathery leaves, burnt tips, and possibly N-claw. I suggest doubling the amount of N...

Leaves curling downward are often a sign of too much fertilizer. That leaf in the bottom picture looks like it has a pretty bad case of Nitrogen claw. I also see what could be some burnt leaf tips. Are some of the leaves leathery and dark green? If so, probably over-feeding. How much food are...

Depends on what the problem is. If it is an N deficiency, then no, you wouldn't need to flush them. You would just add more food to their water. But it's hard to say exactly what the problem is without having some more information. How old was the Canna Terra soil you used? How much are you...

Looks like a Nitrogen deficiency to me. How many nutrients are you putting in your water, how much do you water, and how frequently do you water?

Could possibly be over-watering or over-feeding. I've seen similar leaves from both. I especially get the dark green leathery leaves from too much Nitrogen. Check to make sure you aren't getting the N-claw or burnt tips. If you aren't, could just be too much water. I have a similar leaf at the...

Looks like a hermie. Pinch off all of the ones you see and finish 'em out. You can still smoke the flowers (after removing the seeds, of course), although potency and weight will be lower. And you can save the seeds, which you can germinate later if you have nothing else!

Looks like a calcium deficiency to me. How much Cal-Mag are you putting in the water? Another potential cause of brown spots can be pH fluctuations in the water. Any chance the pH of your reservoir is varying?

Don't worry too much about the plant growing tightly. A healthy plant will work these problems out. One suggestion is to move your light up a little bit to encourage a little bit of stretching, which will give you more space to work with. You can also try to gently push the large fan leaves away...

I'd prune the two lowest branches (they would probably make excellent clones). Everything else looks good! Nice looking plant.

Oftentimes those cheap soil pH meters are greatly inaccurate. Did you calibrate it when you bought it? Can it even be calibrated? I'm not sure I would trust the readout if not. It's hard to say exactly what the problem is without having more details. Based on the information you've given, it...

What are you using to check soil pH? A pH of 8 sounds way too high. Fox Farm Ocean Forest is supposed to be buffered between 6.3 and 6.8. Good luck!

Thanks for the replies guys. I water approximately half a gallon per 3 gallon pot every 3 days (just enough until I see runoff). This particular clone was transplanted a bit early (little plant in a big pot), so that could be the problem, but I don't get the sense it is over-watered. Leaf...

Hey guys, Bit of a strange one here: I have 6 clones, four of which are from the same mother (all are about 5-6 weeks old). However, one of the four has been having major leaf curling problems in the upward direction (see picture - problem clone on right). This is strange considering it is...
