your plant needs nitrogen real bad. Do you have any food/nutes for it? Have you been feeding it anything? if so what?

I have given a nutrient solution that you dilute with water called bio canna

it looks nitrogen starved and it looks like nursery burn too. whatever you're using for nutes isn't working. maybe you're using your bloom ferts. now, which are low in nitrogen.

What is the npk ratio of the canna? N=nitrogen, P=potasium, K=phopherous How often are you feeding the plants?

Your npk ratios are for a flowering plant not one that is still in veg. The nitrogen level in the canna is too low which is the reason for the N defiency. Fish emulsion is a good source of nitrogen, this can be bought at any garden store. If that is unavailable to you then get some shultz 10-10-10 (or 20-20-20) npk and give your plant a 1/2 dose of that in your next watering. You can start the canna back up when you put your plant into flower. hope this helps
