Mate, nobody knows.
That's the point.
We know as little as you right now.
I can give you about a dozen different thing to try. To see if it works. But it would be shit advice.
Help what’s wrong with my plant

Nothing. Sorry man.
Its all you can do.
If you need to find out faster. You can get cheap ph test kits at the hardware. If im being honest. Ph is what i think it is.
Youve already gone the plain water route. All you can really do is check your ph. Make sure its ok. Then check ec, when your meter comes. Itll narrow down the possibilities to nearly zero.
May as well do a check for bugs as well, while youre waiting.
Good luck.
Post back here with any progress.

Pretty sure it’s the PH

Can I give you my take? I hope so.
Looks like calcium and I think I can guide you off the ledge. Gets some gypsum and sprinkle a few handfuls and scratch into the dirt . water. Breathe easy.
Cannabis consumes a shit load of calcium and your soil is lacking.

To me the ph looks too low.
What readings did you get, after you tested?

I get the kit tomorrow. Ordered it online.
Cool. Awesome.
No stress. Can easily wait until tomorrow. Plant is fine.
Is the soil still damp since your last post?

Those pics were from this morning kinda, like afternoon. But it was dry and very light pot when I got home from work so I gave it a light watering. I can post updated pics from right now though.
Its all good.
Leave a big watering until tomorrow. Post here with the sample results before you water anything.
Do you have any distilled water, or RO for the soil samples? You can get by without, for a good idea. But its more accurate the purer, the water is to test your samples. Youll be able to fairly accurately read ec.
Which kind of ph tester did you buy? Soil specific, or multipurpose? Doesn't really matter which. Just follow their instructions to a T.
If its a ph tester, like the hydro ones. You can mix 1:5, soil/water. Ec can be done this way too. Just double check the ratios on google.
You shouldnt need more than a Tblsp for each sample.

Has it been getting worse as it dries? Salt / ec
Or after a watering? Wet too long. Anaerobic.
Has there been any trend?

The trend being the branch pretty much I don't see it get worst after any of that really. Just wake up and see its like that.
Bummer. You got hydro specific. Sorry man. I assumed you knew.
Its ok. Hardware is the best place to go, for soil growing.
Thats a bummer.
Its all good i'll try and help you right now. But just know without the equipment we're winging it.
