Leaves claw or bend due to over fertilization
or Ph fluctuation.

sounds like "claw" mostly comes from too much N. claw affects trich production also.

Agreed on the Nitrogen being too abundant.

I would say Nitrogen if the leaves
are dark green, but you said there was
no discoloration?
Anyway I would lay back on nutes.

yeah I was using some orchid BS that was 30 10 10 and I switched to the FF Ive been just using tap water and I ordered a ph meter and cal/mag hopefully this will help.heres a couple pics

Well, it's obvious now. 30-10-10? That's just way too much nitrogen for these girls. Unless you are growing orchids, get rid of that stuff.
Flush the soil out really well, 2-3 times the amount of water to the amount of soil. Let the pots dry out before you water again, and I'd come back at half strength with that fox farms stuff and go from there.

make sure you calibrate your PH pen correctly. I got a cheap pen and experienced PH lockout because the reading was off and I brought the PH down too far on accident. You can get a PH 7.0 solution that you use to calibrate and it's only like $6.

Its readin 6.5 the pen I just got today is from HTG Supply it says you gotta leave it in for 3 min. I don't trust it id rather have the strips at leased theyre trustworthy. I paid 29 bucks, I been flushing with water for three days but I cant just run water through the pots cus I got them up in an attic.

Know nothing about soil except i was plagued with Fungus gnats the whole time lol, but IMHO i would trust the pen over the strips. As was stated just get a couple of bottles of test solution. I would get both 4 and 7 myself. I put a small amount of each in a sealed container and use that to calibrate and refill after a few times calibrating so it doesn't get diluted.

I've owned a LOT of pH devices,,,,,personally I never trust a single cheapo pen; buy 2, better yet buy one good one and one cheap one...calibrate regularly
