Twisted, wrinkled, and curling leaves

I have 5 Blackberry Moonrocks from Sensible Seeds/Anesia Seeds growing outdoors. I am currently a little over a month in to being outdoors, and they were started in a window ceil for a few weeks. I have been trying a bunch of different transplant and pot size methods with them and all are in different pot sizes. Two are in 15"s, one is in a 5, one is in a 3, and one is in a 2 gallon. 1 was started in roots organic soil with terp tea grow used in the beginning and worm castings. About a month in it was placed in a 15 gallon pot with clackamas coot recipe no til soil, and the other 4 have been growing in roots organic using the uprising line and terp tea grow. All of the Blackberry Moonrocks except for the one in the clackamas coot recipe soil grew out some mutated, twisted, wrinkled, and curling leaves on them and I can't figure out what is causing this. Everything else looks good and they have been vigorously growing with no visible issues. It is only a few leaves that it is happening too, all being bigger fan leaves towards the top. Some newer growth is starting off all twisted too here and there. I was going to chalk it up to genetics but the one in the clackamas coot recipe has not done it at all so I don't know. Trying to figure out the roots organic uprising line feeding schedule so I am not sure if I have been under/over feeding or anything else. I may have also let the soil dry out a little too much before waterings one or two times during some pretty hot days (approximately 90 degrees) when the curling and wrinkling started showing, so could that have anything to do with it? Any help on why the fan leaves are growing deformed like that would be very appreciated.

My plant did this on a single leaf. It might just be some abnormal expression of genetics that's brought out by excessive light/heat, but I'm not going to pretend that I know that as a fact. It seems to be a common, benign occurrence. If the plant looks otherwise healthy, I wouldn't be too concerned.

The DJ short blueberry F2 x Bodhi's goji OG I grew a while back had some wild leaf twists but mostly on the single spear leaves.

Kinda trippy, plant still came out stellar and I made a bunch of seeds and noticed the offspring also do it.

I'm thinking it's the OG genetics in the strain.

Your plants look happy otherwise.

I didn't like the DJ Short Blueberry myself. Strange plant I only had 1 seed but it was very finicky and took forever to finish.

The goji og definitely reduced the flower time to around 8-9 weeks in the cross I grew out. I'll try and find some pics with the curled leaves and all.

Not sure where I put my grow photos as the past 2 years I haven't grown due to a car going through my house, having to sell, rebuy etc. Nightmare.

I'll take a look though.

Thats what I thought. Thought it could just be in the OG genetics. I am guessing it may have something to do with how vigorous they grow and how big the fan leaves get sometimes. Maybe they grow faster than they can handle sometimes.
