Leaves looking like Claws

[BalloonFight]

I am growing a plant in soil, feeding it only pure H2O, and using multiple CFLs. Its now in week 2 of flower and the top leaves on each branch are starting to form claw-like shapes and fold in on themselves. I know that it isnt from heat as some that are too far away from the light are doing it as well as those up close. Any idea what causes this and how to fix it?

week 2 of flower and nothing but water
seems like u should be feeding it something

It is in well fertilized soil, should have more than enough nutrients IMO

 

[somEGuy1]

did you give them nitrogin not to long ago? sounds like an overdose. just give it some water it should be fine

No, as there are no signs of burn

pics???????????
r they discolored of some sort?

"The claw" is a sign of N toxicity. Not saying that's what it is (hard to tell for sure w/o pics). It is something to consider though. If your soil has nutes in it, then maybe it has too high of a percentage of N, but not enough to actually burn the plant.

Yeah...you might want to ride it out.

 

[moash]

what kind of soil is it

 

[BalloonFight]

How long does something like this usually take to "ride out"?

 

[BalloonFight]

what kind of soil is it

Homemade soil from a farmer. manure, etc.

in that case u should be able to flush it
3 gal water to 1 gal soil

I'd just give her a good watering first and see what happens.Mine some time show this and without the burn so when they do I just water the next time .
