day 20? are you on a 12/12 lighting schedule? Dude, those plants do not look good. Do something stat. If i've learned anything, its that when there is a problem like that you need to get on the internet or go down to the grow shop STAT.

The light isn't too close. What kind of water are u using? When u say half strenght is that every watering or every other? What is the runoff PH?
I would think u would have more branching going on at day 20.

Maybe a trace mineral deficiency.
I agree, it has to be a lockout because trace minerals are plentiful, even at half strength.
I bet u are running a high root zone ppm which is causing the PH to jump way down when it hits the nutes that have accumulated in the root zone. This is the PH u need to have in check. The PH of the water u add will instantly change if it is not balanced with the root zone.

The main thing you should be worried about is the fact that you have been flowering 20 days, yet the plants are definitely not flowering. The whole plant is dark green as well. Also, looking at the pictures again, there are only 2 leaves that are twisted, the others are curled under. Your answer is too much Nitrogen. Not sure how that would have happened with half strength nutes, especially since you shouldn't have been using any Grow Big in the first 2 weeks of flowering, unless something got dumped accidentally or such. Or, since you are using OF soil AND feeding nutes, the plants very well could have been taking in way too much N and it's really showing its ugly face now.

some may disagree with me on this cure, but you should flush them. then feed (PH'd water of course) and a little under 1/2 strength nutes, and slowly (like spread it out through weeks) work your way up in nutrient strength.

do what he says... but flush a gallon of ph'd water through for every gallon in each pot... then add half strength nutes of what your doing, for 2 feedings. then start off with 1/3rd stronger than what you just used.from etc etc....Pe@ce..

Thats just completely obvious! Look how dark your leaves are dude... Cut back on the nutes ASAP Do just a minor flush 1-1/2 to 2 gallons of water to your pot....Very slowly.........Personally i think its at its max intake of N man...i would cut back maybe to 1/8 strength of nutes starting 5 days after your flush, watering half the amount you usually do during these days.. This should help good look

Theres no way it can be nute burn. I am using pretty much the same thing as you but I use full strength FF every other feeding (1 Nute feeding to 2 PH'd waterings) and I dont have any problems.

Some of the other posts for the problem are more likely like excess N (Dark green Leaves) or there is some kind of environmental stressor thats causing your leaves to deform...

no its not nute burn but ur leaves cant handle any more N personally i would put more Phospherous in the plant since its flowering to take the N out of the root system. you will not be able to save the damaged leaves but there is still hope for the rest of the pplant. another thing is if you smoke dont do it by your plants and keep your humidity around 40 to 50 percent. the more fresh air being brought in the quicker you will flower. Slowly introduce the phospherous working your way up to 3/4 the amount directed on the bottle. remember when flowering you slowly want to rid of N!!!!
