Best Guess on Leaf Issue

I guessing slightly too much nutrients. Do you use a ppm and ph meter? If so how many ppms and what the ph? Are you growing in dirt or hydro? More info can really help with the response

Growing in an amended soil with very light fertilizer.
At 4 weeks of age I started using DynaGro 9-3-6 at 25% strength.
Plants are Berry Ryder autos 6 weeks old.
I don't use a ppm meter, just ph my water

I googled hot soil but came up with nothing. I thought it looked like a phosphorus deficiency but I don't know 100% if it is so was hoping someone would have a better idea.

high soil ph is my guess, causes those thick 3d leaves, thats not nute burn. its some kind of lockout caused by high ph

bugs lol yeah check for bugs go buy a 500x microscope. i believe there are some bugs only can see like that, hemp russets maybe?

high ph is causing phousphorous to be locked out, the excess phosphourous is also causing zinc and copper uptake to be inhibited which is causing the 3d twisted leaves.

Post pics of the entire plant, not just the leaf in question. This has nothing to do with too much nitrogen, or as some are suggesting phosphorus lock out due to what? high ph? So many guesses that make no sense lol. If ph was too high, and causing phosphorus lockout, then calcium as well would be locked out! This can be one of a couple things, but more pics are needed to see how the plant looks. For now, this can be too much phosphorus,not too little. Possible magnesium deficiency, or lockout, smaller chance that it can be either too much manganese, or not enough boron. Since the latter two are needed in small amounts, it likely would be there as long as your nutes have them, but maybe being locked out...if it's one of those 2 elements. More pics, can help diagnose the issue better!
Also, this doesn't appear to have anything to do with bugs..i don't know where or how people pull off such guesswork..do you have a spin the wheel for problems and just choose the one it lands on to diagnose?

These pics aren't very clear but the rest of the plant looks fine to me. Just a few bad looking lower leaves.
Water is my well water that I've always used for growing, ph is about 7
Don't think they're mites because the other leaves look fine?
The plant isn't struggling, so it's not serious. I was just hoping for a definitive diagnosis.

It's hard to say 'definitively', but based on these last 2 pics, i would say it's a slight touch of overfeed with either phosphorus or potassium that's causing a lockout. Doesn't look serious, for now anyways.

looks like lacking p to me,lay off the k if u can,like if using any seaweed product.but what ever u do please don't flush lol also that 7 ph is a bit high do u grow soiless like coco or pro-mix?
