Does this plant look wacky?

Hi again. I have 3 white widows growing and they are four weeks old now. One looks alright, kinda like some photos I have seen of white widows at that age. But, the others look really odd. I'm starting to suspect they are hermies but I haven't researched enough yet to tell, haven't even learned how to tell sex yet. Anyway, they are much smaller and more compact not spreading out. Also they are growing like an in grown toenail, sort of in on itself. Not to mention the leaves are weirdly wrinkled and has some strange color spots. Can someone please take a look and tell me if I should kill these off? The pics are of just one but they look similar. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :hump:

Spots could be from nutrient burn, we're u added nutrients to the water and spilled it loon a leaf were the light burned it, if u think this isn't the case get some cal mag and read up on water amounts and soil saturation so u don't over water the plants. Sex of plant can't be determined unroll u switch the light cycle to 12/12 that's when the plants show sex or in some cases per flowering can occur also something u should look up. The more u know the better your plants can be

Thank you sir. I have Jorge Cervantes bible but I get more out of what's on the internet. I'm completely new and trying to take it all in at once plus been working too much to really dig in. I don't think I spilled any nutes on the leaves but I'll check out the cal mag. So you think this plant looks healthy I mean recoverable?

Interesting... the reason I say that is because the Pheno-type of WW that I have is a nute whore. It sucks up everything. That is not to say u have the same pheno. If I where u I would flush readjust my PH in the soil and water ur using and then cut ur nute doses in half. The cal mag will help make it green, but usually mag def's are coupled with purple veins and stems. i would first try the flush and nute adjustment. And I think they can certainly recover if u find and correct ur problem quickly. Good Luck and Happy smoking :bigjoint:

The plants will recover see weed is a very forgiving plant and is very resilient so keep at it and make your ladies happy

tells us what nutes and how much you used, in case it is fert burn. and if it is i wouldn't worry to much about at this stage because your plants are so young they will out grow it and those leaves will become bottom leaves and not count for very much anyway. i would not flush or do anything right now that can cause other issues. like gene krantz said "lets not make things worse by guessing".

i notice they are outside. if you had them under indoor light and then put them in the sun to stay, that will often cause burn to the plant because its not used to the sun's intensity. if that's the case, you should bring them in and put them out only a few minutes a day, longer each time over the course of a week so they can slowly get used to the intensity. then you can leave them out for good.

also i wouldn't worry about your leaf formation either. sometimes they take a little time to unfurl nicely because the nodes are pretty close together. they look pretty tight to me. no need to worry about them being a hermi, you're a long way from that.

Thank you all. They are outside because I wanted a pic with natural light to see how weird the leaves are looking in color. They are growing inside under 250w leds. As for the nutes: It's veg week 2 and I'm using 9 ml per gallon of botanicare cns17 grow.
