Kinda looks like a nitrogen issue due to lock out. What is the ph of the water before it goes in and what is the ph of the run off water? I assumed soil grow from the picture correct?
The ph of the soil is 6.5-7, i use tap water, but let it sit out for 24 hrs. Should i check the water before watering it?

I would check the water right before it is used next watering but let the soil dry a bit more then usual then water so you can catch the drainage water out the bottom then check the ph of that water and see if it dips or rises or stays the same. You want the run off to be around 6.8 to 7 max. If it dips down below say 6.5 or above 7 then you can get nutrient lock out which is kinda what this looks like.If its low then water with higher ph water say 8 once or twice then back to 7 ph and keep testing runoff if its coming out high then you drop the starting ph to 6 ish for bit.Flush good with either to raise or lower to that 6.8 ish sweet spot.
No its growing really fast. I had it outside for a long time, but it was too cold and in shock but when I moved it inside it blew up. Now it growing very rapidly since i got a 400 w light

I've gotten similar symptoms on my plants for my last 3 grows and it happens after rapid growth. I suspect it's calmag but I'm not sure. I'm doubling my calmag from 5 to 10 mg and it seems to be helping.

The soil is 6.5-7. I have been feeding it nutes through out the grow. I am going to start checking the water and runoff too
