Hi everyone. I’m a first time autoflower grower. I have 9 going now outdoors. I have one that is northern lights x big bud auto. The leaves seem to be funky looking. Idk if you can see in this pic I will try to get a better pic. But it’s the far back left one. If you look you can see the leaves in question. Tia.

Well you are on top of this. That is cool.

Now I have had some (2) Alien Rock Candy growing that were acting a little upset like your plant seems to be. All the while I had two Sour Banana Sherbet and one Double Durban Kush were just loving life. Humidity and temperature were all squared up as was evident from the three other plants.
Just to see what would happened I dropped the temp a few degrees and a couple days later increased the humidity a little and let and the issue went away. And it didn't hurt the other plants development.
It doesn't sound like you have given it too much nitrogen. And unless you're roots are getting crowded. That's what I would try first. That and the epsom salts.
But anyway I hope you get her straightened out or it just grows out of it! Good luck friend!

Just want to say thanks to everyone for all the suggestions.

I might try raising the humidity some to lower the VPD. That is pretty easy for me to control and i don't think the other plants will mind the decrease in transpiration seeing that it is a little high right now anyways.

Also regarding your epsom salt suggestion Jimmip, Is this because you think there is a Mag/sulfer deficiency? Or is there another reason for using epsome salt?

Well it cant hurt, lol. But realistically because it can facilitate better uptake of phosphorus and potassium in already stressed plants. It helps with (as I am sure you have read by now) a whole heap of things and at the recommended dose really cant do anything harmful.
A friend of mine has also experienced these same symptoms lately. And he didn't yet have the ability to adjust the humidity (he does now). I gave him the same suggestion and it was night and day.
Anyway, it might help and it won't hurt anything to try.
In the end your plant doesn't look that bad.
You did mention something that has me thinking that its really not much to worry about though.
You said the mother was exhibiting the same symptoms and growing at a similar rate to other un-symptomatic plants around her. That being acknowledged, there are different strains more prone to display clawing than most others. And they can do just fine with it. I would adjust humidity a bit, apply a dose of epsom to the soil and one in a foliar spray and let it roll for a few days. Or just pick one of the two, (for me that would be the epsom) and go from there. Either way they are your plants and the final actions are up to you. I hope all goes well friend. Good luck.
