Very Weird Curls Leaves!! Help Please!!

The leaves on the plant are curled downward!! Like a claw?? There is no color discoloration no nothing. Sooo weird I have no clue why and I've asked around but people don't know what's wrong. Again the leaves are curled downwards like a ball or going into a ball. It's not over or under watered. Anybody please help

Most likely too much fertilizer, specifically nitrogen if it's just the tips. Otherwise overwatering can cause the leaves to curl down also. Are the leaves dark green?

Somebody said humidity but if humidity was the case, all of them would be this way. It's just this 1 plant

This curling is sometimes referred to as "clawing" and is most likely pointing down towards the problem. Either Nitrogen toxicity, under or over watering(if the leaves feel dry and crackling then under watered), or it could be a root problem, either damage or an infection. The only thing not down below that it could be that I thought of is wind burn. Since you say it's only this one and not a watering problem, Im curious if this plant is closest to your fans and just getting beat up?

Thanks for you info man. I think it's nitrogen toxicity.

either excess (N) or root rot

sniff the pot base for clues

either way I'd be potting up to a larger pot with 50% sand or perlite

minimal water until situation eases but would be spraying/foilar ..water 2 times a day

once cleared 3-4 weeks I repot into 'normal soil'

good luck

What did you do after? The process after you noticed your plants isn't that stage ?
Go with what they told ya. I have no idea why mine went away. In my case it could easily be overwatering, as those plants were in plastic as opposed to rest in fabric pots.

There's a website with pics of plant problems of various kinds and explanations too.

Looks like coco, it has it's own issues too, use the finer grade and make sure the salt level is not too high, most today are ok though.

Is it soil? promix?

Transplant to air pruning fabric pots or milk crates lined with weed barrier, use air pruning. Google it, as good as smart pots etc

Flush before transplant and if it's soil, don't choke it with nutes, with soil only feed every couple of weeks and be careful with organic soil additives. Nute requirements vary quite a bit, my OG kush is very nitrogen sensitive and a little goes a very long way, never feed it above 700 ppm in coco coir. A buddy got a sativa in veg and the thing drinks 1200 ppm and wants more! Don't believe the directions on a three part cut it down for most indica dominate, but it varies with strain and phenotype (individual). They wanna sell more nutes start with half strength.

LED lighting and coco coir/ 30% perlite with air pruning pots works great with a hand feeding with 20% runoff. 2 day feed and 1 flush with calmag and if ya want silicate, repeat. good flush once or twice not too much though. Make sure of your ph! ph is very important for nute balance and up take, see the link I posted before. If yer using organic nute supplementation it can drop the ph too. Looks like a ph issue to me and maybe over feeding. Better to under feed and proceed with caution. Leaf tip burn is a sure sign yer too ambitious. High intensity LED lighting and high temps can exacerbate existing imbalances cause of rapid plant metabolism.
