Hmm, hard to tell.

My first response was to say that sometimes the lower leaves have troubles keeping nutes in em since the energy is going to the top leaves that are getting all of the light.

That said, there are a few different things which could be going on.

It sort of looks like a nute issue. And if that's the case, the best way to handle it is to make sure you're flushing your system as much as possible.

This way, you can make sure you're not overloading since it's so much easier to add back nutes. Sort of start over. Plants can handle it, IMHO.

The rest of the leaves seem to be looking pretty good, so I'm guessing your room isn't a problem. But just to be sure, make sure you're checking your humidity, your temp, your pH, and your lighting is on par for the grow you want to achieve.

Check back in to tell us what you've found out.

Well, im just a noob, but when mine were seedlings I planted them up to those two little leaves on the bottom, yours look way too tall and thin. put more soil in there with some perlite, check yer ph, and make sure the light is as close as u can get it with your hand being comfy atop the plant..

not sure if it matters or not, although im sure it does. these are not chronic or some dank ass buds i got from internet, these are just reg old mids seeds that swim found in a nice sack. so swim threw seeds in a bucket with soil, and keeps em watered. no ph tests or anything like that is done. the water is left out to evap the chlorine. thats bout it. bongsmilie (this is an outdoor grow. threw seeds in pots. keep em drinking, and left outside)

edit... i been doing some thinking. we live here in southwest florida. i had my shirt off the other day (winter) and could feel the burn after about 10 minutes. so maybe the plants got a little too hot? and there are couple other people i thought were watching em to water em. but turns out only swim. so maybe swim forgot to water em a couple days. i think maybe the extra heat and no water could have done this. not sure though, and nobody else seems to know either. this is the 3rd canna forum ive been to, everyone just says "damn thats a f-k-d up plant..." and thats it.

You're over watering. At least the top inch of the soil should be DRY before you water again.

It really won't hurt to let the soil dry out before watering again. May actually promote new root growth.

yea i usually wait until a good layer of the soil is dry before i water it again, and i dont really use much water at all. just a little splash here and there to damp the soil. someone said it was a sickness and to keep it away from the others?

anyone got any ideas? its getting better and its not crispy, but the leaves are scarred, outline of it where it was burned and has a heal marked spot where there was a hole. their still a little wilted but i think it may be getting better. swim didnt flush because of the massive rain we got here in swfl the other day. soil is still wet. what should swim do if a rain storm comes thru heavily outside? move em inside or let em get the rain. thanks
