Puffy 3 fan Leafs all of a sudden

Hey everyone, having a little trouble in my veg room, I'm running canna coco as well as canna nutes with drip clean and calimagic.Average feed is around 1.1 EC and average temp of veg is 68 degrees F directly under the 8 bulb t5. The veg is located in an open part of the basement with a light hung from the ceiling, no tent or enclosure, have a fan blowing air on the plants under the t5, Starting to see only 3 fan leaves on all new growth, leafs are also fat, puffy and discolored a bit, anyone ever seen leafs like this? I know it could probably be a slew of things but I'm assuming temperature or something with the feed..the max min reading did tell me that it got down to 51 degrees at one point.

No idea but if that happened to me my first thought would be bad genetics especially if they are from the same pheno.

Theyre not always "bad" genetics. One of my best strains always does ones and threes. But i do agree its probably genetics. I had a friend look at my one and three leafer and he said it was caused by stress but my plants had and have a pretty optimal growing space so i kinda doubt thats the case. Either way, treat em good and dont worry too much about it.

Let me preface this by saying I am a beginner so I may be wrong. It seems as though there is not enough/locked out cal/mag. The brown spots on the leaf look like calcium deficiency and the up curled leaf looks like magnesium. I've heard only a happy plant will grow 5/7/9/11 leaves fans so if pH is off (5.8 for coco) it could be causing enough stress for them to grow that way. Being as how its coco I would water them well with 1/4 strength ph'd nutes and start over from there as far as feeding, as coco is pretty easy to "flush". Hope it works out for ya.

I have also heard that happy plants grow more fans but I have been checking the EC of the runoff as well as using drip clean and it all seems to be in a relatively good range, the clones were healthy when I got them and all had 5 fans at least, the guy who gave me them put them in solo cups of "moonshine64 "( an amended nutrient coco blend )and I'm thinking that the nutes from that cup may have run dry and its switching over to just my canna nutes causing a strange reaction, idk just throwing that out there as a possibility. Also I have 6 cuts of another strain and those guys are a little puffy as well but they are throwing out 5 fan leafs with green growth.
