Twisted leaves? What's wrong with my plant?

Growing 6 girls, 5 of them are perfect, but I've been having issues with 1 of them for awhile now, and nothing seems to be improving. All of the bud sites are also really weak looking. I don't know how to describe it, they just don't look right at all (compare it to my other plants)

Been pH'in the water in the range of 6.2 - 6.8. Soilless mix soil, and it's been fed foxfarm nutrients.

In the last few weeks the highest it has gotten is 80. At night the temps go to 68 ish. I don't believe it's heat stress because all my other plants are fine.


I also noticed those little white specs on the leaves. It's probably related to whatever the problem is?

I'm thinking thrips...

Your damage looks pretty severe. I would not agree with tabl (probably ever, that guy is all noob all day).

The spotting on your leaves is a pretty big indicator that there is some kind of infection. Be it bugs or mold. I've never had to deal with bugs so my first hand experience is very limited.

What I'm pretty certain of is that this is not nutritional or environmental. Take a look around in the bug sections.

I spotted no bugs on her when I checked her. I'll give her a better look in a bit. It just puzzles me, because if it was bugs, I would believe that the other plants would get infected too. But I could be wrong. She's looked like that for over a couple weeks now too.

it looks to me like your plant has a slight mutation. the twisted leaves and unexplainable leave defects are common signs. try not to worry though i had the same problem recently and she flowered perfectly with a great yeild.

so it's definitely spider mites upon closer inspection, and that plant has been touching the other plants :( im so sad

Your temperature does not seem excessive enough for heat issues but the leaf shape and dried out tips does look like heat issues. White spots could be from any one of several different insect critters and it could be early signs of light bleaching, which tends to go hand in hand with heat issues.

Overall room temperature is one thing but what is the normal/consistent temperature at your plants canopy height when your light has been on for a good number of hours? Hang a thermometer near the tops of your plants and monitor it for a few days and see what the temperature is at that location and level.
