As you can see, top growth looks pretty good ..for the most part. Newer growth shows some brown tips, which I'm sort of at a loss about at this point, but some are coming up nice and healthy..
The fan leaves that I cut of were underneath all that top growth. Mid-level fan leaves (not shown) are somewhat puffy and slightly deforming with that claw look. Basically, it looks like anything under the top growth appears to have some problem or another. I left two lower level fan leaves, which are showing browning and deformation problems, that look better than the others I chopped. I'll eventually trim but will keep an eye on those.
At this point I'm torn since I've been and continue to be having problems since day 24. First it was green pasty blotchy spots and some browned tippage, then it escalated into deforming leaves, new growth with brown tips and ultimately the browning and yellowing of the primary fans leaves. My first grow hasn't been without challenge, but new top growth makes me feel as if there is still a chance this plant may produce...
Lastly, based on some of my more recent observations, it seems that part of my problems may simply due to lack of necessary light since all the leaves underneath all the top growth seem to be the most affected with problems. But I'm confused by the seriousness of the problems I'm seeing. PH has been ok but I think I started the nutes too early. But I flushed two weeks ago and should be correcting any possible salt build ups and nute locks. So with what looks like a number of deficiencies I've given the plant nutes last feeding anyway and will continue to every other feeding and plan to bud it within the next week or so.
