Whats your pH at? Is it possible you over ferted the plant? Usually clawing like that can be an indicator of over fert.

I guess it could be heat stress, I guess I'm used to seeing the clawing go the other way.

i don't have a water schedule. I look for plants to show me they need watering. I am grow 8 plants under two 400 watt hps...

I am in a fox farms ocean forest soil. Using 5 gallon buckets from Lowes. I am using fox farm bloom nutes...

I don't think I am over feeding her because we haven't done a full mixture yet. always 50-75% strength. We did have mold, but we used the serenade spray.

Hairs on the top turned brown and I thought that was from burning, and moved it down. Then she started clawing...but even buds that weren't close to lamps are clawing...

Could it be a lack of nutrients?

hey dude. what seed bank is your BB from? i have the same thing going on with my BB. my seeds came from http://marijuana-seeds.nl/. I think i am going to back off on nutriets for a bit and just hope that is genetics too. The buds are still growing

still doing my 1st grow, i planted 6 random bag seeds in my hydro set, one dude he is dead, the other a hermi it is dead, then two sativa plants and two idica plants made it one of the sativas looks just like your plant i moved it from the light check water ph is 5.8 ppm1500 no mites none of that no nute burn plants where doing great, i say keep taking care of it. my buds stoped growin on that one plant. no red or orange hairs still nice long white hairs. weird shit man. i am gonna give mine till i pull the rest.

Yeah they are staying white, except for the top bud which had its hairs turn brown...

This is a Dj Blueberry, and it is the only plant that seems to be doing this....

Looked it up and doesn't fall into any categories of normal deficiencies.
from the one pic it looks like a Nitrogen Toxicity

How much N are you feeding?

could also be that other nutes are being locked out by an improper balance

they are staying white and seem to bit a little bit longer but the flower leafs are curling and drying out roots look healthy plants getting plenty off water and lots of air time.

what type of nitrogen would be an more important question NH4 causes the curling
 
man ive had exactly the same problem for aaaaages, even worse than yours appears - some of my leaves have done a complete circle at the tips! still yet to find an answer.

this is my first grow, but from the research ive done, posts ive read and things ive tried, personally i have deduced these as the two most likely causes (in my case anyway)

1. over ferting from day 1 - causing nute lockout its whole life. never getting any nutes let alone the extra ones i tried to give it just adding to the problem, causing the leaves to get no help at all. i finally decided to do something proactive about the problem last night by flushing it, awaiting results of this.

2. bad genetics - the rest of my plant is nice and healthy, the leaves apart from being dry and curly, are fine. its budding, slowly - probably caused by the nute lockout.

everything has taken AGES with my grow as well as the curly leaves, and i think that's a combination of the strain being super silver haze, the nute lockout and bad genetics. my seeds were mega mega cheap from a less well known website, 1 of 6 seeds germed.

It seems for me that I have 'killed it with kindness' - its not dead at all its fine apart from the leaves, but that's the expression you know lol. I personally will not add any ferts to my next grow until my plant shows me it needs them - after all, most if not all commercial soils have enough nutes in them already to sustain healthy growth for the first 6 weeks.

And once again the expression "you get what you pay for" has the chance to shout "i told you so".

It's a weird problem though, cos i do have a few leaves in random places that are beautiful, just as they should be. certainly is an odd one. One thing i've tried is trimming off the curled tip of the leaf, just to where the leaf flattens out. i did it at the top of one of my stems, and it didnt seem to mind. perked them up if anything - but i doubt it has any real benefit, and its not a solution to the problem... just looks nicer lol.

Anyway, hope you find a resolution to this, and if you do, let me know man!
