Twisting leafs?

My twisted leaves turned out to be a calcium deficiency. The spots didn't show up on the leaves till a few days after the leaves got twisted.
I did have calcium in the soil, but my PH got too low.
I am not telling you what to do, but just sharing my experience with twisted leaves..completed 7 grows
what I have learned so far:
environment maters more than nutrients
at least a dab of nutrients in every watering
effective flushing before harvest is critical to quality

The color does look a little off in natural light, almost sort of bluish, like the pH is off. It's pretty dark so I'm not sure it needs overall higher levels of nutrients, especially if you're in soil which will naturally contain some amount of nutrients. When plants are low on nutrients they tend to get pale all over or get covered in spots/deficiencies, not dark green without many spots. What is the pH of the water that comes out the bottom? Is it coming out higher or lower than 6.5? What growing medium are you in, and what nutrients are you using? If you're worried the LED might still be too close, it can't hurt to move it up another inch or two just to see if that helps. Overall it doesn't look too bad
