You should scope for mites, 200x

Either a watering/humidity issue.. Perhaps pH... All always a possibility. Or, more likely, by the signs in the pic, a root/mite issue. Where'd the clone come from? For 1. And for 2. what are you doing to treat/quarantine until you're sure they're clean?

Scope where exactly? I have a shitty handheld that only goes to 75x. I looked too n bottom of a few leaves n didn’t see anything. It came from SVG on strainly. I did not quarantine

You want to scope the underside of the leaves with at least a 100x scope, but even then, if it’s russets, 100x might not be strong enough. You should absolutely start spraying with whatever IPM solutions (non-toxic) you have until you can get a more powerful scope
All I have is neem oil but have not sprayed. Dude said he treats everything with lost coast and all clones are looking good with new vigor growth including the one with taco leaves. I have other plants started from seed in low humidity displaying these wrinkled taco leaves also so maybe it’s my environment

Try and find a stronger scope to confirm whether you’re dealing with mites. If you have pests it’s too late to quarantine. Strip fan leaves and burn them. Spray everything heavily every day for the next couple weeks. Get some additional products to rotate through for the next couple weeks. If you’re diligent you can beat any pest pressure
thx bro

Another product to use is wettable sulfur but don’t spray with neem if you plan to use it

You can cut a few leaf samples, then take a dark cup and put in some soapy water. Dunk the leaf samples in the water, agitate (wash them), then wait a while until the soap bubbles dissipate. Sometimes you can spot the russets floating in the solution.
Edit…I have heard that neem does not work on russets. Have no experience with it though.

Should I take the affected leaves?
I had intended the majority of this to be used outside in raised beds but I’m thinking about just getting certified organic mix by the cubic yard n saving some of this to try my hand at a living soil mix for some cannabis indoors. I’ve only used salts before so I’m gonna mix up a small test batch to try on a couple plants
I’m gonna try this thx

Yes take a leaf from here and there. But also the first unaffected leaves too.
I should probably add that you will likely still need a magnifying glass or loupe to see them in the cup if they are there, but 20-30x (60 if you have my eyes lol) should be enough.
