I searched via Google already and i think its a Potassion Lockout..... Plant is sitting on Soil getting Ph of 6.0-6.2 runnoff is 6.1-6.2 and i use Greenhouse Powder Feeding Indica which has a N-p-k ratio of 16-6-26.

Here some Pics the Girl is in week 3 flower and she shows that signs on several(3-4) Fan Leafes.

Ill hope someone has a Solution for this....here are the Pics CM140813-19465101.jpg CM140813-19472302.jpg
 
When the leaves curl down, I thing N toxicity or heat stress, but I'm not familiar with the nutes you're using, can't be sure

It could also be overwatering
 
you got a lot of shit locked out bro! your gonna wanna water in with like 7.2 next time. yeah your gonna wanna get ur soil ph up to like 6.8 in flowering. just what I would do im sure you will get more opinions soon. good luck
 
It does look like a bit of P and K deficiencies. While your run off is a bit low, it's not to the point where P and K would be locked out, so something else must be going on. Those really aren't good NPK ratios for an auto plant in flower. Too much N and not enough P. A few questions. What kind of soil are you using, how often are you feeding and at what strength? Are you giving enough water to get at least 10% run off. Also, please post some pictures of the whole plant so we can see what the rest of it looks like.
 
Muddy first of all its no Autoflower its a Sativa Plant Clone Only im working with. Soil is Premium Soil from Garden Store feedint is at 1/4 of the Adviced Strenght Feeding is N-N-W in a 3 days Schedule and jep runoff is out 10-15 %. Pics of the Whole Lady comin later when the Lights go on over here. And the NPK ratio of the Powder Feed worked proper for yrs over here in Testing for Gh/Sh. I only had Calmag issues as there was no Cal added in this Stuff so i had to give it extra. Worked on Autos aswel on Photos. I think its the Soil could be that its not airy enough to give the roots a breathe i have 11 clones of that Lady in Veg atm on Coco no props all healthy green and fast growing.

Even for a photo plant I'm not crazy about those NPK ratios. High levels of K can cause cal/mag issues. What is that Premium soil composed of?
 
It wasnt the Powder Feed Indica it was Powder Feed Hybrids as she is Hybrid Strain. I grabbed the wrong Pack when i was looking for the NPK ratio of it lol. The Hybrids has excatly all theese Incridents....
15% N Total Nitrogen
10% NS Nitrogen Nitrate
5% NA Nitrogen Ammoniacal
7% P2O5 Nitrogen Phosphorus
22% K2O Soluble Potassium
3.6% Mg Soluble Magnesium(=3.6% Mg)
0.03% B Soluble Boron
0.002% Cu Soluble Copper (as Chelate form EDTA)
0.12% Fe Soluble Iron (as Chelate form EDTA)
0.05% Mn Soluble Manganese (as Chelate from EDTA)
0.005% Mo Soluble Molybdenum
0.01% Zn Soluble Zinc (as Chelate from EDTA)

The Soil might be the Problem cause i did not saw it was made for Outdoor Plants and has a Proper Ferts for 12 Weeks Lifecycle....My fault Sry Baby.... I will go to the Growshop after work tomorrw to get some Canna Flush to clean the Soil and start new on the quater Dosage of the Hybrid Pf. The Clones on Coco do so much better and grow proper so for me its 2 Things i avoid in Future....Jiffys and Soil form the Gardenstore...... Back to the Coco where i was the last 5 yrs of Growing.
 
I tend to agree that the soil is probably the issue. The high levels of nutrients it contains, combined with what you've been feeding.
 
Muddy im on way to Growshop i a min. U think u should give her e light flush with Canna Flush and then start again with the feedings. I also looked at the Roots and i saw that the soil barely dries out at the lowest ends of the Pod so i decided to get a lil bit of the Canna under it for better drainage. Defo never the Garden Store Soil again next time i rather wait few days till i can ride to the Growshop to get some Coco.
 
I hate to flush as it tends to stress the plants, but in your case it might not be a bad idea.
