I also agree with either mechanical damage or damage from water sitting, and direct light with no airflow.(lighting looks indoors, so I assume no strong airflow).

My Onc. Twinkle Pink Profusion, smells like cheap chocolate. It's been undemanding, but definitely not as strong as the Onc. Sharry Babies I've smelled at various greenhouses.

My 4x4 is adequately lit with 120w LED. When I move to a 5x5, I anticipate being around 160w-180w.

I'd look for two 48" bars in the 100w range, or a COB system in the 200-250w.

Jeff214, from leaf axil to topmost bud is approximately 30". A fair trade-off to get the wavy petals and sepals. They do well potted too.
