Please advise: I have a problem displaying RAW files correctly on Lightroom. The thumbnails look good before the import, but once that Camera Raw is applied when importing they turn green and are cropped. I'm shooting to the CR2 format using custom white

Open the images in iPhoto gave correctly colored final images.

iPhoto is only to display and to use the preview JPEG embedded within the raw file.

Unfortunately, the toolset is not so advanced that LR would prefer being able to edit my photos out there. Any suggestions as to why it cannot interpret the correct values in files? Camera Canon G15 btw.

If you use the auto white balance setting in the camera it is remove the Green tint in the embedded preview raw file (JPEG files). LR White Balance tool is more limited in range compared to the correction of the White Balance in the camera. On your screenshot posted the tint WB slider is set to 150 (Magenta), but clearly it is not sufficient to correct the under cast of green water. You can create a custom profile of DNG to extend LR Temp WB and range of hue as shown here:

Lightroom: Setting the white balance for underwater photography

One of the Green images issued by export to the DNG format and open it in Adobe DNG Profile Editor. The corrections described above and then name and save the new DNG profile in below the location of the folder. Restart LR to load the new profile of the camera.
