I take it back, I just looked at your journal. Try to get your pH down to 5.8. The red stems are from the low temperature. If you can get that up to the 75-78°F range, you'll be in better shape. Increasing pH at this point is usually due to underfeeding. Increase you ppms to 550, but do a res change first to be sure you have the proper nute amounts. Your fluctuating pH will cause uptake of certain nutes but not others so you really have no idea what nutes your res has left and what its run out of. The res change isn't completely necessary, but I would do it.

Also the nutes listed on your diary can't be accurate. According to your diary, you are running at about 90% nutrients and 10% water.

I think the most likely scenario is you are overfeeding. If the pH is dropping like a stone, then this is most likely. The red stems at this stage are probably due to your light being too close.

Ph fluctuating is your problem. Fix that get that in the correct range without major swings and all those deficiency will clear up. Sad part is if you would flower all those symptoms probably just get worse.
