It's a sign of to heavy nutrients. Your ph should be at 5.8, your at the low level right now. Your ec should be at 500 ppm 1.0 ec for now. Just adjust it up in ph and down in ec. The new growth will improve. Cheers

Persistent issues - wilted leaves, light-green splotches, brown roots
My plant has these issues. I've rinsed off the roots in case it was nutrient buildup on roots, which I still believe to be the case. I have given this plant a good amount of nutrients the week before. Does this appear to be a deficiency? Any ideas? Thanks all for responding

Did I do the right thing? Pls check my update on this week!
Can my Growmies check my update on this week please? Ppm shot up and I noticed nute burn. Weird bc I have only added water since last week. I cleaned the pump, removed air stone and lowered ppm. Definitely seems like too much nutes - hoping they’ll perk up.

Needs water?
One plant, on the back right, is a bit droopy. The others all look perky, last water was 4 days ago. Watered again this morning after seeing the droop. Wanted to make sure it’s not another issue? What do you think?

Drooping leaves towards top of flowering
My Jack Herer Leaves are drooping towards the top of the flowering area. Not sure what this is? Over or under watering? Light stress? Temps are 27c and 52%H so nothing out of the the ordinary pH is always in the middle 6 area.,.

leaves turning down
Does the clawing on this plant means something specific is going on or is it just genetics ? It's the only plant in the tent with leaves so much turned downwards.

Should I be concerned about the curled tips on some of the leaves. Watering only when the bucket get light and switching over to mostly RO from here on due to nitrogen concerns.

Droopy leaves in coco coir?

End of Flower, Yellow and crusty leaves ok ?
Hey last weeks of flower and I’m not sure if it’s fine how they are developing, as I started flushing this week they quickly started developing yellow crusty leaves. Should I keep flushing them as I will cut them in 1 or 2 weeks or should I try to balance out missing nutrients?
