PPM little over 400 now. All in check. Dark green curled tips. N tox? 50/50 leaves with tip curl. Ideas?

Ummm Chow13 - raising flora micro will add significant amounts of N.. if you’re trying to dial back N with flora trio you dial back the micro. Micro is 5-0-1 Gro is 2-1-6 Bloom is 0-5-4 I guess it’s just a sensitive auto.. it does appear to be N tox but I wouldn’t react to significantly. Personally in this scenario with hydro, I would add 10-15% or so of fresh pHd water to drop that EC a bit.. Looks very good overall otherwise tho.

Hey Growmie, No question this is Nitrogen toxicity. The dark green leaves and curled tips are a dead giveaway. Feel free to shoot me a holler if you ever need any help, I'd be honored to assist you. Hopefully, this was helpful, and remember ... "Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

Yep that is a N toxicity try to follow the charts provided by general hydroponics. Lower tour flora grow to 2.1 and raise the flora micro to 2.5.

Seedling curving down and turning pale green The leaves of my two seedlings are curving down and it turns a little bit palw green. I think I overwatered the first days, but now it looks like the substrate is really dry (I didn't watered the last 2 days) but I'll wait a little more. So is it the problem or I miss something ?

Advise to flush or feed in Veg Does this is look like a nute burn, deficiency, or ph problem? The two plants that are growing a tad taller have had yellowing tips some curling downward. Don’t want to overreact and cause it to worsen, they’re looking healthy otherwise. Any advise whether to flush or feed?
