How to correct what is going on? So a week or so back my plant showed signs on nute toxicity, clawed leaves and burnt tips. So the last 3 irrigations I have not used any nutes, just ph'd water. I also had an issue with the soil ph being too high so I was trying to bring that...

high bro, your runoff does not show you the EC or pH from the soil. In order to check the EC and pH from your soil you need to follow these steps. 1. Collect samples of soil from the test area. (The soil should be taken from the same depth below the surface each time you test.) It is suggested to take at least two samples per test. The more samples, the more accurate the measurement will be. Take more samples around your plant and mix them. You will get a homogenous sample. 2. Take the homogeneous sample. Weigh out 1 unit soil (100 g is recommended) 3. Add 2 unit (200 ml) distilled water to it. 4. Stir the sample for 30 seconds. 5. Let it sit for 15 minutes. 6. Filter liquid into clean cup. 7. Stir it again, then take your measurement with EC and pH meter. Hold the electrode in the sample min. 1 minute before the reading. When you did this you know how much the EC and pH really are inside your soil. If this is too much work for you then just flush the soil with 2 times the pot volume in water with the right pH and EC. Enjoy your grow buddy!

All the details are in my diary but I am growing in a 3gal fabric pot. FFOF soil/perlite mix. PPFD at the top of the plant is around 400 right now. I can answer any other questions if it helps the plan forward. Thanks in advance.

So I finally get a PPM/EC meter and checked out what was going on. Today I got readings of 260 ppm in my runoff which leads me to think my plant is very underfed. So my question is the next steps to have a healthier plant. Do I just feed with something like 1000 PPM nutes next irrigation or what should I do?
