What is she telling me?

Anyone know what she’s going through? Four weeks old, using tap water with hydroguard and GH FloraTrio nutrients. PH seems to go up from around 5.6 to 6.1 in a matter of hours. Ppm=635 EC=1.2 right now. Been going very easy on nutes, about half strength still. Could that be it?
Solved
Leaves. Edges burnt
Leaves. Curl up

I feel it could be more your lights. Your diary appears to say 150w in a 2x2 that You increased from 25% to 75%. That’s a jump of 300%. Maybe do that in flower but you are still in veg. If height gain is minimal and the leaves are curling at the edges then possibly the light is too intense. Try 24” away and 40% building up to 100% in flower with the light at 16-18”. Get the free Photone app. It’s not bad. You may require a diffuser but that is just a price of normal notepad paper over the camera. Ph should drift bit over a week not hours. Not sure on that one? Make sure meter is calibrated regularay

She's screaming, "AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!" LOL. The closest thing i see is a Mo deficiency on my leaf chart, but this would be rare. Whether in soil or using hydro nutes in a soilless/hydro context, should have plenty of trace elements. 6.1 is not a problem. It may need a slightly different ratio.. a few percent different here or there. e.g. may need less Ca at 6.1 than 5.6. Looks like it started as interveinal damage and progressed to what we see here... only at bottom most leaf. looks fairly unclear.. more info needed. some general ballpary ppms you want for your nutes 120-130N, 60P, 180+K, 100+Ca, 60-80Mg, 100+S if near that.. it's not the formula at fault. that works well around 6pH and likely anything within a 2-3 tenths of that. If drastically off on any of that, adjust and see how it goes. This is a weak level of nutes. some plants may want more. drop the n near 100-110 after 2-3 weeks from flip/flower phase start. pH swings can be the faultof the fertilizer. Good hydro fertilizer should be resistant to pH swings with proper buffering. This is the manufactuer's fault, if so.
