Everything's fine until the leaves start drooping - HELP...

Leaves started drooping 5-6 days ago. Everything looks fine:

Hempy Bucket
Super Lemon Haze
pH: 6.0 - 6.1
Temps 70 - 79
Light: 180w LED
Nutes: Dyna-Gro (Protekt, Bloom, Grow, CalMag) @ 25% of the recommended strength
Vegged 2.5 weeks, now 2 weeks into flower

Now this from the bottom:


The rez water doesn't give any indicative smells of anything gone wrong (root rot). The only thing I can think is a nute deficiency of some kind, or I'm underfeeding. I'm going to up the nutes now and see what happens.

ANY IDEAS??

it's a high level of something...exactly what i do not know, also look abit over watered

We all know it's the roots.

Upping the ppm level is a bad move.

RIP little plant

Actually, it seems to have helped. It looks like 25% of the recommended feeding strength wasn't enough for this strain at this moment (the only other strain I've grown has been FMS C99, which is a notoriously light feeder). The growth above the damaged leaves is perking up finally. I'm glad I went with my gut on this.

You were correct to up the ppm's. Hempys are a very light mix and require more nutrient.
Your pics look like classic sulphur deficiency, possibly N as well. Epsom salt will help you out right now...
Also, when mixing calcium with silica as you are.... dilute them separately so they dont cause each other to precipitate out of solution. If you see little white flakes or a noticeable cloudiness after adding then you have caused an undesirable reaction.

Its a calcium deficiency, why are you feeding calcium at 25% of the recommended strength!?

Read my last post. This is only the second strain I've ever tried to grow.

Cheers man, the only other plant I've got experience with growing is FMS C99 and that plant is super easy to burn. I guess the SLH is more of a "normal" feeder. Thanks for the tip, I saw on their feeding chart something about adding the protekt first, so I've always tried to do that. Good to know why

Thats NO excuse for your idiocy

Little troll buttman111 if you want my comeback you're going to have to scrape it off your mom's teeth.

Budman, you seem like an angry dude....I have a good indica that might help you out with that.
The dude is probably new to growing....and I suspect you are too considering your incorrect diagnosis of Calcium deficiency.
