I took a bunch of photos.

I flushes Plants with Fox Farm Sledggammer at 7.0 PH. Reverse Osmosis water

Initial run off is 6.0 on all affected plants..which isn't too bad IMO.

New growth is stunted. And leaves look fragile and won't open up

I've heard bad thing s about flushing with sledge hammer. I use the fox farm trio and don't use the sledgehammer, I feed-feed then water. Make sure you are not over watering or over using to many nutrients, use alittle less then what's recommended. Looks abit like over watering plus some heat stress maybe.

It's not the best. I know. I just didn't have time.

I really don't think I'm overwatering

I'm watering every 4 days. So I don't thik that's it.

Im thinking ota to stagneny. The air. I feel like the plants are suffocating. Any other suggestions
You need a way of getting them fresh air or running some kind of c02. Keep good air flow, get a fan if you have to, maybe even an exhaust fan so it's sucking that stale air out of the grow area!

Do you think I need more air movement.

I think more air movement and less water

I'm good g to keep you updated.
I wouldn't start under watering but maybe less strengths on nutes, and I think you should be fine with the air flow in your area.

First ... You flushed , no real reason to .
Second .... You flushed with RO water - which is already stripped of calcium and mag.

Keep ph at 6.5 not 7.0 ... Using LEDs will require you to use CALMAG , plants under LEDs don't transpire like a hid light , so adding CALMAG during its grow will be apparent.

Sledgehammer strips the shit out of the soil medium .... You would have done better with plain water. Plus the fact that you now left with an overwatered and already stressed plant.

I just ph TAP water and rarely have to " tweak " it with CALMAG .
Your soil may have been severely stripped , you could foliar a light mix of Nutes to help bring her around ...

I have a 6 ft tall plant, I'm using a 1000 watt HPS light and the plant is 35 days into flower. Is their any reason my plant is flowering from the bottom up?? Like I have decent buds forming on lower colas, the cola closest to the light looks about 15 days into flower.

I use general hydroponics CAL MAG.
