Ebb&Gro Young Plant Issues

I just moved my plants from my aerocloner into my ebb&gro bucket system about a week and a half ago. They are about 1ft tall, and getting flooded every 4-5 hours for 15 minutes.

Some of the leaves on a handful of the plants are showing bad signs.. Not sure if its a deficiency or a toxicity or something else. The leaves with signs have reddish spots on them, some have crispy tips, others have thick ruffled jagged looking leaves but I don't think it's from the lights because they are like 4-5 feet above them.

My PPMs right now are at 750-800ppm and my pH is between 5.8-6.2.. Is that too high of PPM for plants this age? Perhaps I should be giving them less base nutes? But I'm already running quite a bit lower than suggested on the bottle (I'm running AN grow micro bloom).

Does anybody have an idea what this might be? Thanks!

just a guess did the leaves get any fluids from the resivor while changing over ? could be a nitrogen overload.. try a cali/mag in the res and see if that hels out. what did the roots look and smell like>?? possible root rot you can use hydrogen peroxide to clean them up and it helps oxidize them a lil also oh and last but not least ,, pics pics oh and pics would help tremendously

No they did not get any Res water while changing.. yes I could try calmag good idea.. no it's not root rot cuz they were white when I put em in a week and a half ago. Can't use hydrogen peroxide because I use beneficials and it would kill the beneficials. Sorry for lack of pics I'm posting from my phone but ill try to snap some tonight or tomorrow.

But anyhow, what is the typical PPM for a young plant that has just been transplanted from Aero cloner to the ebb&gro bucket system? Again they're like a foot tall.. Is 750-800 too high?
