I have the same/similar issues at more advanced stage but these are only hours away from being chopped now, these pics taken 3 or 4 days ago. all the same strain, belladonna and grown in soiless mix, fed with AN range yet some of her sisters look almost lush in comparison. they all had exact same treatment, feeding schedule so its a bit puzzling. I know not the cause or the cure though im afraid, hoping to find out for sure here in case it happens next time as their clones are now a few weeks old and ready to replace them.

I always figured those leaves came from too much bloom nutes. Have you ever calibrated your ppm meter?

I don't use one mate and never have, my bad I know and not down to expense or availability, just never have. Maybe I should invest eh?

No I haven't calibrated mine as yet. I got a HM TDS EZ pen that came calibrated. I have been meaning to make a trip to the hydro shop to pick some up but I haven't been able to as yet.
I'm in soil however use FF exclusively..the 5.5 tsp of GB and 2 T of BB per what? Gallon? If so, IMO WAAAAAAAY too much..you have to use FF at 1/4 to 1/2 of label or u burn the shit out of them..also don't use distilled..either R/O or spring water..you can google PH of your local spring water..NEVER nute when they have droopy leaves or you'll end up with bud so burnt you cant smoke no how, no way..I'll post a pic of what that looks like..nothing worse after all those months, but I learned the hard way and kept that grow as a reminder. Everyone seems to use Cal-Mag, which has iron in it also..at 1 tsp/gallon EVERY WATER..checkout my journal to see results using the ratios I just gave you.

Thanks a lot really appreciate the advice of someone using FF. Yeah I guess overfeeding the FF nutes along with my girls sharing a res has been the problem. Yeah the amounts I stated have been per gallon. Is it? Well they kept displaying deficiency signs so I wasn't sure what to do since all three were growing at different rates. As of now my ppm is at 365- I flushed them for a day 2 days ago and gave them a low dose after.
How do you know how much of TB, BB, or GB to use? And in what ratios? I will check out your journal now
There's a feeding schedule if you go to their website you can print and what's on the schedule I start with 1/4 to 1/2 and even with 1/2 label I start to see fan tip crisp each strain is different but going with 1/4 usually gets the job done..give your plants time to recover from flush under nute is easy to fix..over nute and you can destroy everything you've been working for..less is more.Thanks a lot really appreciate the advice of someone using FF.
