HELP:Pictures of my deficiency problem !!!!!!!!

I have had these mums for maybe 2 months now. They came from healthy clones from my Herijuana and Basic Beer grow. I am useing Techna Flora 3 steps nutes. My ph floats between 5.5-6.2 PPM is 1130. I run rockwool coverd in hydroton all pretty much washed through and used well. Top feed drip 3 times a day for 15 min.There under a 2 foot 4 lamp T5 about 4 inches away. These strains have all been through this before, meaning Ive grown this method last round pretty much and was cool. Only difference this round is I use a lower strength solution because of the smaller plants Im keeping. Sooo if this is a lack of nute I can see, but burn Im not so sure BUUUT is possible ?

Please help its kind of progressed in a short time ?

it looks like one of two things is happening. 1: from the ph floating between 6 and up is causing a lockout which is causing a deficiancy. in my personal opinion this could be happening but the look of the leaves tells me otherwise. 2. although your last plants took a higher solution last time, you could have a build up of salts or something maybe causing a nutrient burn, the only reason i think this is the case is becuase thats what the leaves are telling me, it seems as the nutes are being pushed throug the leaves the salts are causing them to burn ,they usually start on the edges then work the way in through the leaves leaves cascading brown spots on the leaves looking almost like this / / / / / all burnt throughout the leaf. although thats what this looks like, it very well could be sometrhing different, esp if these same clones handled the same amount of nutes or higher, that doesnt add up, i hope this helsp and get that ph below 6...5.5 to 5.8 is optimal


ps: although they look good and big, they are only in veg and 1130 is kinda high imo for vegatative state, maybe im wrong though i run my veg plants at like 750 to maybe 1000 with the ones who really like the doses you know, good luck dude maybe someone else can further give you information on this problem

Thanks akknight ! Yeah Ill absorb the info and see whats up. Guess it couldnt hurt to flush and lower nutes right ???

definitley not man, that would actually be what i would recomend to do, add a little h202 even if you want, just a drop get that ph right and keep it right, check on it, have you calibrated ph/ppm meter in awhile? i always forget to do that shit, its important

Foliar spray?

haha sorry i was very vauge..ya i would say overnutes too...i have leaves that look almost identical...i made a stoned move and foliar sprayed my planted with nutrient solution instead of my foliar spray....too much nutrients burned my leaves and they look just like yours..the new leaves that didnt get sprayed with nutrients are growing perfectly fine. so if your not foliar spraying its probably over nutes for the roots.

THRIPS is the culprit for this damage !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lil bastards are eating my plants and I bug bombed them and killed al my plants but 9 clones I took to a safe room. I have a Raid Bug Bomb thread look for it
