Leaves are looking funky and Starting to get concerned

My Vanilla Kush has been causing me problems since the beginning, just not responding to the nutes like my other strains. i got the clones from a buddy and under a 150W HPS it started looking like in the pictures so i transplanted them, one into flowering and one as a mother. the one flowering has continued to show the same signs but the mother has gotten better, just not growing too quickly.

Could this be a nutrient burn problem or is it getting too hot in my grow room? temps remain between 77-84F

general hydroponics nutrients watering every 4 days or so at 1/4 solution. I think Vanilla Kush is just sensitive

So your feeding it every watering? Do you know the ppm of the nutrient mixture?

ya i always feed 1/4 strength when i water, ive been told there are different times to have different ppm levels but i could never find any sort of schedule. i know ppm is part per million but what exactly is that dealing with..the strength of the nutes or the hardness of the water? and what does the hardness of what have to do with anything?

im running the flora duo every watering, and flushing with water every like 2 weeks. i dont know the ppm cuz i just add it at full strength then ph it. im running humboldt mix now so ill see how they react to that because its holding a lot more water than my old medium

Ive grown VK before and never seen it like that. Im a tad heavy when i nute too. Every plant is different tho. I would just give her PH bal water.
The temp is your room is fine. I grew my vk at like 84-93.
ALSO are you flowing her under the 150w?

no I am flowering her under a 400W HPS, the mothers are under 2 150W HPS. I got 2 VK clones from a friend and vegged them under the 150W in solo cups then i put 1 into flower and mothered one. under basic nutes they exhibited the same problem except the flowering one got better at first then to how it is now. the mother's new growth is looking better now that i added epsom salt

using flora duo tends to make the plant go magnesium deficient. my local hydro store said to either up the a or get cal mag or u can raise ur ph a little. i decided to raise the ph a couple points and it helped but then he hooked me up with the new calimagic and im using that now
