I need your help guys. I have witched over to hydro this grow and realized after having too high of a PH for one day and probably too much chlorine that my plants were being effected with leaves curling up. I added epsom salt for magnesium and sdjusted the pH while prepared another 10 galons which I Ph'd around 5-6 and added just 2.5 ml of 2 part floro nutes to a whole 10 gallons. I have a cooltube about 16 inches away with 400w HPS. I changed everything out yesterday and it still seems to be getting worse. Here are some pics.

They look very dry mate!
what kind of hydro set up do you have running?
how are you feeding them?
how often do you feed?
What medium are you growing in?

they are in the General Hydroponics rain forest 66 aeroponics with ph of 5-6 range. Nutes are very light with 2.5 ml of each gro, floro and bloom in 10 galllons of water which I let sit for 24 hours. Its spraying steadily on them with no problem that I can see. Temp is holding steady at 75 degrees.

No problem???

ph range of 5-6, anything below 5.5/5.6 will cause nutrient lockout.

You should not be using 'flora' or 'bloom' nutes as they have an incorrect npk at this stage of growth.

What is your humidity level?

It's sorted out now. I started fresh again with distilled water instead of tap and I really tried to get the ph perfectly into the high 5's. They seem to be happy now so I'm going to just leave them alone for a while. I can see the new growth coming up very green and doesn't have the yellowing at the tips. The tap water had a rating of 116 even after sitting over night so I think there was some chlorine that wasn't coming out of it. I'll just stick to distilled water for now on. My humidity I still need a meter for. I was told that It would be a problem to keep humidity down wit hthis unit so I haven't worried about it but I'll pickup a meter today.
