Nute Burn or Deficiency? In flower.

11162011-002.jpg

Hi RIU, I'm in week 3 almost week 4 of flower. Here are my symptoms:

-Top parts of plant lighter in color, almost yellowing (from being close to light I presume)
-Leaf tips on NEWER leaves are yellowing, don't see any burning though.
-A few occasional brown necrotic spots on healthy green leaves (Calcium??)
-New growth curling down like a rams horn, but NOT dark green
-Leaf edges and tips feel dry on new and older leaves, more pronounced on older ones.

My hps is 6" away and I fed a full dose of FF trio one week ago, and watered with cal mag 1TSP/gallon 3 days ago.(GB for the N supplement in flower), so that's 2TBSP BB, 2TSP GB, and 2TSP TB in one gallon of water.

PH - 6.6 runoff

So... what is this?
 
I'd say they look ok to me, I'd bring the pH down a bit, maybe around 6.0. I'd also say the nutrient mix could be 1/2 or 3/4 strength.
 
I'm not good with this stuff but the lightening startin to yellow is normally nitrogen deficiency. But get a pros opinion. Hopes works out man. Look nice otherwise!
 
Okay. Thanks guys! So I'll look at reducing my nutes to 3/4 strength and reducing my pH. Should my next feeding include veg nutes for the boost in N as well this late in the game? Or not?
 
I'd give them RO water to see how they handle what you've given them already. Then give them nutrients, so Water, Nutes, Water, Nutes...etc. etc.
