Clones planted in pots 2 weeks ago looking pretty good, now in the last 2 days, this is happening.
I ADMIT that it is hot in my room 84-85 degrees and humidity is low @ approx 30%. Using EJ rainbow grow and Bloom mixes (grow now) and watering every day/every other day. What do you all think is the issue?
If any additional questions, please ask. If you have a guess or even KNOW what it is, please tell me. Thank you!

BuzzBuddha and KushAsh- as stated, PH is around 6.0 or SLIGHTLY lower. Medium is Happy Frog soil with added Earth Juice "grow" amendment mixed in. Light I HAVE TO USE are 2 Viparspectra LEDs (one is 600 watt and one is 700 watt). Have to cause that's all I have and wife doesn't want big Bill's for HPS. QUESTION- is this too much light/creating too much heat, u all think? Lemme know that too. Trouser size is a 34 lol but I'm on a strict diet, so should be looser soon lol. Water has PH down by earth juice to lower PH and mostly was watering every other day (rarely everyday), but with heat that high....that's why I did it. Strains are Zookies and Forbidden Fruit.
THAT BEING SAID, I have a friend that has a degree in Botany, and she suggested a full flush, so that's what I did (it sucked). BUT I'm starting over, so please still gimme you thoughts though so I can re-start. Thank you!

1. .... read carefully.... THROW ALL SWITCHES ON !
2. Bump ph to about 6.5 after you mix in nutes and when doing simple water.
3. You got a lockout , and it can be corrected.

Thank u sooooo much!
What exactly does "all switches" entail? She said after flush to put in UVB for a short time, then turn all fans on high (prevention from root rot). Is that what u mean? All light switches on, including red?

Ask your friend was botany degree from trump university....
Scour the web for web links to “ Marijuana Leaf Symptoms “ , from there you can bookmark it for further reference.... flushing is for salt buildup. It only LEACHES the soil not the plant.

Don’t know if you have a ph or ppm meter , if not go get one. The PH range for weed is kinda tight in soil ( 6.3 - 7.0 ish ) and varies among other mediums. You CAN check runoff from time to time , but with well spaced watering and feed , the normal water you do in between would break up salt anyways without flushing full container.

You must allow container to dry up a bit before watering or feed. Blurple grows tend to require LESS watering AND feed ( sometimes 30% less feed ) because they don’t transpire as fast as say a HID grow. Make sure you have adequate drainage and not keep soil constantly wet .... the roots can become suffocated , rot , damp off , etc.

You can transplant ( upsize ) into new container and let her get her legs back. The new mix that will surround your potted mix will supplement her by itself ( and allow the roots TO SEEK the bottom . )
No need to dump the sink on her.

Ps ... good trouser size I’m 38 ... cutting out rice and pasta ... lol

You said you got vipars ... I used them awhile back .... both bloom AND veg light on.
Each color channel BY ITSELF is ridiculously weak.
