Yes I have.. if you have not over nuted them then I would suspect your water... I would flush them with distilled water and then keep using it.

That's one of two things:

1. Heat burn - take a look at that bulb and the temps again...
2. Mineral deficit (mg, mn, s, fe) - molasses will fix any of these, add 1tbs/gallon every watering.

could be the 3 things:

1. I did move the lights a bit closer, but now i will move them up slightly.

2. I use just tap water that has been bubbled with air stone for 24 hrs, i never checked my PH, d'oh!

3. heard molasses works great, will go out and get some. needs to be unsulfered right?

If, for example, it were a Manganese deficit (not in this case), wouldn't extra Magnesium from the molasses make this worse?
Molasses has a fair amount of manganese too, so you shouldn't worry about them canceling each other.

Yup, best is unsulphured. If the problem really were water pH, this would have looked very different.

My strongest presumption about this is heat burn.

Thanks for the reply, Doc.

It didn't mention Manganese in the nutritional facts of my molasses, but then again you only need trace amounts...
