So during veg my plants started off looking great then started to look like Nitro toxicity, dark green, leaves curled down very brittle stunted growth. Plants were in 4" rockwool cubes. I flushed them then transplanted them to botanicare readygrow aeration mix and put them in the flower room to veg for two weeks. Within a couple of days they made a great turn around and started vegging great. Then about two weeks in to flower it started to happen again. They are now 20 days into flower and look bad. What the hell is going on. I have ran this same stain for a little over a year in the exact same conditions and have never had a problem. Any Ideas would be great.
