Hey all, Hoping someone can give me an idea wtf is going on with some of my plants at the moment.
To give a bit of background, the vegging plants are around 1.6EC with Optimum nutes, Tapwater is 0.4EC, PH 5.5-5.8.
The problems Im getting are somewhat two-fold.
My vegging plants seem to barely get more than 5 or 6 inches tall before they start showing signs of a slight MG def and then the oldest fanleaves start to pale, then develop a few spots etc.. and they just die back and fall off.
My Flowering plants are also showing some issues, but I suspect this is more VPD related, although not all of it as far as I can see. I have somewhat typical inter-vein chlorosis, while the rest of the leaf stays healthy green. The other problem is that some of the leaves are actually distorted, similar to I have seen in a few other threads, where it seems as though parts of the leaf kinda bubbles / swells slightly and distorts the leaf.
The first 2 pics below show both what seems to be the start of the MG def, aswell as the spotting and dieback of the lower fans.
The 3rd pic is of a recent plant which has just suddenly taken a turn for the worse in the last couple of days, edges of the fanleaves are starting to dry out and crinkle.
The 4th pic is what I think is the "VPD" issues from my flowering plants, while the last pic is the distortion / discoloration on some of the leaves on flowering plants.
Any help you good folk can give is greatly appreciated, as its becoming quite frustrating to resolve the problems. Thanks all.
