Hey there 1 week into flowering bue god in DWC. I currently have 5 plants in a 15 gallon dwc using Gh flora nutes. There are about 5-10 leaves on my plants that look like this. yesterday I flushed and cleaned the entire res and the plants are currently in water ( no nutes) I think I Will start adding back a diluted nute solution in a few days. Will these leaves come back or are they permanently like this....Any ideas? heres the pic http://forum.grasscity.com/attachme...263856265-my-fist-grow-400-hps-dwc-seed-5.jpg
the light is a 400 w hps and it is about 15 inches from the top of the biggest plant. temp ranges from dark 68-74 and light from about 75-80. Water temp in my system is sitting fairly steady between 67-69..think i should oull the light up a bit about 24 inches? The affected leaves are typically lower on the plant, the leaves that are closest to the lights are fine?
ph is steady at 5-7-5.9 ...not sure what ppm is, ppm meter is broken and Im a little strapped at the mo, i was using straight tap water before ( very clean mildly treated water) with gh nutes and all was fine. when I flipped to 12/12 added RO water and was using lucas formula. I think Ill go back to my tap water and half strength gh nutes soon....do the leaves recover,?? Or am I better off getting rid of them?

I assumed it was some typf of overnuting or toxicity, and so that is why they are being flushed with straight water for a few days....Im just trying to decide ether they will fully recover and when I can consider adding back nutes. Thanks for replies guys any little bit helps
How many airstones/pumps do you have? I have had a similar problem in DWC and it was caused by the roots not getting enough oxygen bubbles. If I were you I would add another pump and more stones and see if that helps her.
hmm ok i guess ill give it a shot...i did until recently have 5 plants in there now i only have 3....i have 5 10' inch stones in there from 2 pumps both with dual outputs..think now that i only have 3 lants in a 15 gallon res it will be ok ?
