Hello everyone, sorry for not posting this sooner

2x 1000 watt SolarMax/VEG - Metal Halid- Air cooled 3 feet Away running @ 75%

Temps are have been @ 68-76 at plant level and 70 inside the room.
Humidity has been 50-60 but they dropped to 25 I added a humidifier and have kept it at 35-45%

Running light 24/7
Rapid rooters starting plug.

Air circulation is good fan blowing over the top and two others moving air back to the carbon scrubber.

DWC - 55 Gallon 6 pot system- cultured soultions under current @ 67 Degress
R/O water - system is currently at 6 PH -Stable
40 Gallon Reseivor - 5.7 PH currently - 67 Degress
42 days since planted seeds

The first time I cleaned the system I didn't have a transfer pump so there was left over water which caused me to have N toxicity so i drained everything out put each pot into a 5 gallon bucket with air stones to rinse them out 15 mins each while I cleaned each 7 gallon bucket. Then I cleaned every single bucket with peroxide and flushed the bottom residue out there was gold color very rough build up at the bottoms more like rust.. They are sparkling clean now, the roots are white and in perfect condition.. No alge in the system but there's alittle alge on my rapid rooters. Don't think that will cause this? The system has been running 5.8-6.4 ph and the nuts I havnt really added anymore strength to it still on week 1 doing half strength of the cultured soultion 2 part mix, since I topped these plants 2- 3 times. Maybe nuts deficiency?

I did add co2 for 5 days and raised he temps up to 93 Degress and those 5 days they took off with growth. So I moved my carbon scrubber outside so it doesn't take the co2 out, but still still no luck. My room isn't totally sealed so after redoing the co2 2 times @ $35 I decided to seal the room first then add the co2. yesterday morning I checked on the plants and everything was normal, today I came to find the leaves like that with the curling tips. Should I do a water change and let the whole system run with just Ph 5.5 water for 5-6 hours hen add nutz through my Rez?? Thank you in advance, sorry for not posting everything the first time

what does it smell like give me a ppm test if u can also test the ph for me right now if u can
Ph is at 6 right now and ppm 200 (ec500 scale)
I have cal/mag at 1/2 strength and the rest of the nuts at 50% I'm using cultured soultions 2 part mix. I'm also using their UC roots alittle more the. Half strength.

by the looks of them they may be at week 2 or 3 bump it up to a ppm of 960-1140ppm ec range of 1.4-1.6 run some fongaride

Ok tomorrow I will do a full water change and add nutz at 800ppm, I'll run the 2 part mix at full strength and the cal/mag at same as there is alittle cal/mag in the 2 part mix. Is it ok to just jump the system to 800ppm right away? I added the nut feeding schedule here, I just didn't see any problems before this but I guess this might be a nut deficiency as you are have pointed me to the right direction because I see some leaves not forming correctly. I can't take pictures of the roots right now I'll do it tomorrow morning, but they are 100% perfect condition the water is crystal clear and smells great.

Come to think of it, since I have moved my carbon scrubber outside the grow room the co2 stays the same, I open the door to an ouside room and open the windows to that room to get fresh co2 inside. Can this cause a problem? As I have plywood the windows and doors to prevent co2 to leak out but the ceiling is a drop styrofoam sealing and I think the co2 is leaking right through that into the above space for the ac ducting. This has been like this for about week or so, can the old stale co2 cause problems like this even tho I vent out the room once or twice a day with fresh co2? I have sealed up most of the room i will try the co2 in a few days after I see healthy growth.

naa co2 wont unless it builds up to a toxic level it may just be a hard water issue damping off you're roots could have an onset of rot but that unlikely it could be just a water issue that will pas in a week or 2

Ok cool just trying to think of anything that could be causing this, but I will take a picture of the roots tomorrow morning and post it up so you can see, this is probably just a nut deficiency since I am not providing enough nutz thinking I'll burn them but they are 40 days old since seed and I have topped them 2-3 times already I thought I should of kept the nuts down since they don't have enough leaves. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out!!! I will keep you posted brother!!
