Is this from N deficiency?

This plant was started from seed in mid to late July, in 3 gal fabric pots with fox farm soil 40%ffof 40%happy frog 20% added perlite, I'm using Mars hydro 600w led that I just raised to 20 in above canopy due to burning at 12 in away. The plant was given only non ph'd tap water occasionally molasses and great white mycorrhizae for the first 4 or 5 weeks along with 15ml of big bloom at week 5 or so, I have multiple other post you can see for the progress through the life of the plant in other post, my problem is around the time I gave the the big bloom I noticed a lower leaf turning yellow and after reading I thought it was possible N deficiency so I gave it fox farm cultivation nation 2 part veggie last Saturday morning and again yesterday along with 4ml of calmag last night. It looked good the first 3 or for days after giving the veggie then it was really dry and droopy so I gave it a gal of drinking water on Wednesday I think it was and by Saturday it was already dry and droopy again, should I be giving more than 1 gallon of water? there is about 10 percent run off that I dispose of right away, Do you think that this feeding will help my plant and how long should I wait to flip after the N deficiency improves?

It doesn't look like an N deficiency, this starts from bottom up, have you checked the PH? Could be lock out issues!
I'd defoliant a little and get some lst on her, opening up some air flow through the canopy.

I have her all the way bent all the way over is almost 2.5 feet tall without the wires, I took off some of the wires and took off my scrog. Hoping it goes away, I will give her straight water and check runoff ph. I dont use any ph up or down. But I am thinking about getting a general hydroponics kit along with some soil strips, I also thought it could be my tap water so I started giving drinking water

Pics through out the grow, alot of bonsai wires before but I couldn't see the yellow until it was too late so I built a screen and took of some of the wires

I never gave anything else besides molasses water and great white mycorrhizae
One time I gave 15ml of big bloom on a gallon of water

There's your problem buddy! Your lady is starving and needs some food! Stick with your current fert and pick off all yellow leaves... have you stopped the molasses? Also, have you been using the organic plant molasse? If the molasses has any added additives it will damage the soil quality.
I'd stop everything else and just feed with the veggie fertiliser and you should start seeing a response from her in the next 48hrs. Still check the medium Ph and Once she has fully recovered I'd put her straight to flower.

Yea I stopped the molasses a while ago. I'm gonna top off the soil and give her straight water when she wakes up in a few hours , should I feed every watering? Or just follow the instructions from foxfarm around once a week? ...Shes drinking alot of water, she goes droopy after 5 days and I'm giving her 1 gal with 10 or 20 percent run off

I'd feed her half strength fert against manufacturers recomondation and use this every time I water. In a week I'd build up to three quarter strength. I never water with plain water, And make sure I never give full recommended fert strength, I maintain any residual salts this way!

Ok hopefully she will bounce back after a few more day with the veggie fertilizer what about cal mag since I'm using Ro water ?
