Anybody know what is going on here

Can you get your municipal water analysis particulars? They usually list the ions by concentration. Usually the water contains calcium, magnesium, bicarbonate and sulfate ions . These are benign or nutrients.
Sodium and chloride are non-nutrient ions whose presence interferes with nutrient uptake. Thus my interest, and my guess that you’re not on a well.
No well. I'll look into it.

I must of added this somewhere else, sorry.
I got my calimagic. I cleaned and refiled my tank.
Proper pH.
calmag then micro nutes. then grow, then bloom as per week 4 on the feeding chart on my first post. At first my plant looked limp. But maybe...fresh nutes..jpg

I got down to the root lol of my problem. My water tanks were too hot in the grow tent with 2 philzon 600w lights. my roots were rotting, bad microbes. LEDs are cooler my foot. I put my little plant back in my old cabinet which is raised and my tank hangs under the cabinet and out of the heat in the cabinet. This old cabinet uses 4 26w cfl bulbs and 1 2700k bulb. My skittlez auto plant is very happy now. I sold the tent and have built a new grow cabinet like the old one. And will grow my plants this way. I might sell my philzons and keep the cfl's. I'll have pics when I find my phone.
