I have 4 autoflower plants in a 4x4 tent one plant is a week older than the other 3. Dinfem Sour diesal, delicious critical jack, heavyweight fast n vast and a dinafem OG kush.
Recently about a week and a half ago i noticed my OG leaves "tacoing" or curling. I raised my lights (2 amare solarpro 300 cobs) and she went back to normal. Now though, i am noticing a strange color to my babies leaves, and my jack is not stretching at all, staying close to soil, and looks sickly. Im using RO water phed to 5.8 because im using FFOF soil. The runout reads 6.1. Id really like some advice.. i havent been watering very heavy, i have hygrometers to help with deciding when to water. My water only has GH rapid start added at less than half regular dose. I have added pictures of my plants.

The problem is the USE OF RO WATER. it is stripped of minerals.
FFOF is PRE BUFFERED right from the bag ( 6.3-6.6 ) by dropping your water to 5.8 is what screwed it up. I use regular tap water with FFOF and it was fine.

Also , there is no need to feed plants for at least week 5 while using FFOF .
It has enough to sustain growth all by itself. The problem you may STILL be facing is stressing an autoflower. They do not respond well to any stress , so would not start throwing all kinds of stuff at her. Autos are best done as " plant and grow " , no excessive feedings , no transplanting , no defoliage ..... It is prewired to grow to harvest within a small window of time and will not have the time to recover from excessive stress.

The ph is too low you need to be watering at 6.5ish. Ocean forest is just like any other soil it's not coco or hydro so up that. Toss those meters for when to water either lift the pot or jab your finger down into the soil. And those plants look hongry not hungry lol.

FFOF from the start? Water only? I saw pics of your lights but could get specs, what's the COB and smaller chip wattages, what distance were you running? I see soil meters, too inaccurate. How are you pHing water?
