light green leaves, tip pointing down and brown edges

This has been happening to my sherbert and platinum og but now my platinum blue dream showing some of the same symptoms. Any advice would really be appreciated.

Soil: happy frog
Water: well from tap(pH 8+)
Nutes: botanicare pnb,liquid karma,cal mag, silica blast,vitamino,hydroguard,fulvex,seaplex and dirt MD( I PH feed to 6.5)

I have a drip line hooked from faucet I use when I water without PHing. When I feed I usually use only about 3 gallons of water which I PH to 6.5

Looks really dry. What kind of temperatures are you getting? How much sun? How often are you watering? Those breathable pots dry out quick.

And why 9 different nutrient formulas? Do you have a formula, knowledge or experience that led you to use this big expensive buffet of additives, or are you just a 'more is more' kinda guy? That sounds overly critical, but I really am curious about why a lot of people take this approach since I've found that simplicity generally works best.

i really believe that when you use a complicated cocktail like that, you are dramatically increasing the odds of messing up the likelihood of giving your plant the right balance of nutrients it needs.

cheers and hope you get her healthy

If your water is coming out 8+ then once you add all your nutes it's probably bringing your ph down to about 6.5.......and I'm not real familiar with happy frog .....but usually decent soil will buffer itself so ph in good soil isn't an issue because it buffers itself ......plus ph swing in a soil grow isn't necessarily a bad think for nute uptake .....I'm in ffof and I don't ever ph my water just let it sit out a few days and sometimes straight out of the hose no issues at all .....but ffof does buffer ......you should test your run off to see what it's ending up at after it runs through your soil at 8+ .......just my opinion and own experience
