Hello all, I am new to the site, New to GROWING marijuana and new to hydro. I have tons of questions even though I have read numerous articles and forums, but everyone has different answers. So here it is in a nut shell. I am growing in DWC, temp is 70-78, ph seems to fluctuate a bit between 6.0 - 7.0 but mostly is 6.5, ppm is about 800, res. temp is between 67-72 - night to day. I am using a 600 watt Metal Halide but at 75% now (just bumped up from 50%, thinking light may be my issue), light is about 24" from top of plant. Plant is about 4". I am using fox farm products at 1/4 strength and a bit of rapid root. Her stem seems very strong and is getting thicker near newer leaves. Here is my issue, at least I think it may be an issue. It started with the bottom two true leaves, edges curling up and just the tips of leaves are a bit darker green. They also feel very velvety (not sure if that's an issue or just the strain). Please look at picks, any thoughts or am I am just being a worried mother hen?IMG_20150301_131440_363.jpgIMG_20150301_131430_992.jpg IMG_20150301_131440_363.jpg IMG_20150301_131430_992.jpg IMG_20150301_131440_363.jpg IMG_20150301_131430_992.jpg

Drop your ppm to about 650 for as couple weeks

Drop PH to 6.0

It looks good though. The slight discoloration at the the tips is probably a defeciency or burn starting due to your high PH and potent feeding. PH is out of range to access certain nutrients
