I have 4 plants flowering right now there about 36 days into flowering. I have what look like rust stains on my leafs. the leaves are becoming deformed ( real narrow and dead or turned upside-down). I am using general hydroponics trio. Im in the full bloom and ripening stage. And i use full strength. I watered today with just RO water and hopefully it will help. Is there anything else i can do.

Put up a picture of the whole plant or at least one leaf. Your explanation of your problem really could be anything.

Those charts can be and are very misleading!

Lets ask some better questions.

you say what you use and how strong you use it - Ok,,BUT-
How often ?
Every watering ?
Do you add anything else ?
List everything you use !

I'll bet you feed to often and need to add a Ca/Mg and you should add a "zyme" type product also.

So then.
From what I can deduct from your post is that your in soil?
What soil ?

I would use pHed RO with Ca/Mg added for 7 days and then,,,,,
Alternate with your RO water with Ca/Mg added one day and feed the next and do that through out the whole grow!
pH everything going in to 6.5 and use a "zyme" product like AN VooDoo or Canna Zyme or CYCO Zyme any liquid myco's supplement. Ask your local hydro shop for some.....OR start making AACT basic bio tea and use that once a week in place of a watering.
Add a Ca/Mg (I suggest CALi MAGic from G&H for the added Iron) at 3-5 ml a watering.....

I might adjust my answer to what you answer.

There it is...
Feed only every other watering!

Don't flush.
Water only for 2 waterings.
Then start the alternating water - feed - water - feed, etc.

I do suggest a Ca/Mg product at least every other thing again (add it to the water one and not to the feed one) at 5ml per gallon.
You don't have to use a zyme,,,,,but it would help the living bio's in the soil along with regulating pH.
Another thought would be to add a kelp extract.....I like Age Old Kelp.....This is good stuff for soil as it helps regulate nutrient up-take and good for those living bio's again....

Good Luck

If you are having rust spots between the veins and deformed leaves that is a classic sign of a Calcium/Magnesium deficiency or you have a PH problems. Or you are having a combination of both, but without a picture its hard to tell so you should def put up a couple photos of the plant from top to bottom and some leaf close ups so someone can pinpoint the issue at hand.
