Did you use a chelator to flush the nutes from the soil? After a successful flush or two to release lock out, the plants needs nutes to get better.

No... I’ve never heard of a chelator, should I just give like 25% of the nutes to ease back in?
I'm not convinced you did a complete "nuke it" media flush. That can be accomplished in two ways.

1. Use a flushing agent from a reputable nute supplier. Follow directions.
2. Make your own flushing agent with a chelator or two. Advanced. Must know what chelator means!

If you think you flushed it properly, then you have to feed it nutes or it will continue to die. Are you sure you flushed it properly? You never explained how you did it.

You want to be 80f under leds .

Edit, I originally said light burn until I looked up the light and saw it was only 115w
However I would still look at this. Been too low temp will mean they wont transpire properly and compound the issue.
Plus even with a low wattage light if its a bit close and they have some mental lenses on the diode it can still casue problems.
