hey brozzas

i got few plants on 6th weeks of veg, in 8l coco+30% perlite (a lot of aeration) pots, under 4 quantum boards (480w total).distance between top of plants and boards are +- 30-40cm.
i noticed, that plants that are just under the light curl their leaves , while plants that are further ( 50-70cm from lights) are ok.
can this be a lot of light problem? i feed them all with the same nutes, 500-600 ppm all the time(this is 100% notoverfeeding). ppm from drainage 700 (+100 from intake).
any advices guys?

More questions lol
Is it an HLG 550 light? Is it on the full 480 watts, can you dim it?
You say in veg, how many hours is the light on for?
What area is the light covering?
Are your room temperatures ok?
Sounds as if the light is too close to me.
Raise the light to 60 - 70 cm away and keep an eye on them to see if it rectifies the leaf issue

What PH? Do you fertigate to 20% runoff? How often? Looks like salt buid up causing lockout..

looks like calmag deficiency, typical in coco. also looks oxygen deprived. did you filter the peat when rinsing and did you buffer the coco? how often are you feeding when you get +200ppm runoff? as mentioned could also be lockout from overfeed.

also what is your ideal date? what color are my eyes? how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? and does that come in beige?

Ignoring all the text, the pic looks like a watering issue (over/underwatered or moisture problem). You know it's a lighting issue when there is chlorosis. I don't see that... I see leaf spotting and other issues. Gotta drop the humidity and shit.

Oh man, thanks to everybody!!!:bigjoint: i didn't enter few days, cause first day only 1 person answered, so i follow his advice - i raise up quantum boards ,and guess what? PLANTS ARE NORMAL GREEN COLOR NOW ,WITHOUT ANY SIGNS OF TROUBLES!:weed:Everything is fine, coco is buffered ,mixed with 40% perlite to even more air circulation, every time i fed em with 30% run off, EC IN 1400, EC OUT 1500, PH IN 6.0 PH OUT 6.7 .looks ok, right?:blsmoke:

after i posted this thread, they doubled in size :oops::roll::grin:
