Looks like a Mg defecincy.
What is your ph? A low ph will lockout Mg. But adding more Mg usually never fixes the problem. What nutes are you running?
Might try to flush with fresh ph'd water for a week, then work your way back up to 100% nute strength.

GH 3 part recommendations are way out of control. I would flush, then start at 3m-3b-3g (ml/per gallon). I've ran 3-3-3 on many a plant and although not an aggressive formula, it does well. Lucas formula works well also.

I would also try to keep your res closer to 70-72 degrees. 65 is a little to cold.

I've been taught that temps that low in a hydroponic system will cause slower growth. I never did any research on the issue, but my mentor Krusty was always adamant about water temps, and I don't know anyone that ever came close to his results, so I assumed it made a difference. Now Krusty is pretty old school, hell so am I for that matter, but I'm always looking to improve. Here's a pic of a cola from my last NYCD hydro grow, ya think I'd do better if I kept my res temps at 60? Show me!
With my summer outdoor (soil) grow on the otherhand, I do have temps in the low 60's, never a problem, soil tempers I guess.

New York City Diesel, grew it several times many years ago so very familiar with - used it for test run with 4 pots before ramping up to 12. I'm looking forward to flowering the Blackberry that's in the flower room now.

Lucas says you can run full strength formula on newly rooted cuttings, im sure his ppm isnt the problem here... People are easily tempted to blame nutes for plant problems, but usually its the environment. Whats your ppm of your tap water? Temp of the room with door closed? Inches your light is from canopy? 400w? 600w? 1000w?

That's wrong.
room temp is at a constant 75 f. humidity is at 40% light is on 24hrs ... 400 watt MH and a 460 watt HPS. both are 2+ feet from the top of the tallest plant. I've got a 300 CFM fan blowing basement air into the room and the door stays open for now... till the ladies get bigger and i get a blower and scrubber. water temps are 68 f right now.
