Whats wrong with my plants.?

I have tryed just about everything I've looked at on the internet and it isn't working, my plants leaves at the top are getting crispy and folding in on themselves, I'm not over watering , I'm using Ph perfect technology nutrition, made for soil. I have 3, 400 Watt hps ballast going. I was looking at some post for magnesium and nitrogen defiances , and it look kind of what my plants are like but not nearly as bad. I've had these plant s flowering for a month now and they are not anywhere close to where they should be, 12/12 . I give them about a liter and a half of water if they need it each time, they're in half gallon pots and I m pretty sure there not root bound . My water has a perfect Ph, can anyone properly identify the problem here. Sorry about the hps being on in the picture I don't have a flash and my room is blacker then black when the lights are off. I have a picture I don't no where to put it tho, when I get it I'll edit the post

Half gal pots are way too small.....they are def root locked first off.....second that clawing is nutrient od, way too much nitrogen for those small pots.......thats 100% nitrogen overdose.....transplant to bigger pots asap and go easy on the feeding...goodluck

There in 2 and half gallon pots and my plants are almost 5 feet tall. I'll cut back on the nutrition. Or should I just shut them out completely

Flush them out and and stop feeding for a few days....when you start to see thing go back to normal (better growth) then lightly feed and use something with alot less nitrogen......its the nitrogen doing that.....what is the npk of your nutes......prob something like 24n or 15n rite?

A month of 12/12 with that much n i would be surprised if you had any bud growth at all....in flowering use something like 2-4-5 or 1-2-3 or 1-3-2 if you one of the people that like more p then k.......me ....i would use 2-4-5

what do I use to flush them with? And 1-2-3 2-3-1 , what does that mean?

Root lock!! With soil maintain a 1 gallon per foot of plant length. So if your plants are 5' tall you need a 5 gallon container! 5' and 2 1/2 gallons for a 5' plant is counter-productive.

It's a new kind that I have to combine all of them for it to blance the Ph (micro 2-0-0) (grow 1-0-4) (bloom 1-3-4) called Ph perfect technology. Has a monkey on the front as a logo.

The npk of your nutrients......what are the 3 numbers.......and just use water.....if you have a ec or ppm meter just pour it thru and test the runoff....and stop flushing when your meter reads 600ppm or 1.2ec.......butwhat are the 3 numbers on your base nutes.....

Yea so use 2parts bloom 1part micro....tha will give you 4-6-8the same as 2-3-4 or 1-2-3 ...get it

Bro just listen to me .....to the other guy , please just fall back your making him confused......you dont need 5 gal pots indoors....i use 3 gal pots and grow 2liter soda bottle buds.......just run plain water thru till the runoff is kinda clear......let them chill for a week and only water when the pots a lite, when you see them getting better then feed with 2parts bloom 1part micro and NO grow....and they will get better....thats it

That's insane I can't do 5 gallon pots, I don't have the room. What if I do a root cutting, where I take the plant out of the pot and cut the lower end up about two or 3 inches and add new soil will this help at all. I can't have trees growing in my house lol. I've seen people use plastic bags for pots where can I get them? And I just ran a couple liters of fresh waster through them should a do a lot more to flush them? My plants are still growing vertical there just not flowering, I just put my light any lower or they will be burned, I just tried to tie them down and broke my two top in half so now it's a one top and I made the broken half into a clone.. it's 4 ml to a liter, so I would use, 8 MLS of bloom and the the reglur amount for micro? Do I stop using grow if that's what u mean?

Then keep your plants to the height of your container. 3 gallons = 3 foot plants.

Yes....if its 4ml per litr then use 8ml bloom 4ml micro 0grow

Need more proof anyone????!!

Dude the 1gal pot to 1foot of growth is just a ruke of thumb.....ive been doing this for 20years.....i dont care about rule of thumb....i know from doing it......3 gal pots are all you need indoors.....yea if i want a tree and veg it for 3months then when i flower i would use 5gal pots but i almost never do that......

Great for you, but don't make it sound like I'm so insane for suggesting it....

He is a month into 12/12 ...his roots are done growing....if he were to transplant into 5gal rite now when flowering is over and he dumps the pot out there will be little to no root growth in the new soil....it will just make the pots take longer to dry out since there will be no roots in it to drunk the water......cut the bs.....i can tell your a new grower or you would know that.....

You know what....my bad lamopa for comming off like a douch but im really trying to help the guy and your just tossin shit in the mix.......i got this bro.....
