Stop spraying it constantly.
It cant transpire correctly and that impedes the uptake of nutes
 
Might have locked it up. Kind damn looks like it need iron but that's usually in the cent of the leaves.. I du no im not great at diagnosing problems just what I would think. If all else fails u might try an flush it and start a small light feeding untill its back to strength

Everyone's first answer to every problem is "Flush the soil and go from there." And while that can occasionally be effective, as a soil reset button. It should more or less be thought of as a last resort. You don't want to flush unless you have to.

And if you so a little research, the discoloration of your leaves looks like a Zinc deficiency man...

nick17gar[/B]]Zinc (Zn): Zinc does a little of everything, helps in plant size production of leaves, stalks, stems branches... Essential component in enzymes and growth hormones. its key in the formation of chlorophyll. Plants that have a healthy amount of zinc are more resistant to drought.

Abundance: this is rare. it can cuase wilting and death in extreme cases. but usually, this wont happen.

Deficiency: Spotting, bleaching of spots between veins (commonly confused with iron/mag def). Usually appears on older leaves first. It will affect the tips of growing points on the plants. Small crops due to zinc def is common. Pale/greyish leaves will be apparent (check for a nice shine to the leaves, if they lack some luster, they might lack zinc!)

ty bro...I tried clicking on about linkback and it sends me to a completely blank page lol...damn glitches ha ha
 
I dont know what hes tried. He said hes tried everyones advice so excuse me as im not a mind reader. Now, why would his plant lack zinc? There's a reason somewhere. Chances are its not absorbing what's in the soil. Like I said I don know just trying to help. Since you know the problem im sure he would like a solution. It looked like iron to me which exhibits the same sort of symptoms. Just tryin to help no reason to compare me to everyone I said flush only because he said nothing else worked and depending what hes tried flushing IS a last ditch effort which I assumed was the point he was at.

Point well taken.
And I don't "know the problem" I said it "looked like" the problem, according to the chart. And even cited where I found the info that corresponds to what his leaves look like.
The solution may be to add zinc, since it may perhaps be lacking from his nutrients, which he also failed to list. Except to cite that he's LOWERING how much he's putting in there. So perhaps that's where the zinc def has come from. However, if he looks up some of the causes of zinc deficiencies, he'll be more far better equipped then us to diagnose the issue.

And no, no animosity, I wasn't attacking your opinion, simply pointing out that it too often feels like the first suggested solution. Especially when he never listed what "all advice" actually means. Which also stands to reason... where did he get this advice? And why is he not in THAT thread asking the people who have already suggested idea's that don't work? It's like decoding half of a code and then starting from scratch with a whole new crew of people who have to start the diagnosis over again...
 
Main reason I asked is mine has sort of the same symptoms and if it is zinc I dont kn ow how to add it. Take Centrum silver and put it in the nute wAter lol I hope his is easier to fix. As I said I dont know much just a general assumption on my part. Truthfully I hope your right as I hate to see a sip plant especially mj. If I came off as a douche it was u intentional just this same sort of problem has plagued me and I hope it doesnt reduce my yeild as I have alot of money tied I to my setup
