Possible Rootbound?

Hey guys!
Wanted to get your feedback because my leaves are doing some funky things that I haven't seen before. There's are LBSD clones in their 4th week of veg going into five.
I started the medium with RO super soil mix and began feeding it earlier this week with 8 ml of PH Perfect AN line.
It began showing signs of over fert. by having yellow tips, which I thought was odd because the leaves looked like the ones posted. Could it be possible that it's root bound and needs a bigger pot? They are in 5 gallons right now.
And to answer the wattage question, they are currently under 600 watts.
Thanks for the feedback!

I dont think its root bound. It looks over watered, overfed. I would skip a feeding and see if things start to resolve. Dont give them anything but water at the right PH. If your vegging plants are big they are going to drop some of the lower leaves no matter what you do.
I give Solid bloom to my current grow and my Mendo purps plant always looked sickly and over fed after so I cut out that nutrient for that plant and its doing much better. Some plants cant handle being force fed. If your plants got really dry and you fed them nutrients at full strength you will burn them. If they are not "Tolerant" to being fed that way.

rootbound is never an issue indoors in five gallon pails. I've grown and flowered five foot plants in one gallon bags even.
every container size I've used up to 55 gallon drum had roots dangling out the bottom and twirling around the sides in veg and in flower the whole plug came out as one root bound ball. Rootbound rocks!!!!

Definitely over watered.

Still must be some nutrition left in the SS. What led you to believe that they needed to be bottle fed yet?

Some leaves began showing signs of phosphorus deficiency.

Are you sure it's a deficiency, looks like plenty of nitrogen from the first pics. How about any new pics since it's been a couple of weeks since the original pics you included with your first post?

Right. If you go back to the original post, I stated that the yellow tips came after feeding them when I noticed the phosphorus deficiency. I fed the plants AN PH Perfect line 8 ml/GAL and they ended up get a little burnt. I'll post some pictures later today when I get home :)

How about a 6' plant in a 5" square pot that's 4 months old.

That looks like it got too dry....u want

To let it dry out but never to the point of drooping esp in flower...

They're not in flower, and they were not drooping... I stated before drooping happens. it was a deficiency. And I figured out that there were burnt tips after feeding because I fed them while the soil was dry. I figured it out and the problem has stopped.. thanks
