It looks to me that you may have a PH issue.
Make sure you flush with water at between PH 6.5 to 7,
then add some nutes at 1/4 strength to start with, and slowly build up the nutes.:bigjoint:

Thanks for ther reply Spike. I am getting gallon jugs ready to do more flushing with. They are still a little low but the ph up should get that in check. I will be glad to get this show back on the road. I was hoping to get my smoke on in Aug. Maybe we can still make it...

I did another flush today. I will be back on the nutes this week. I will start at about a 1/4 strength to get started. Does that seem ok?

your flowering plants should remain on "grow ferts" for the first 2-3 weeks of the flowering period or until you see bud sites forming, she still needs the higher nitrogen, if you dont do this you will see premature yellowijng and fan leaves will die of faster than you want, these leaves will fall off during weeks 3-4 instead of 6-8, the advise spike gave was dead on, fox farms nutes, if used at over 1/2 dosage will dramatically lower your PH, during a flush you should test run off and keep flushing till you get the soil PH as close as you can to flush water, also using soil nutes, salts build up pretty fast, for good success, monthly maintenance flushing is key, these flushes give you a clean slate to work with and ensure uptake of all nutes and keep your PH where it should be

heres a tip, i dont know how strong the nutes were before, but the lower fans leaves, see how dark they are? almost blue, this is from too much nitrogen, too much nutes, anything more than this and your tips will burn, keep this in mind for future grows. another tip an old schooler told me was, once you find out exactly what your deficiencie is, you can flush with 1/4 strenght nute solution, i have done this many times and fixed def's immediatly...this should be done when you can 100% identify a deficincie

Thank you very much for the info. I will give it a try and see what happens. I know my humidity is up to high in the bloom room but my dehumidifer will not be here until Mon.

I have a ac so it shouldn't be heat stress. I went from foxfarm to all bontanicare nutrients. I am using there line of stuff. Pure Blend Pro Bloom 1-4-5
Cal-Mag 2-0-0 Liquid Karma .1-.1-.5
Pro Blend Pro Grow 3-2-4
Sweet 0-0-0, Clearex for my flushing after bloom

the humidy during the flowering cycle is a fine line, anything over 70% is a breeding ground for pests and molds and all that other shit, 70 should be the max, as the mass of the buds starts forming they are moist and will add to rooms humidty, im sure you noticed like a 10% difference between vegging plants and the flowering ones

What do you think the flower box should stay at? I might have to put the dehumidifier on a timer to get the right levels..
30-40%??

Here is two of the plants that are still not looking good.
One of them the new leaves is curlying in all ready. Does this mean those leafs are going to turn bad to?
Could it be it needs more air? Should I just cut them down? Try something else??
