Could really use some help pics included.

I am soon at the end of my second growth ever. After my first growth using a 600hps I had so much trouble with heat that I swapped over to two 260w led QB's.

Ever since the roots hit the water I have had problems with root rot (sorted with rinsing the plant thoroughly, bleach cleaned the res 3 times and used large amounts of hydroguard) and defiancys. I am nearing 12 week now since germination and I am overdue harvest for about 3 weeks according to the website, I put this down to the root troubles I've been having.

Started using cal-mag at about week 6 due to bronze spots taking over the plant, I thought it was just the root problems and it didn't absorbe the nutrients good.
Now the problem keeps getting worse and worse in flowering and I am at my wits end i'm afraid.

Bronze spots is now starting to completely dominate the top part of my plant, the worst of them are so crispy that you can break them in half with a snap. The stems are slightly purple.
Main part of the leaves inside the canopy are green, darkish green and looking pretty healthy but top part is getting me pretty worried now.

Been using GHE with about 1/5-1/6 of the recommended dosage, and 150ppm worth of calmag.

about 20-22c inside tent
45-60% RH (using a demhumidifier but It can make the tent a bit warm so I turn it off if its hot outside)
ppm right now is 462 (and its NOT feeding! )
PH 5.8-6.1 its been pretty stabile lately, going a bit up

last week ppm was going down a bit and PH had to be corrected 5 times a day so I upped the nute in a waterrefill from 320-600 (it was eating fine at 500) and after it got to 600 it hasn't been feeding, I refilled some fresh water to about 549 and still not feeding, I took out some more water and added fresh ending at 462 but its still not feeding

I may add that the side were the discoloration and the leaves are worst is the one were I got two leds on it, the better looking side only got one (got a small plant growing at the back)

Anyone got some tips for a pretty stressed out and tired newbie? been battling with this plant for near 3 months now

I can add that the roots look fabulous, big rootball that looks pretty healthy!

Get a chiller, new fresh clones and all new containers and all your problems will go away.

think this will survive til harvest tho? put a lot of money and time into this

Your to far through to fix the issues you have now so you will just need to ride it out to the end, take off all those dead leaves there not doing anything now, I would have defoliated those myself anyway by now, it will also give you better airflow.

So water level is not going down at all? What nutes are you using and at what dosage of each?

If you're that far I to flower and they're not each drinking AT LEAST a 1/2gal of water a day,just chop them. Their root zone is done-zo.

Its been drinking water but I haven't seen the ppm move much these last few days. im guessing it drinks about 1-2liters a day.

Using GHE nutes at 1/5 strength with 150ppm of calmag added

as i wrote above its been drinking and eating fine til i added extra nutes and went up 100ppm, i lowered it again but still not eating. Thats about 4 days ago, but water is still beeing drunken tho.

How long you estimate before chop? a bunch of pestils have their tips slightly browning.

but the discoloration still comes, even after all my attempts to fix it. The Buds still seem to fatten up etc

6 weeks? Maybe more?

on an autoflower? on the website it said 9 weeks from germination, im about 12 weeks in now. But I credit the slow growth to rootrot I had that minced my roots, I had to remove 70% of the mass in cleaning it

Yeah dont listen to estimates, autos will ripen a bit quicker then photos but I would think you've still got at least 4 weeks, dont pull her early

just changed the res now, 470ppm and cross my fingers it will start feeding properly on nutes now. But its barely even smelling and with all discoloration something is definatly off! yeah about 4 weeks, ill keep up the good fight with maintaining the PH if it starts eating properly again. 4 weeks sounds good, buds need to get fat

still weren't eating and ppm going up, left it in plain water for a few hours and changing res again to 1/6 of the strength. hoping that works

how was harvest? did you get some decent nugs?
