Guide for Diagnosing Plant Problems

This post has been very helpful. this is my first real grow and this sight has been a hugh assistance.
I don't get all the terms for the nutes, I guess its because i use FLORO GROW, MIRCRO & BLOOM by GH (general hydro) I was hoping to eliminate all of the measuring and thinking that is involved with the nute mix. But I may need to force the education of this subject on my self because my plants are doing something that I can't diagnose. (if i can figure out how to get the pics on this then I will post them)

A few of the leaves are growing winding and are deformed. the leaves seem greener than they should be. I assume theres something wrong in the nute mix (grown hydro bubleponics, feminized lowrider II from seed, in its 4th week, lights are 24/7, humidity at 70, temp at 70, PH at 6.0, using CFL's dual spec.) I could just be paraniod, I'm rentin' space to failiure since I've busted twice already.
Anyhow, if anyone has any ideas I'm all ears.
oh, and happy holidays to ya's whatever it is you do this time of year!
I grow with GH nutes too and i have no problems so far and if you use the correct recipe with these utes they are awesom!Sometimes you get leaves that are "retarded" and the greeness maybe cause of the strain maybe?If they too green and start to wilt that means you have a defficiency!If not you kool!feel free to check my thread i record everything i do,and ask questions!You sound like you got it down though!
Ifeel ya bro i went to prison twice,,once for dope,,so i only been busted once.

Hey everyone, have some problems with a brainstorm plant of mine. It has looked like this for a couple of days, and can't figure out the problem, it was in miracle grows new line of organic soil, but i had recently transplanted into fox farm ocean forest. i mixed some GH micro and bloom at 1/4 strength. and had just bought some pbpro since GH micro and bloom is for hydro. Heres the pictures

root bound, over water, under water. These are possibilities :idea:

I'll update this list as I find more usefull info
thanks these sites helped me compare the differences, i must have over watered my baby plant, the leaves started to curl and a few of the leaf tips were slightly turning yellow, i also might have had it too close to the light. but ill know in a day or 2, when the plant looks different. thanks

My upper leaves are slightly curled...but they receded back a lil today....but now i can also see some veins running through the leaves....i think it needs copper and maybe zinc or potassium....

Where can i find these much needed nutes?
