Help! Failing miserably with 600w LED

Here are pics before lights on... temps about 73 degrees lights out.
The leaves look yellow. This could be a sign of nitrogen (essential for veg growth) deficiency. Even still, if you had it mixed properly the plant won't take it in if its too hot. The stretch is an indication there. My AK47 stretch like a mofo because of heat. It stretched to make room in between bud sites to keep cool.

Right - tent in open basement. I have 4 inch inline and charcoal filter - should I push air in or pull air out?
i'm currently growing with a full spec 600w led i used it for veg and have just started flower yesterday IMG_1811.JPG this is how far away i keep my light. and this is how i set up my fan IMG_1814.JPG temps are 28.3 with 44% humidity. and i only use a cheap argos fan. does your basement have good air flow?

I agree your lights are to high . I'd also like to know more info . What size pots are you using ? What nutrients ? What is your feed schedule ? More info might help narrow the problem down .

You said DWC? How's your water temp in those buckets? I dont see a chiller, and im assuming with temps raising to 90 degrees, the water is anything but chilled.

I failed miserably with a previous pro-mix run. This time I am running DWC with AN ph perfect line with ppms around 650-700, ph 5.9. This works perfect with my hps. Only difference in LED is I add a little more cal mag. The temp is around 73 degrees when lights are out. I need to check with lights on and will report. Same exact hempies are flourishing under hps. Again I sense this is a heat issue. Left the tent closed during the light period by accident and the girls took a real hit. I've pulled most of the burnt leafs off. Might be too late for these girls. One I moved to hps is rebounding!!!
