Hey everyone. Whats goin on? This shit sucks. just let me say that. I thought i was getting all my problems straightened out. I raised the lights to avoid the heat stress, foliar feed and was waiting for my pots to dry out, so i could water with plain water. Everything was going fine, until i went down to get some flics for my journal, and the plants looked like they had a rough fucking night. Alot more leaves are doing the same shit as before, so it obvious, my prob is not fixed, so back to the drawing board. Im cutting this short, cause honestly im so pissed, im going back to bed. Fucking plants. See for urself Ganja

If i were you Ganja i would go back to my original recommendation of a good flush using a flushing additive.
Then plain water for 2 waterings.
Then back on at half the strength you are currently using and just go water water feed until you see improvement.
Once improvement returns you can then look to go to 3/4 your strength or try water feed water feed at your 1/2 strength.
Can you confirm the temps at your canopy level?
Have you fixed the heat issue?

thats what i am doing now. Watering with plain distilled water. I did put a lens kit in the lights, so its right at 80 with lights on at the top of my canopy so thats not to bad. So ill just see what happens from here. I did all i can do at this point...Ganja

I am sorry to say that you have a bunch of different compounded problems. The first big mistake is the use of Fox Farm soil. You have to be very careful with that stuff because it has an unbalanced supply of nutes in the soil, so even when adding recommended doses, it will burn your plant (I found that out the hard way). Second, you may have a calcium/magnesium deficiency but it is probably being caused by excess nitrogen blocking it, and not necessarily a lack there of. Little to no nitrogen is needed this late in flowering and I have found that even when flushing Fox Farm soil, the problem is not easily remedied. I would not suggest foliar feeding unless it is with the lights out, otherwise you are going to further compound the other problems (heat stress, moisture, poor circulation). I tried trimming/pruning my fan leaves and it only sent the plant further into shock. Anything done to a plant including flushing is shock to a plant and it needs time to recover. Switching back and forth between different remedies is only going to help drive urself crazy and won't pinpoint the problem. I know you don't wanna hear this while your plant is "dying" but you have to try one thing at a time and give it (the plant) a chance to correct itself. I am going through the exact same thing and one of the first problems I was able to pin-point and fix was air circulation. I thought it was everything from deficiences, to bugs, to just being cursed...lol. This not only happened to my plants that were flowering, but to two plants during veg, so I don't think your doing that bad. The only thing that is telling me is that the problem has to be environmental or a problem with the ph/nutes. I will keep you posted, but try not to panic to much (if that's possible). Trust, I thought abt throwing all my plants out the window yesterday.

Hey Ganja- These are pics BEFORE you flushed the medium, correct?
Because things can get a little worse sometimes before they get a little better...
