You're growing in 3 gallon buckets, so why are you watering every day? You should be watering until you get some run-off, and then not watering again until the medium is fairly dry. Lift the pots after you water them and feel how heavy they are. Then lift them again when the medium is dry. You'll feel a big difference, and this is a good way to tell when they need water. You're definitely over watering and probably over feeding. Stop watering them every day! Your love is making them sick.
 
Are you in coco? What type of drainage? Daily water is fine in coco w really well drained or air/smart pot type deals but def back off the nutes. Some say in coco that u nute em every time. I dont! Just had best harvest yet i fed em lighter than i ever had. Feed water feed water gets my vote, and or back off the nute companies schedule of concentration... definetly back down the concentration if you are giving nutes daily.

I feel too many growers think of nutes as the plants food, when they are better parralleled to vitamins, the photons are her food.... too much of a good thing is too much... unless ur talking about smoking herb

Besides his last Pic I really don't see signs of overfeeding. Over feeding usually show up first in the tips of the serrations not the middle of the leaves. And he is doing a feed/ water/ feed.
 
Hmm... i cut of the dead leaves, and think i will do feed water water feed instead of feed water feed water.

But if its not nutrients, what could it be?

I am watering every day, cause they are compleatly dry.

But the soil gets realy hard somtimes, does that mean anything?
 
root bound
"if it's become root-bound. These root problems can cause the plant to become droopy, or show unexpected leaf symptoms or deficiencies (such as spots or yellowing leaves)."

Your soil pH could be swinging too much due to a rapid wet/dry cycle.

Some plants tolerate watering everyday. I find plants like more root space.

You could also could be having some dry pockets occouring in the soil if it’s heavily peat based.

Doesn’t look like typical nute burn. More of pH swing..

Don’t take my word on the pH. It’s just a guess to your situation.
 
„Canna flores“, so I guess you are growing in soil?! Coco would be „Canna Coco A+B“.

Before you change anything, or even think about anything else, you should start to water probably!

1/4 of 11ltr = 2,75ltr

That‘s approximately the amount of water you need to give them. This will cause the whole earth to be wet. And if it‘s „Canna Flores“ and not „Canna Bio Flores“ you should add another 10-20% (3 - 3,3ltr), to get some run off! Actually I think salts established in the bottom part of your pots, causing some root burn.

Like someone already said, after watering, you will need to wait 3-5 days before watering again. When you water the plants now, do it SLOWLY! As you said, the earth is hard because it’s too dry, I prefer to water again just before this point is reached.
 
Thanks!

Yeah, i use soil.

OK, i will try the propper watering.

Should i do the same with my smaller plants, in the vegg. Stage?

They are in the same size buckets. 3 weeks old.
 
Yes. Just be careful the first 1-2 weeks, before they really start drinking.

And I prefer to start wirh smaller pots, because overwatering is avoided easier. It would also be good for the root mass, when potting up regulary.
