I'm growing some violator kush with DWC hydro. I keep getting burnt looking tips and rusty colored burnt looking edges. It looks like nute burn but I cant see them being burnt with low ppm. Is it lloking like this due to how low it is?

Sounds like you know exactly what you're seeing but trust a little meter better than you trust yourself.

Ask another meter for a second opinion?

You could just have really sensitive plants, my Afghan burns a lot easier than my AK48 does, some strains just don't eat as much, back off on the nutes and see if it helps, if not start looking for other problems.

i just had a problem like that 2 i couldent figure out why my babys looked sick everything seemed perfect BUT my ph pencil need 2 be recalberated (sorry my spelling sucks) so my ph was off even tho it read on, i took it 2 the hydro store and they reset it, within a day all my babys bounced back, odgrop is right 2 some strains are sensitive i wont grow urkle any more because you got 2 baby the shit out of them
