Leaves changing color

Hello, fellow growers. I'm on day 63 of flower. Flood and drain. S.o.g. all 1 strain. In 1 small area of the flood table the leaves have started turning a copper/brown color. I looked with a loupe and cannot see anything that says bud rot. At least not now. On one plant the bud started turning colors also. I pulled the plant and tossed it. Day 63 of flower. Flood and drain. Typically run this strain 70 days. Started lowering plms about about 2 weeks ago. 3 days ago I flushed with florakleen. The leaves were changing color before the florakleen. I've been using r.o. water the whole grow. The pictures attached were taken today.

Growing in Rockwool.
 
It looks like they starved to death from no or low nutrients. Or they weren't up taking any. They freaking ate themselves
 
not just the leaves, but looks like the plants didn't grow hardly. That said, there appears cloudy trichomes like crazy, which is amazing considering how it looks like they've been tortured with fert. I'd just go with water only and let them die, harvest.
 
80 plants. Only 6 looked like that. All had the same feeding schedule. All the same genetics. Doesnt make sense only 5 would be like that and the rest fine. And the genetics are far from shit.

I harvested. Trichs were at the sweet spot for me. Cloudy and a little amber. Ended up tossing with a decent harvest. I was told it might've been a hotspot on the table where those were.
 
That would make sense...if it was immensely hot. Did the buds come out well after harvest still? They still looked nice even though the leaves were fucked
Yes. They were great. After curing they smelled and smoked like perfectly. Just those 6 were beat up for some reason. When I chopped those 6 cubes were also a lot lighter than the rest. My 1st time running more than 1 strain on a table also. It was kind of a pain. Just going to run 1 strain per table from now.

So you got good bud and you learned something. Sounds like a good harvest.
 
they look close to done. another week or 2. could just pull the plug on the really bad ones. or trim them down and let go with rest of crop. just adding more nutes to them will make them taste harsh.

not sure what your schedule is. im guessing you flush 2 weeks before harvest.
 
Didn't see it like that but you are definitely right. Im still fairly new to this growing game but its very enjoyable and peaceful for me. Thanks for the positive vibes brother.
no problem man! I always have to remind myself that each mistake will lead to being a better grower. if it was "as easy as growing a weed," there wouldn't be forums for help growing cannabis,...but still I head people say that all the time,.."treat it like a weed" lol. to each their own. keep up a positive attitude and you'll be better than most who claim to be masters

I needed up tossing those that were fried and turned out the lights on the rest for 3 days. It was close to harvest anyway.

My bad did not mean it that way, just saw the pic with the burnt or whatever the hell was wrong with that plant and it wasn't filling in where your hand was so I meant to say phenotype not genetics. But sometimes golf ball phenos are worth keeping around, I hope the smoke is burning well. Looked dank either way! Again my apologies about the genetics comment, I've been out of growing for longer than I would like and said the wrong thing. Cheers buddy!
