Need help.

Been feeding it the aerogarden plant food because people on YouTube had used it no problem. When it first started I thought it was a cal mag deficiency so I started adding that too and didn’t seem to stop it just made it grow faster. I’ve been keeping the PH around 5.8 as recommended for hydro apparently. My temps are room temp and my water is a littler colder.

Why are you growing a whole plant in an aero cloner? It’s literally just for rooting clones, it looks like calcium deficiency to me though. put it in a 5gallon dwc bucket with your nutrient solution(calmag goes in first) at the correct ec and ph then hope for the best.

Not sure what "aerogarden plant food" is, much less their ratios, going to need more info. what do your roots look like? Does she have a fan on her? Kinda looks fungal.
First remove dead/ dying leaves, they're just disease vectors at this point.
Apply Garden Safe Fungicide 3 foliarly, be sure to get the underside of leaves and nodes really well.
How does the aerogarden keep rez temps down? If there is a pump it's warmer than you think.

Assuming you don’t have a dwc bucket.
5 gallon bucket+ lid
aquarium air pump+ stone
Cut a whole the size of your netpot in the lid
Put the plant in the lid fill bucket to a few inches from the bottom of the netpot run the hose from the air pump through the top of the lid and hook an air stone to the end of the hose in the water.
Like $20-$30 in materials.

My brother grew a cbd plant in a aero garden. The biggest thing I think is that the res never gets swapped out. Your probably needing micro like said above, but you also probably have root rot and plenty of bad bacteria and no good bacteria. I would invest in hydroguard for this set up

Cut back your feed strength to ¾ for your next feed. The whole problem might be more is not better with you being a novice at growing pot
How are you testing ph? Could also all be ph and a badly calibrated or cheap tester
Odds are the more I think about it your using to much nutrients, the more the plant looks like shit the more you up feed strength. Like I said I watched someone grow in one of those and the aero nutrients don't need ph adjusted. So I'm betting your ph pen is off and your ec is way to high

The internet sure is a silly fucking place. The fact that you can find people growing in these things and telling others it is a good idea is beyond me.
Not dissing here. Just saying the internet has so much bad info it is silly at this point.
But yeah...going to need some big changes to get that plant turned around.
Get better plant food to start. You can start plants in that thing but I would not expect more than a gram or 2 from that system.
