Yea man I've been late to class so many times because I was busy on RIU and lost track of time.LMAO! Im fuckin rollin overhere... Im baked and just had a visual.
LOL Oh shit!!! I gotta go pick up my girl from work.... these fuckin threads!!
and just putting this here because it got dropped off last page...
i really dont know what to do. im flushing with PHed water. have been for at least 24 hrs now. the PH still seems to be dropping. i added some up. they are getting worse. ill keep posting pics untill i figure it out, or they kick the bucket. for some reason my stupid camera wont focus so sometimes they dont look as bad as they actually are. the spots are spreading and starting to crispify leaves left and right. sigh. FRUSTRATING!
this was yesterday afternoon. the leaves at the top that are still green arent anymore.
its hard to tell but all the leaves are spotting faintly.
wtf
all the leaves on the bottom look like this now.
i really cant figure this out. i dont know what else to try. im hoping that someone can help diagnose before they die.
I don't think its killing your plant, but that really doesn't look like any of the general nutrient deficiency/temp/pH problems.
What is your humidity at?
You might want to try foliar feeding on a plant or two to see if that gets rid of the crispyness.
The only other thing it could possibly be is Mg def.Do I have Bad Room Syndrome?

The cause of inexplicable poor plant health and vigour may be a result of BRS.
Indoor air quality is lower than fresh outside air. Homes are filled with materials designed to resist fading, abrasion and time. Many of these materials emit toxic vapours at a low to very low concentration into the air.
Fresh paint / lead paint or solder / sealer, old or new carpet, flooring and other room fixtures may emit toxic vapours. These vapours are harmful to both plants and humans.
Newly installed flooring (especially fresh carpet) or wall panelling will often emit strong vapours for several weeks. The grower should vent the room thoroughly, remove the problem, or remove the plants.
(bhangman) The heat from HID lighting can cause linoleum to emit vapours
Grow rooms should (ideally) have most furniture and flooring removed prior to setting up. Inspect the corners of the room and closets for green or black mold. Occassionally, mold and mildew exists in the ducting. If possible, seal the central heating ducts.
Rooms with stagnant air are the most susceptible. Vapours will build up during 'lights off' when ventilation is low or off. Continuous or periodic ventilation will reduce the fumes considerably.
Other potential problems include: using 'non-fish-safe' silicone, pvc in irrigation, lead solder in old home plumbing, rotting insulation / asbestos, and fusarium wilt.
Note: given the numer of possible causes of poor plant health, growers should check all factors throughly. Pre-testing a room with houseplants might be a good precaution.
Your roots are definitely tangled so you can't isolate one plant and try to epsom salt it to see if that fixes it.
The pH dropping might be a sign, if they have nothing but pH'd water.
Definitely make a post in the sick plant forum and see if someone can shine some light on this.
