24 hrs is fineAre you using R/O water or tap water?
Can you use the flash on your device, or turn off the HPS for pictures which matter (everything orange, don't mean jack, there's a sticky about this)
If you are using R/O, are you using cal/mag?
This to me, given the terrible pictures, looks like nutrient burn. You neglect to say how you drop the PH, but it sounds like you do it by adding more nutrients? Protip: All caps just makes you look crazy, it makes the things you write harder to read (been on a freeway? Exit signs are normal, not all caps? People read by recognition, not by letter), and... less clear.
With what you have posted, useless, their done, if you can make a more detailed post concerning what type of water you use, the nutrients you use, in what amounts, the PH AND PPM, etc... you'll get more help. Given the fact that you have to knock it down that much daily, you probably have root rot issues though. It's good that you provided info, but it's not the right info... get some good pictures, and take a look at your roots, check your PPM, and go from there.
EDIT: There's a good sticky in the DWC forum about beneficial tea, hit it up if then roots are brown, which i expect they are (been dealing with it myself).
EDIT2: If you go with the tea, drain once, fill with tap water and h2o2, let run for 24 hours, drain, flush twice, refill, add tea, but not nutrients, then in another 24 hours add nutes.
EDIT3: if you're using tap water, let it sit for 48 hours before you add it back and add the tea, flush with straight tap water, the chlorine will only help if the tea is on hand, but make sure you use R/O water or something when you add the tea if you can't let the chlorine evaporate, as the chlorine will kill the beneficials just as it will the baddies.
Yes im useing ro water! im useing heavy 16 nutes at ec of 1.0 week 4 of veg. Thats 500 ppms on .5 conversion anf 700 ppms on a .7 conversion. No cal/mag because heavy 16 has plenty.No root rot. Roots look nice and white. Have been using h2o2 for whole grow 1ml per 10l everyday. Water temps never get over 71( chiller).Anyone think this could of happened from light? Light is the only real thing i changed. Anyone know how long bleach stays in water? The reason for asking is when there was nothing in this hydro setup i put about a cup of bleach in 30 gallons every week to keep it clean. and yes before i put plants in i flushed res/pots with tap water.Ph still fluctuates for 5.6-6.2 knocked down daily with ph down.Are you using R/O water or tap water?

I'm pretty sure your buddy just kills plants, i use bleach in my res to keep things spotless and all problems have been user error, not chlorine...my buddy killed a good 20 or 30 plants because he watered them with a container he had used with bleach many months before even though he cleaned the hell out of it beforehand. don't doubt the power of bleach, it sure did make his grow room spotless...
Got some slightly better pics up any thoughts Mr ghetto?It's hard to see'em in that really red light ....
