I have a amazon system under 400 watt, I am having a massive problem whith my baby's. They are bright yellow
the sprayers are on 15/45 on/off I have added half the min recommended nuts as I have been told this is the correct thing to do (this is my first grow!) they have been through some stress as at first they were suffering nut burn so I changed the water and put about qtr of min recommended dosage for 7 days, this is when they started going bad, I have again changed the water and now running half min recommended amount.

The water in my area coming from the tap is running ph of over 8 so I have lowered this to 5.5-6 and has always been between this level.

the leafs have always been lighter as I am growing pineapple chunk and as they are mainly sativa i thought this was why, but they are basicaly yellow now with the tips dry and crispy. After increasing the nuts they have started to turn green from the veins but also brown dry patches on some leafs.

I couldn't upload any photos as only have camera on my phone, but any help would be much appreciated

Sativas usually need a little extra calcium and nitrogen. Your nute with the higher nitrogen rating will also probably have the calcium. (ingredient: calcium nitrate).
Adding a little extra of that bottle should help. Don't go crazy though. Add a bit and see if it helps.

edit: And what nute line are you using? please dont say floraduo

The standard way I deal with nutrient issues is to calibrate my meters, then change out reservoir. What PPM are you running them at?
