people need more info on what you've been doing with the plant to be able to say what is causing the reaction to your plant. :blsmoke:
I hear you Garden Shed, I'm in Hydro as well and had this problem form the beginning of flowering.

Here is a link to the threads, I don't want to hijack the thread:peace::

That problem does look pretty much the same. Does that look like an iron deficiency on your indica as well?

What brand of nutrients are you using, what have you been keeping your pH at? what kind of hydroponic system?
Mine are actually Sativas/Indica (arjan's haze)
I'm using AN Sensi AB
PH between 5.3-6.2
GH Waterfarms

Here is what I was told it was: Overwatering,Overwatering, Overwatering, then it went to Iron def, then to iron & Mg def then back to overwatering and so on...

I think that my problem touches on all the above a little bit but after reading this thead I think that the underlying reason my very well be a N overdose:-?

I don't think I can go wrong with flushing at this point.

I'll keep reading this thread, good luck!

alright well im flushing now with tap water, ph about 5.5

we'll see how they look in about 24 hours, although im expecting no improvement,
I figure after a week or two of just bloom ferts without the N, they will perk back up. time will tell, wish me luck :)

just a side note, you cannot overwater in a hydrofarm set up, or drip system. the water should be dripping 24/7, some like to give the plants a periodical break during night cycle, but they should always be on during the day. Overwatering a drip or NFT system is impossible, although you can put to much nutes/water in the resi but that's an issue all hydroculture can have. Aeroponics, flow and ebb, soil, can be overwatered. defiencies are caused by the lack of waterflow. Even if the tap root, or even a group of roots are submerged in the resi water below, the hydroton does not keep moisture and so the root mass in the grow chamber can still dry up and cause issues. You're plant looks underwatered to me and i find it odd that so many people are suggesting you're overwatering them.

i think your ph is too low. up it to 6.0-6.2. That way the plant can absorb the water beeter. dirt aroung 6.6. lush with straight water for a week and a bit until they start to drink regularly gain and then feed. carefull to pre mix food with water so its diluted before you pour into res as this can shock the roots.
keep water temp 65-80 degrees with a fish tank warmer.(luke wrm so you dont feel water temp on back of hand.) smokemlots.................
