hi, first of all im a newbie and I'm not very good at identifying plant problems. I was hoping someone here could help me see what the deal is.

this just started happening today, yesterday they looked stellar!
they are growing in sunshine mix 4 soil, there is 9, 4wk old white rhino clones in 1, 8gal pot (LOL). the ph is right at 7 (which ive heard is high, but didnt have any problems last time at 7) and they have only been given Fox Farms Big Bloom once durring transplant. oh and they are under a 6 bulb t5ho, today it was 89f in their tent, could this be the issue?

here's a pic

anyhow to me it looks like the beginning of a ph issue.

(but i maybe wrong so take my advice with a grain of salt.)

okay so anything else that stuff on the leafs can be?
could the ph stuff be aquarium type stuff?
or does it need to be the stuff from the hydro shop?

somthing I noticed is that its only affecting 1 of the 9 plants, and it has not gotten any worse.

the ph down from AN has a surprising amount of weight compared to their nutes which are the same size.

so from the information I've gathered I should be mixing my nute solution and let it sit for a few hours, then condition the ph to 6.2 and the ppm's to 1000(as per advanced nutes feeding program).

does this sound right? and how important is the temperature of the solution?

its pretty important because a cold solution can shock them.i normally put my nuted water in the grow room for a while and that gets the water to a good temperature.

oh jeez. idk, the soil probe says 7.5 now
its SUNSHINE mix 4 which is pete moss and dolomitic lime i guess.
if the soil has dolomitic lime is ph balancing even necesary? I read a few threads that say dolomitic lime balances ph on its own ...or somthing =/
