ROOT ROT? Anyone tell me what happens?

I am on a journey to finding out what on earth is wrong with my girls. From what I come up with, its not over or under watering, not the nutes, there is enough lights.....so I am wondering what are the side affects or what happens to plants that have root rot? Could my plants possibly have that?

doubt it given the pics and description. I'm convinced that you have one or a combination (more likely) of a few issues: over water, nute lock, high pH.

Lacking any actual info about your grow, it's hard to tell but you've got the beginnings of interveinal chlorosis and leaf tip curling, both are signs of nute deficiency or lockout. Your girls are seriously sick. Flush your soil with pH'd water 2x the volume of your soil. If you're not pH'ing your water you're killing your plants. pH it to 5.9 and hit em with the flush. Then leaf feed with good nutes, not miracle kill. Let the soil dry out, then water again. If they're in dirt, then stop using nutes for a bit and gradually add them back in. It's entirely possible your choice of nutes is toxic. Soil has food in it so you're not gunna starve them.

https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/395770-ugly-plants-what-could-wrong.html this is the link to all the information on these plants. I have tried several threads to see if I can find out what is wrong with these girls. There is more info in the other thread, but incase you dont want to read through it, i ph the water to 6-6.5 and add bio-bloom every other watering, watering every 3-4 days. What exactly causes nute lock? I also ph test the soil and it is fine.

really hard water? heat stress? if it is not in the heat it is in the soil.

kind of agree, they are butt ugly. Try to use indicas next time to get shorter nodes.

maybe a shitty seed. I grew out some Super Silver haze that I chopped 39 days into flower that looked like that, I could not take it anymore. Sometimes things just aren't working right..try again..JR

Well, I use reverse osmosis (sp) water and the room is actually prolly a bit cooler than suggested, usually around 67-68 but makes it up to 72. Maybe its too cold? But im sure under the light it is warmer, oh who the heck knows. This is so mind boggeling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is what I was discussing with my brother last night. Purchased them from bad company, posed to be all fems, but werent. Posed to be northern lights, but might not be. Maybe they are maple trees? lol. I have 5 white widows and 4 AF road runners that are gorgeous so Im not going to go sick over these 3 ugly ducklings, but Id hate if the past several months were a waste of time money and energy. I guess we will see. Did you get ANYTHING out of your super silver haze? I figure if I get to atleast one night of r&r from these girls ill be happy

No i was so pissed for wasting the space and time, not to mention wasting the money by buying clones ( I will not do that anymore,too much money) that I literally cut them down threw them in the garbage, I couldn't look at them anymore.

i am a weed snob though, I don't smoke shit, even if it's shit i grew, sorry....JR

Ph is low, and light is too far away or not enough watts. It is no mystery. You have lockout and way stretched, looks like pots are too small also, so probably root bound too.

I agree...

The light could not be any closer without burning and I use 3 gallon pots, is3 gallon too small? I use 600 watt hps.
