What type of setup do you have? What nutes are you using and how much? What type of water? Looks like you have more than one plant? Are the other's doing OK?

I had a plant like that about a week ago. I thought it was a Mg deficiency but turned out I just wasn't feeding it enough. I upped the dose and it turned out fine. That was in soil though.

Jacks will probably work but for best results I'd spring for a true hydroponics solution. Flora Nova or Pure Blend Pro work well as do many others.

How often do you change the res? Could be a temperature or pH problem? Do you're roots get enough oxygen?

If the bottom leaves are turning yellow and dying maybe it could be a nitrogen deficiency. The plant will pull nitrogen from the lower leaves to feed the new growth on top. Poor little plant. Good luck man.

I think your problem starts with ph-tap water is usually around 7.00 and you need 5.8 max for DWC. are you measuring ph?

yea with a cheap fish ph tester don't have the money right now for a dig. tester, but the other plant is just fine and is in the same res. so if it was the ph level wouldn't both of them be felling the effects

Is that a clear container? Keep in mind that roots do not like light.

I'm no expert, but strangely enough I was thinking the duct tape might be your problem. I don't know what that stuff is made from, the glues - plastics, etc, but its possible due to the light intensity being higher near that plant (not sure if it is) that its causing the tape directly under the plant to release chemicals that are hurting the plant. Just an observation though. I'm probably way off the mark.
