Leaves turning brown, Buds dying

[bluedreams15]

Plants are week 7 of flower, lower bud sites stopped getting larger and are now dying the only things alive are the tops of each branch. i have this issue on a few plants but it seems to be popping up in different places around the grow. plants are in coco watering at 6.0 ph

Looks to me like its gone to seed perhaps. When they start developing seeds the plant will turn all its attention to seed production.

I appreciate the comment, i thought it could be the same but as there are no males in the grow, i searched for bananas on this plant and others but found nothing. Is there another way to see if the plant has hermed?

A friend of mine said potentially russet mites and another said ph at the roots was off. I can take more photos of what the tops look like when i get home, bud growth is slowed but not completely dead like lower growth.
