I am currently in day two of flowering, is this Wind burn or nitrogen deficiency or something else.

That looks like general wilting. Over/under watering is usually the culprit.

Shes not happy about something...

Need more info.
 
I have just checked the water level on the plants, and it seems to be fine, but I will keep an eye out on it. It might have been underwatered, since I like my plants to be light when light turn off. I appreciate your response!!
 
Temperature is at 79 degrees Fahrenheit at the top node
​Humidity is at 39%
​​Half day in and cubes seems to be somewhat heavy
​​​Have my average Ppm on a 0.7 conversion is at 900. Currently using house and garden full line excluding the magic green foliar nude.
 
With 39% humidity your plant will be drinking more water than it would at a higher humidity, and may need to be watered more often. If under watering is the problem it should react very quickly to a good drink.
 
I use rockwool, I like to use poison rather than organic pesticides. I have tested many pesticides and have learned that the strong poison products works best. I only would go organic for preventative measures. Gnatrol is my personal favorite to eradicate the gnats from my medium.(probably the only natural product that I would use to solve a problem.
 
Honestly, I was never sure of how they invaded my garden. Probably from the clone I received from my friends, but not really concerned. Root aphids are pretty easy to kill as well as spider mites. The only thing I am not confident in destroying would be broad mites...
 
How did you determine that you had an issue with them. Do they crawl around on top of the medium ? Did you need to dig down to find them? I am just trying to learn how to diagnose the problem because I am not sure that I could have found the problem if it were my garden.
 
I have had similar problems with these little critters before, and I was inspecting my plants when people mentioned watering. It's pretty easy to notice the critters where roots are present because that is their source of food. My root zone bulges out of the cube in all direction even the top so I was able to see those guys running around. For your medium try to dig down the pot until you see roots and look very carefully to see if there are mini bugs walking around. You do not need a microscope to see them. As soon as you notice them, take action immediately. Another way to know if you have any gnats or aphids are to put up yellow sticky traps. (if you notice one aphid on the trap more than likely all your plants are undergoing a massive infestation of them.

No offense Gelato, but that statement really bothers me. You're going to be consuming that poison. Typically synthetic chemicals have a very long half life, meaning there will still be residuals in your medicine.

I wouldn't recommend using anything you're not certain is safe for consumables.

Just my 2 cents...
 
None taken, I understand exactly where you are coming from. Most of the time I use the synthetic pesticides in the very beginning of vegging, only when I notice the critters. Otherwise I usually use a weekly basis of organic products. The products that I use synthetic chemicals I usually covert it to concentrate.
