What type of grow light are you using and how close are your grow lights? Could you give us a picture of your plants in the whole setup?

Overall they actually look pretty good! Mostly just just a little droopy. What are your watering practices? The coco looks a little dry but it might just be the picture. Are you giving enough water at a time that you're getting at least a little runoff out the bottom? They're not big enough that you need to soak the whole container, but I think they'd enjoy a thorough watering in a circle around the base of each plants until you're getting some runoff out the bottom They're still green and getting bigger so you're definitely doing something right!

315 LEC 4200 bulb (new at it) and starting with flood and drain with the nutes mentioned (new @it)

.... they look thirsty

Dude you are going to love that light!!!!
That's what I have

Yeah I'm liking it already ...I was working with these ladies for a bit and didn't even realize, until my skin started tingling, from being burnt under the lights ...

How close is light...when my light is to close the edges of leaves would curl a bit...back off 2 inches till they relaxed.
happened alot that light makes them grow crazy.

Nutrient burn usually starts at the leaf tips of the newest growth from my experience.

That looks like a ph issue to me.

You said your ph is 6.1. Is that input water? I'm assuming coco is your media?

 

[Green75]

The bigger leaves with the brown spots...are they original from when clone was cut? Regardless cut them out of there

 

[Neenoboxer]

I'm using coco perlite mix ...ph 6.1 with all the nutrients mixed in. Should I ph down more to 5.5 ? My ec is also at 1.7 so I'm goin to try and water it down some???

 

[Neenoboxer]

my lights about 2 feet away... and I'll start cutting these burnt leaves...their burn started from where I got them from with more when I started putting them on nutes

if all those plants come up healthy. You will be swimming in weed. Good luck to you.

Overall they look good! I agree the spots look like a deficiency. What nutrients have you been giving them? Have you tried checking the pH of the runoff to make sure it's also in the right range? In coco you want to keep the pH between 5.5-6.5 if possible. Also, have you been removing runoff water after you water your plants, and waiting until the top inch is dry to water again?

It's neat to have another LEC grower in the forum, I've been impressed with the LECs so far! I also love how the plants look like they're in actual sunlight. It makes it a lot easier to spot deficiencies and keep track of the overall plant health!

This is the schedule I follow, about 30% less of the amount recommended . My ph running in is about 5.5 runoff is @6.5 ec@1.6 ... im goin to to water it down some more and see how my babies react to it. Thanks for all the help guys and girls!

Those are great nutrients, one of the best companies for coco!

This ebb and flow method isn't working out to be any easier ...
