Tap water. PPM from Tap is 110. PH comes out at 6.9. I adjust it down to 5.8 after adding nutes.

Mineral
Reverse Osmosis

Plant has been receiving these nutes for months. Clones where in strait water for about 20 to 25 days then back to nutes. I'll explain more below.
8. What kind of lights are you using? (HPS, MH, Fluorescent, Halogen, Incandescent "Plant Lights") One - MH 400 watt 18 inches above tops.
How many lights?
How many watts or lumen's?
How close are the lights to the plants?
9. What size is your grow space? 36 x36 Hydro Hut, Good ventilation
10. What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space? Temperature remains around 75 to 80 day time and 65 to 70 at night. Humidity hovers around 50%.
11. What is the pH of the soil? NA
12. Have you noticed any insect activity in your grow space? Black Flys or mosquitoes (rarely).
13. How much experience do you have growing? Just enough to be dangerous.
I took these clones from mothers that where 2.5 months old. They have been cloned for about 45 days total. 20 days of that was in a clone machine. They exploded with growth in that machine. Last week I transplanted from the machine to rockwool cubes, (rockwool was soaked and adjusted) I began a light nutrient feed using the clone / seedling chart. I began to see yellowing in the lower leaves so I upped the Nitrogen a bit. Not much. I started to think maybe I screwed up the reservoir after a couple days when it kept getting worse so I drained and refilled with new nutes. I uped the nutes to the growth stage which is one before VIGORIS growth stage on the chart. Mostly because I felt the plants may be needing more than I was giving according to books and photos. I know its not to much nutes because there are 53 clones in the same nutes and the others are a month younger than the ones I'm having trouble with. The younger ones (20 days) are doing good. No Burn. Good new growth.
Today I increased the dosage of Phosfurus ( justa little) because thats what it looks like it needs to me.
PPM was at 550 at first. I raised it to 750 a couple days ago. The yestaerday I cahnged the res and now the PPM is at 1250.
It may need a day to respond but I wanted to get this out there before its to late. Maybe someone has an idea of what this prioblem is. I see to many possabilitys in my books.
Anyone?
This is the 45 day old clone. It is about 8 to 10 inches tall. It is a White Widow.
That is spreading throught the plant. Fast.
Same plant
This is a clone from a Northern Lights. Total Clone age = 25 days or so. Total mother plant age is 80 days. This has no problems as you can see. This was a flowering clone. The mother had been in flower for 10 days when this clonbe was taken.
Here is the whole set up. The Older clones are barley visable in the upper left corner.
Enough Info???
