to me it kinda looks like there is not enough oxygen for the roots to take up and nutes, or you have a lock out probably from PH or incorrect nutrients.
also i side note an oscillating fan will improve the structural integrity of the plant and promote a better yield.

hmmm...water is made of oxygen...i do not think thats the case...nor does it affect nute up take
it has been my experience that led's can cause calmg def...foliar spray them w/ some...
your right lack of oxygen would not lock out the nutes it would just lock out the plants life.
oxygen to the roots does effect the plants many ways the more the better when under water.
