Hello experts ....... I'm new to growing and have a problem with some leaves on 1 of my plants

Come an check out my grow for more info ...
 
Is the pH much below 6? How about the EC/PPM? Looks like it is calsium def to me, that can happen if you have bit strong feed and too low pH. Both makes it hard for the young plant to absorb that. If you have low pH and high EC, perhaps just correcting that will help?

Cheers MG. PH was really low this morning but EC was also low (0.7). I bought the CalMag and done a nutrient change today. PH has ( so far ) stayed at 5.8 today
The EC was 1.2 ( would have been 0.9 without the calmag ) it went down to 1.0 and has gone back up to 1.3 now

Feeding schedule into 15L tap water ( left to stand 3 days ) EC of my water is 0.1

15ml general hydroponics gro. 7.5ml micro, 7.5ml bloom
15ml take root ( Dutch Pro )
15ml ViTALiNK calMAG
 
Bro, I do usually keep pH at 6.2 in vegetative stage and lower it to 5.8 in flowering stage. I have had same issue many times when I try below 6 pH in vegetative, for some reason. I also have 0.1 ec on my water and usually run maximum of 1.2 ec at the peak of nutefeed when not accounting for calmag.

I think this issue was low pH, keep checking it every 12h for a while and correct. I hate it too but happens to me too everytime. If you check my Mazar -grow you see I just had my pH battle :)

Hope you get that issue fixed! Good luck and hope this helps!
