Very suddenly my girls fan leaves have taken on a very grainy yellowing effect. It looks nasty and very unhealthy. I am not sure what I have done to chase this :(

The way your leaf edges are curling up makes me think that the leaf is drying out.

Distance from tops? About 6-8 inches

Even with a cooltube, that is close
 
Distance from tops? About 6-8 inches

back off to 18"


no exhaust fan

you need to exchange air in some way... regularly... they breathe like us..

currently only using biobizz bloom and Epsom salts. 4ml of bloom per litre
you :checkph: after nutes too and confirm 6.3 - 6.5?
)ph levels most likely fluctuate, my pen is awful.

get a hannah 98129 from amazon

$130 US and worth every penny..

20) What are the temps and humidity levels while lights are on? ...With lights off? No idea, guess would be consistently doom temperature

you need to be monitoring this... highs and lows are VERY important... like us... they need proper environment... air, lights, temps, food, water

I think your temps are the issue... and too close to the light... put your hand in where the top of the plant is... hold it in front of the light for 1 minute... see how much energy is there? it turns to heat on plant surfaces when too close. :toke:

you need to exchanghe air:

hope this helps mate... thanks for the info... makes it much easier to help you. :smokeit:

Thanks for all the help bro. Unfortunately for now I can't spend any more money at the moment. So the p.h pen is out the question for the moment but I will be adding it to my wish-list. Its a shame there is so much bad information around on the internet. I read that you can get within 6 inches using a cooltube. I have now moved her about 14 inches away. Regarding airflow, I have a fan at the cotton of the cabinet constantly sucking in cold air, ans large vents at the top for warm air to escape. A breeze also comes in as she is right next to a window. How serious could this problem be? Could it threaten my whole yield? I wish experience was easier to obtain!
 
Cant tell in that light but pic #2 might have some insect damage(spotting). Keep an eye out for pests
