Figured I'd start a new thread to get a faster reply. Its been about 7 hours once the feed and I noticed one my TD's is very droopy and has some spots on the leaves.. I used 3ml/L of Iguana Juice and 3.5ml/L of Root Juice. Water was ph'd. I went ahead and did a flush just now just to play it safe. Plant is 30 days old.

Any thoughts guys? My initial thought was nute burn. Other 3 plants are showing no signs of anything; looking very healthy.
 
I cant help to much really. Besides ask you. How often do you water?

There is also a 24/7 help section that you would get a faster reply too.

The only thing that comes to mind from my personal reading's(not from personal experience), is that the curling looked like to much N. This is just from what I recollect from reading on the internet.

Id wait for a more knowledgeable grower, before taking further action.
 
I water them whenever the pot's weight feels like Styrofoam.
 
I cant see a single pic.sorry bro.but if your waiting till they are light as styrofoam thats a little too long imho.let em feel like damp cardboard er something.unless your testing them like you would viticulture..?
 
Yeah im not sure about the over watering since the plant looked totally fine before hand... who knows though you might be right. The picture below are the plants before feed today; plant in questions the first one from the left.

Could just be reaction to the watering. One of mine always droops right after watering and especially if it is close to lights out. May be fine by tomorrow.
 
I've seen that on my plants. I thought it was due to ph fluctuation. I use Pro-Mix which is known to be high in ph. When I watered with 6.0 water I got those white'ish spots/burns randomly on leaves (maybe tips, maybe in the middle of the leaf). When I watered with 6.2-6.4, I didn't. I assumed the ph was fluctuating from high (when dry) and low (when watering).

I just ordered a soil ph probe so I can experiment with this more, and perhaps add aluminum sulfate to lower the ph of my medium (something Muddy does). That meter is also the same one he uses.
 
Thanks for the feedback guys! Plant is looking much better now after flushing last night. The spots don't seem to have spread. I'm still inclined to think the spots were nute burn and maybe a combination of nute burn and ph imbalance? Next feed ill start back up at 1/4 strength.
