All of the leaf tips are burnt and the top of the main cola is light-burnt. I couldn't raise the lights any higher, so I knew I would have to take a small loss.

1. Could someone tell me what is wrong with the bottom of the stem?
2. I tried flushing with plain (pH adjusted) water but it doesn't seem to be getting any healthier. What should I try to do next?
3. Does anyone know what kind of defect the plant has, judging from the look of the leaves with the spots? If so, how do I fix the problem?

[align=center]PICTURES[/align]
1. Picture of the bad-looking stem.
2. Yellow-spotted leaves.
3. I'm guessing its a nutrient burn??
4. Top of the main cola (light burn).
5. Another pic of the sick plant. Help me PLEASE!!!
pic 3 honestly looks like a leaf I removed from one of my girls earlier that was dying off...it had mold forming on spots and yours looks quite similar to that..do your buds have a musty odor to them? no way to tie it down some to keep it from getting close to your lamp?
