Leaves tuning lime green/yellow and curling and twisting downward

[jayfury]

Hey everyone, Ive been a member here for a while, and have just finally started my first medical grow. Im growing in 100% Botanicare Coco, in 7 gallon pots, each are under a 1000 Watt HPS light in a sealed room with co2 and a scrubber. The 2 girls I have in there are Casey Jones and Headband (Sour Deisel x OG Kush). Im into my second week of flowering today... I noticed the other day that the leaves on the 2 plants in flower are turning a lime greenish yellow color, and the leaves are curling downward, and twisting.... Its almost like they are drying up and dying... I saw a crapload of salt deposits in my runoff pots, so I flushed them both yesterday (advice of local grow shop owner) under the assumption that I had fried them with nutrients.... Unfortunately, I was using exactly what the directions asked for, and the ppms of the feed was around 1200 consistently. The locals told me I fried the plants, and I need to cut my nutes in half now after the flush. Anyone got any other advice? Im using Aurora Innovations Soul Synthetics Nutrient line. My veg room looks great, but as soon as they went into flower.... poof, they look like arse.. Id appreciate any info.... I will post pics leter tonight.....

I'll just throw this out there but too much CO2 in a sealed room could spell trouble, you're probably using guages but just throwin it out there.

It kind of sounds like you're over feeding them and you'll need to do a few flushes then I'd stick to straight water and maybe add superthrive for about a week. Try diluting your nutrients with about 50% more water then you have been using. I fried six beautiful plants once and have always been a little over cautious ever since.

Purple: Its def not the CO2, I have meters, and I have an automatic shutdown hooked up to it in case it ever gets too high and the pm meter fails. Im pretty sure it was over feeding, and WAAAY too high ppms/EC after mixing the nutes... I needed to water the mix down by 30-40% to get the reading down. I flushed them Sunday, now Im feeding lightly and hoping that it turns around... Any other info is appreciated

I'd stay away from fertilizer for a few days and give them just water.
