Are you sitting down? Just kiidding...well live and learn. I will try and help you figure out what is going wrong, but 1st.

You say you are doing rubbermaid and everything is done right...Well explain it to me please?

You say you nutrient ppm readings are low enough not to have problems...clearly you have problems. So, we need to start form info/scratch...OK?

ppm/ec meter...make/model?_________________

tap or distilled/ro water?____________________

what ph is water before nutes?_________________

ph meter...make/model?____________________

ph after nutes mixed?________________________

how do you adjust your ph?_____________________

what kind of nutes are you using?___________________

how do you mix you solution?___________________

what additives?____________________

are you growing in a box...a closet....a room?_________________

what kind of lights?___________________

location of ballast?_____________________

exhaust/ac?_______________________

room temps?_____________

canopy area temps?_______________

answer these for me and maybe we will find something. peace later

ok, 2 rubbermaids which both drain into a res, top feed system netpots with hyrdoton. The drippers run all the time as the root just hang.

sunleaves tds meter not sure model

Well water 220ppm

i use a ph standard water kit(not elec.)

ph is about 7.5 before anything

never checked ph after nutes add, i just ph it to 5.8

i use ph down from the store

Pure blend pro bloom and liquid karma

i just put in ussually half recomended and stir

liquid karma

closet 4x8 (4x3 actually grow space)

balast is in the room

exhaust 465cfm blower+carbon filter

room temps 80/68

Wow...sounds good. temps you want to try and get into low 70's in flower. It looks like toxic salt build-up???despite all the measures you took...I am kind of stumped. Heat can also contribute to those problems...what is humidity in closet?
best thing I can advise is flush completely.

perhaps you can get them back on track, but from the looks of them, the damage is done. I would consider flushing and taking the most damaged plants and harvesting them. leave the healthy one/s to finish. I use the exact system (partially, I have so many different systems)(right now I am vegging in this type of drip system and transfer to bubblers for flowering)
and you shouldn't have any problems with this. Anyway goodluck and let me know what you decide to do>>>When you start again...we will go from scratch. peace

oops

[JackdaWack]

humididty is at 40% which def. contributes to anything bad happening faster. It could be toxic build up too much salts stuck in the net pots, i keep flushing it, but maybe it only works so well. yeah im so close to harvesting them all anyway. At this point i cant even tell if she is comming back around. Unfortunately the damage is done. but the buds are still lookin ok and very resinous. NOt a complete waste, however her buds would have been alot faTTER, well see hows she smokes. thank you every one for your concerns input and advice. Sometimes even if you dont get help the support is all you need.

[JackdaWack]

i think combined, organic nutes, with rockwool 1" cubes + hydroton, is the problem, ive been noticing what i thought was little root rot, was nutes just chillin all up and over the roots. now in the pots i dont kno cause i cant see in them and flushing doesnt seem to work. you need to us your foilar spray bottle on jet to get it off. now the sick plants roots arent bad they look very good and i dont see any build up like on some of the others, however inside the pot may be diferent ive spent a good 30 mins diggin out hydroton and just spraying the roots, getting rid of any excess build up. i think with the rockwool its killing the abilty for the water to just run strait down and out. I would seriously crack up if this was a strain llike jack herrer, and ofcourse i have no idea. well bag seeds will do this i guess.

[JackdaWack]

ok, as im nearing the end of my pacience, i harvested her, she got some nice buds, and to my surprise there purple, didnt see this until now, really not sure how i missed it, i think the strain is trainwreck. Anyways back to my other babies so i dont ruin the rest of them. thnx guys, i tired to take some picks of her manicured but my camera kept spittin out blurry picks i need to get a tripod.

I'm guessing your roots are all white and healthy looking underneath? I'm really having trouble believing that even being off by 100ppm or something would drop that plant like that. You have the waterfarms right? Can you block the one off seperately and perhaps get some distilled water to try? I;m just throwing things out here because I really have no clue....those curled twisty leaves.....???

well Jack you could get another small pump and run a seperate rez to test with...peace
