We NEVER spray the plant unless we are treating it for something, and then we immediately clean any residue.
Plants breathe thru their leaves and roots.
Your plant was only breathing thru the roots and it was not enough to support the entire plant.
When you spray the plant, you tend to block the pores it's breathing thru.

Only feed in the soil. I know guys that claim foiliar feeding is the real secret, but I don't think so.

The roots looked good, thin but healthy. They just were not enough to support the rest of the plant.
Now that we know what happened, it easily fixed. DONT SPRAY YOUR PLANTS with anything except pure water.
And never spray while the lights are on.

I'd say don't spray period... unless you have a reason. Even then you need to be very cautious.

To each their own. I like my foliar applications in veg.
this one seems like a closed case. I’m guessing high ppm feeding with underwatering. Toxic growing media.
should always water to the point of runoff.

Can be done with benefits.... if you know what your doing. Especially silica and PGRs and for IPM.

Yep. As soon as I saw the feeding on the leaves, I knew what the silkiness was.

I just feel if you can feed through the roots there is no need unless you want to boost uptake of something quickly. Like treating a deficiency or previously mentioned..... especially as a new grower

Wish I would have seen the op post from start.
should have been flushed out. Pics are bad, and tough to see and know all the perimeters, but a 500 ppm flush feeding and backing off the lights for a bit would have been helpful.

I used to spray very young plants with seltzer water. It really seemed perked em up. As long as you know what you're doing, foliar feeding can work good. Just dim/raise the lights and put a fan on to dry before lowering the lights.
I lived in a much drier climate back then. I don't spray anything on my buds ever. I'll throw em away before I do that.

Keep in mind I alter the watering feeds, and generally don’t go above 700ppm in veg.

Supernova and Dark Energy by American Hydroponics. Smells so bad but is a awesome foliar in veg. Seriously though it stinks.
