Though maybe ph but I’m dialed in to 6.2 - 6.5 everyday
Maybe too much phosphorus as I’m in flower
Or calcium deficiency I don’t really know
I’m in hydro drip system 900w Viparspectra led
10ltr water solution
Gh nutes micro 7ml per litre
Gro 3ml per litre
Greensensation 1ml per litre
Bloom 12ml per litre
Ppm 800 ventilation correct intake out take and oscillating
Temp 17 -25oc
Dehumidifier 45-51% humidity
Also air stone as roots have arrived in the basin
On thé photos it just sprayed with a calcium feed and flower kiss from foxfarmsAlso air stone as roots have arrived in the basin
Changed ph flushed ppl at 650
Thank you I will sort this out I had noticed the ppl wasn’t going down either so I had a lock outThis is an easy one thanks to the good pics and details. You have textbook Ca and Mn deficiency from too high of a ph. Calcium locks out above 5.8 in hydroponics, Manganese even lower, like 5.6. Drop your ph to let it swing between 5.5-5.8 as it feeds.
The small brown spotting is from the Ca- and the chlorosis and larger blemishes is from the Mn-.
The affected leaves probably wont recover but the damage will stop progressing.

Thé lower temp is lights off as we are in the back end of winter here and 25 with lights on and for 6hr droops to about 15-16 thanks for the help btwIf I can offer a couple more pieces of advice it would be to stop foliar spraying nutrients in flower. It's not really good for the finished product. I'm confident that a simple ph correction will fix your issues.
Also if those temps are lights on I would increase that to 22-26 celcius if possible. You dont really want to be much below 22 if you can avoid it with the lights on. The temp helps to regulate the metabolism, transpiration and nutrient uptake.
Lol..I didn't say what the problem was.. nobody here has all his info or there to say what he has already done...but yeah,just start throwing misc.nutes at it..that's the answer..and yes I run 6.0-6.5..sorry if that don't fit in your books.Jesus, it's any wonder people are so bloody confused on here.
Every single piece of literature I have ever read on hydroponics states Calcium locks out at a ph that high. When I grew hydro I always ran it at ph 5.5, even when I trained in commercial greenhouses. Its industry standard for drip hydroponics in Rockwool to run 5.5-5.8, regardless of what crop is being grown. Not sure how you pull it off in DWC nugg but a ph of 6.2-6.5 is extremely uncommon, if not completely unheard of for rockwool hydroponics. And I highly doubt a ppm of 800 is high enough to cause lockout.
Add to that the fact that his plants are showing deficiency signs of the two main elements that are ph sensitive and according to everything I've ever read lock out over 5.8 in hydro, seems like an open and shut case to me.
But sure... tell the OP that ph isnt his problem..
