Thanks for the input everyone!
It has to have something to do with how far along they are in the cycle. Here's what I see:
A) plants are healthy up to around week five or so. Then things start showing up like some tip burn and the start of canoeing. Plants in the same room and conditions less than five weeks look fine, but I am still not confident in my own ability to diagnose a deficiency vs a toxicity. The more I learn the more many of these symptoms look similar:sweating:. I will say, my plants look pretty dark green by then... maybe too green... I think I am over feeding.
B) I keep the tops about 24" away from the exposed 600 hps bulbs. I have reflective hoods but not enclosed, I need the heat for the room. Plants look great but as they get taller and reach week five they start looking stressed. I measured last night and some buds were within 20" of the bulbs and the canoeing was pretty bad, but the leaves lower down and even shaded also were affected. Overall it effects the upper part of the plants the worst, but it does reach down into the lower growth too.
C) I am just about to chop and the leaves up high that are practically closed from conoeing are brittle and still pretty green. I will flush for seven days to make sure I account for the over fertilization...
