Jeez, do you have any flyers (fungus gnat looking things) in the room? What is the pest situation.
See I thought they were nute burnt at first, you are getting all sort of conflicting advice from these replies hehe sorry.
But from all the nutes you listed as you were using... I would think they are more likely to be burnt than deficient! How heavy were you feeding them?
Bugs can def ruin your plants, from my experience there is no "little problem" with fungus gnats, if you can see some, theres definitely like 5 times as many you cant see. since your feeding schedule seems ok i a leaning towards a bug problem now, good luck let us know of your progress!
Did you take those clones off of the flowering plants? If so, how far into bloom were they when you took them? Looks like a P issue, in your babbies it could be caused by taking cuts during a flowering period and they are having the stress of going from veg to bloom to veg. Are you using bloom enhancers during veg period?
I would also look at the root aphid possibility. I would look at the roots and see if there are any critters I could see, if so, then I'd start working on a root aphid solution, if I didn't see anything, I'd run a flush, feed and see how they look. (and if you are using the bloom enhancers for your veg plants, cut them out and see what happens)
Are you sure you are getting enough iron, copper, other micro nutes? Im not familar with the biobizz nutrient line
You said the first week you used partial strength was it ok ? Or was the situation still deteriorating, would you say your problems occured the day or two after you went full strength? If you said you went full strength on "all" the nutes listed, you may have stacked too many nutes together perhaps? Could still be burn perhaps. Maybe try a flush and go back to low dosage? Also add some broken bits of mosquito dunk to your soil mix to take care of those bugs.
Yes I have a little problem with fungus gnats. Also with what I suspect is thrips.
Do you think that they are the problem?
Its not fungus gnats bro, it is something called root aphids. They feed on the roots and suck the nutrients out, leaving dead and yellowing leaves. Why do you suspect thrips? Describe the bugs for me bro, and their location. I've never had thrips, but I have had root aphids and did a whole thread on them. They are a Huge problem and must be dealt with swiftly.
BTW Gonats, Mosquito Dunks or anything with Bti WON'T kill them (aphids). Neither will Diatomatceous earth help at all.
Looking at your plants, that's where I would go FIRST, not last. They may not be fungus gnats.Yes I have a little problem with fungus gnats. Also with what I suspect is thrips.

My recommendation is to use Spectracide as a root drench at least twice, and leave it for at least an hour (til full media saturation, you want EVERYTHING to be nailed with it). Watch for secondary diseases, these little motherfuckers vector quite a bit.
We have soft water where I live.
You may indeed have bugs as well but I believe "soft water" is your problem if you mean you have a water softening system in use where the grow is located.
taken from a random site: What Is Softened Water
Softened water is water that has been treated, normally with sodium or potassium, to help remove minerals from hard water.
Can You Use Softened Water on Plants
Most of the time it is not a good idea to water your garden with softened water. The reason for this is that softened water typically has a high amount of sodium, which is gotten from salt. Most plants cannot tolerate high amounts of salt. The sodium in softened water actually interferes with the water balance in the plants and can kill plants by “fooling” them into thinking they have taken up more water than they have. Softened water essentially causes the plants in your garden to die of thirst.
Not only does the salt in softened water hurt the plants you water with it, the salt in the water will build up in your soil and will make it difficult for future plants to grow.
Hope this helps.
